Hey there Earthlings, Alternatives and Trollers. Put down that mouse and lend an ear. Welcome to The Bandersnatch blog where we talk weird, wacky and wondrous. I'm The Bandersnatch and I have no idea what I'm doing.

As you should know Tuesdays is book blog day were we talk about one particular book and pretty much run with it. Today's blog is on Into the Uncanny by Danny Robins.

I Know what I saw...

'The ghosts of today don't live in castles or stately homes. They're in normal houses and workplaces, witnessed by ordinary people like you and me. Now we just need to figure out what the hell they are – the dead returning from the “undiscovered country” of death?, Or the product of that equally mysterious location, the human mind?.

• Into the Uncanny Goodreads page

I came across into the uncanny via the podcast series Uncanny. Admittedly I listened to the audiobook rather than reading it however, I loved it especially since it followed four more strange and unusual cases not tied to the podcast or TV show. Into the uncanny was published by BBC Digital on September 14^th 2023. I highly recommend it for all of those who not only love the podcast but paranormal in general. I personally give the book a 9/10.

Danny Robins, Born in Newcastle upon Tyne, September 1976, is an English comedy writer, Performer, broadcaster and journalist who started his career at Bristol university ad part of the trio act “Club Seals” alongside Marcus Brigstocke and Dan Tetsell. “Club Seal” was a spoof archaeology programme of the TV show We are History (BBC2 2000) which was followed by a BBC Radio 4 adaption of their Edinburgh comedy fringe festival show The Museum of Everything. Robins would go onto write other shows for Radio 4 alongside several Children's comedy TV shows for CBBC.

Robins' interest in the supernatural has led him to research and write several Radio Series and Podcasts on the subject including the podcast Haunted for Panoply in 2017 and for BBC Radio 4 and BBC sounds he wrote and presented The Battersea Poltergeist 2021, followed by Uncanny later that year with The Witch Farm following in 2022. Robins also wrote the play 2:22 A Ghost Story which has starred Lily Allen and won Best Play at the 2022 WhatsOnStage Awards.
