Christmas Special: Return to Luibeilt
Christmas 1973, and two climbers have a terrifying paranomal encounter in a Scottish bothy. Five decades on and Danny returns to where it happened. Will he survive the night?
Christmas 1973, and two young climbers experienced the most terrifying night of their lives in a bothy in the Scottish mountains. The events that took place that night would haunt one of those young men, Phil, for the rest of his life.
In 2021, Phil told Danny Robins his story, and it became one of the most popular episodes of Uncanny to date. Now, for this special Christmas episode and five decades on from Phil鈥檚 original experience, Danny is strapping on his rucksack and heading for the Highlands, to take Phil back to where it all happened.
Is whatever haunted Luibeilt still there? Will Danny survive the night?
