Where To Watch 'The ParaPod: A Very British Ghost Hunt' Movie 2021

September 27, 2021

This page is more than three years old.

This page has been updated in 2021 to reflect the digital release of the movie, which is now known as 'The ParaPod: A Very British Ghost Hunt'.

The ParaPod is the first podcast to become a feature film. It will star Ian Boldsworth and Barry Dodds, who started their journey into the paranormal together when they sat down to record the podcast's first episode in 2015. Since then there has been a total of 30 episodes, as well as a handful of specials and sell-out live shows, which have notched up 2.3m downloads.

In the movie the comic duo take to Britain's roads in a suitably modified Hearse, going head-to-head as Barry tries with increasing desperation to convince his skeptical friend about the existence of ghosts at some of the country's allegedly most haunted locations.

It's not going to be a documentary as such, and neither is it a flat-out comedy film, but initial reviews suggest the movie promises to be tense and even scary in places, but delivers the ParaPod's trademark conflict and hilarity, under the tagline, "you won't believe it... but he will."

The movie has had its debut screening at a premiere event in London, and in March 2020 and completed a cinema tour in September 2021, having been postponed due to the pandemic. However as of September 27, 2021 'The ParaPod: A Very British Ghost Hunt' is now available to stream at home.
