BBC Archive presents...
The footage in this notorious report about werewolves conjured up by two mysterious Celtic stone heads, first broadcast on the BBC in 1976, has been described as a paranormal holy grail.

Thought lost for almost 50 years, Luke Casey's unsettling investigation into the case of the 'Hexham Heads' on Nationwide has been unearthed from deep within the bowels of the BBC Archive and restored, with half of its original audio intact.

The rest of Casey's missing voiceover has been pieced together via clues from a copy of the paranormal magazine Fortean Times.

BBC Archive's own intrepid investigator, Greg McKevitt, steels himself to take up a story featuring severed heads on sticks, an unusual theory about 'stone tapes' and some chilling testimony from Celtic archaeology expert Dr Anne Ross.

Don't miss the shocking flash of werewolf horror that terrified many of those watching at the time. And please, don't have nightmares.

Clip taken from Nationwide, originally broadcast on BBC One, Friday 20 February, 1976.
