Jonathan Ross Haunted Homecoming
Much-loved TV star, Jonathan Ross returns to the scenes of his youth for a chilling trip down memory lane, accompanied by Psychic Medium Ian Lawman and Paranormal Investigator Dr Kate Cherrell. Jonathan has long been known for his fascination with horror and the macabre, but when he revisits his old stomping ground in the East End, exploring its darker real-life secrets and looking for evidence of the paranormal, he finds himself in his very own scary movie…
In the very house where he grew up, he recalls a terrifying childhood incident down in the cellar, before heading to nearby Epping Forest, where events take a sinister, unexpected turn in the darkness. At the famed Hitchcock Hotel on Wanstead Flats, things get more tense as a malign presence enters its most foreboding room and they unlock ghostly secrets of one of his old local pubs.
