A Northumberland radio show will interview the grandson of two of the world’s most famous ghost hunters this month.

Phantom Frequencies, a paranormal programme broadcast on Radio Northumberland, features an in-depth conversation with Chris McKinnell, the grandson of Ed and Lorraine Warren.

The Warrens are among the best-known names in paranormal investigation and inspired the hugely successful Conjuring film series.

Keith Newman, co-presenter of Phantom Frequencies, said: "This is a real coup for Phantom Frequencies.

"Ed and Lorraine Warren are names that virtually everyone interested in the paranormal will recognise, and to be able to sit down with their grandson and hear his stories and experiences is incredibly exciting.

"Chris has a unique perspective because he didn’t simply read about the Warrens – he grew up as part of their family.

"The interview gives listeners an opportunity to hear about Ed and Lorraine from someone who knew them personally."

Mr McKinnell shares personal memories and insights about growing up surrounded by the Warrens' investigations and the supernatural world they explored.

Ed and Lorraine Warren investigated some of the most famous alleged hauntings and supernatural cases of the 20th century.

Their work reached a global audience through The Conjuring films and related media.

Richard Craig, fellow presenter of Phantom Frequencies, said: "We’ve had some fantastic guests on Phantom Frequencies, but this interview is certainly up there with the most exciting.

"Chris McKinnell really does give us a different perspective on paranormal royalty."

Phantom Frequencies regularly explores topics including paranormal investigations, unexplained phenomena, haunted locations, and the lives of those who investigate the unknown.

The show is broadcast on Radio Northumberland and is also available as a podcast.

The episode featuring Mr McKinnell will air on Thursday, August 27, with a repeat on Sunday, August 30, at 10pm via radionorthumberland.com and on DAB.

Listeners can also access the episode through the Phantom Frequencies podcast channel.
