'''''The Spirit Trap''''' was the third [[Big Finish Productions]] audio drama in the ''[[Jago & Litefoot]]'' series.

[[Ellie Higson]] believes that spiritualist Mrs [[Vanguard (The Spirit Trap)|Vanguard]] can hear the voices of the dead, but [[Henry Gordon Jago]] thinks it's all superstition and theatrical trickery. But if Vanguard is a harmless fake, then why have some of those who have attended her seances disappeared so mysteriously? Jago and [[George Litefoot|Litefoot]] investigate... And find themselves facing a deadly foe from the [[afterlife]].

* Jago has an elderly aunt named [[Maude (The Spirit Trap)|Maude]] who lives in [[Margate]].

* Jago compares the possessed bodies to a [[doppelgänger]].

* [[Percival Quick|Sergeant Quick]] and Doctor Tulp do not appear in this story, as producer [[David Richardson]] wanted to focus more on the character of Ellie. As a result this story is not directed by [[Lisa Bowerman]] but by [[John Ainsworth]].

* Numerous references are made to the events of [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Bloodless Soldier (audio story)|The Bloodless Soldier]]''.

* An attempt by time travelling humans from the far future to take over the bodies of their ancestors with the intention of altering their own history also occurred in [[Russia]] in the late [[21st century]]. Their plan was defeated by the [[Fifth Doctor]] and his companion [[Vislor Turlough|Turlough]]. Notably, on that occasion, the Doctor told Turlough that he had witnessed [[World War V]] in the 49th century, suggesting that this may have been the conflict from which the refugees were fleeing.
