Marwell Hall ghost hunt 11th April 2015
Winchester, Hampshire
Seymour Room
Equipment used :- Ghost Pros, K2 Meters, Mel meter, Laser Grid, Full Spectrum Video and Still Cameras, SB7 Spirit Box and Digital Voice Recorders in all sessions.
Session 1
As always ghost pros and K2 meters were given to the guests to see if any communication could be established with spirit, almost immediately the ghost pros were lighting to indicate spirit presence.
2 female guests were talking to a female spirit that claimed to be Jane Seymour and another that said she was the spirit of the bride who became trapped in a chest and was not found until many years later.
We started a spirit box session and noticed a female scream lasting about 3 seconds over multiple sweeps, this was also heard by a male guest. Were these screams of the trapped bride?
Session 2
This next session became much more active with guests interacting with spirit and asking plenty of questions through the ghost pros.
We had male and female spirits present. A female guest managed to communicate with the bride on several occasions and also a male spirit that worked at the hall who died in the 1880s.
Another female guest using a ghost pro was speaking to a chamber maid in her 20s from the 1800s and an older chamber maid in her 50s from the 1700s.
We held EVP and Spirit box sessions but no voices were captured.
Session 3
Activity started before the guests came into the area, as just outside the doorway our next group could already sense spirit. A couple of the guests were being prodded by “unseen hands” and when they questioned Steve (GHE team) he told them that there had been the spirit of the “house master ” standing in that spot all evening and he keeps prodding people. All of the group where taking photos in and around the area before we went into the Seymour Room where the guests carried on taking photos as they were capturing many unexplained lights, orbs and the odd mist here and there. Ghost pros and K2s were being used by the guests that weren’t taking photos but they were having photos taken of them while they were trying to communicate.
Michaela captured 2 very bright anomalies located against the ornate woodwork which actually looked like light bulbs but clearly were not.
Free time
We (Wayne and Paula) joined with Louise (GHE team) and the female guest and her boyfriend from Session 2 and went for a snoop around the building and eventually made our way to the room upstairs that Steve was using for all of his séance sessions, where we met Kerry (GHE team) and some of the other guests. We started to call out for spirit to copy our tapping and whistling but all was very quiet. After chatting about table tipping the huge table at Fort Amherst we decided to try table tipping with a large table that was in the room. The room is carpeted and the table has metal feet and was very heavy but we all gathered (probably about 8 of us) round the table and began to put our energy in to trying to get a spirit to move the table, which it did faster and faster the table then moved bit by bit across the room until it came to a standstill, then with no warning slid by itself in one smooth movement, amazing everyone, quickly back towards Kerry and Paula for about 12 inches.

Languard Fort ghost hunt14th March 2015
Felixstowe, Suffolk
Gun Room
Session 1
We used K2s, Ghost Pros, SB7 Spirit Box, REM Pod, Laser Grid, Ovilus 3, EM Pump, Full Spectrum Video Camera and Digital Voice Recorder throughout the sessions.
Guests used the ghost pros and K2s with great success having a lot of activity and communication throughout the session, all K2s showing the same light pattern and spikes at exactly the same time. A male spirit communicated through the ghost pro with one of the guests establishing that he was killed in an explosion on one of the staircases within the fort. We also had a female spirit called “Jane”, she was killed outside the fort in the mouth of the river by her sister “Carol” who was jealous over a man in 1864. She was in her 20’s. “Jane” admitted pulling a guests hair at least 3 or 4 times during our communication with her, I (Wayne) asked the guest what her name was, Jasmine she said, then she added but my middle name is “Jane”.
Session 2
We had activity with the K2s and ghost pros again communicating with the spirit of “Jane” while another guest had a female spirit with the initials “G” and “A” we later managed to confirm this spirit as “Gladys” she also stated that she was the auntie of “Jane” and “Carol” and knew about the terrible act carried out on “Jane” by her sister.
Session 3
A quieter session in terms of K2 and Ghost Pro activity but we had some great responses on the SB7 in this session, capturing 2 male spirit voices through the spirit box both stating their names “Bill” and “Danny” respectively. One guest decided to roll a coin to the other end of the room past everyone into a clear space, we all watched it roll past and heard it come to a stop before it reached the doors, the guest then asked if any of the spirits present could roll it back to him, we heard a slight thud in the direction of where the coin would be but nothing else happened so we asked again. When nothing happened this time we went to where the coin had stopped, but it had disappeared the whole group looked for it throughout the room, underneath the mock cannon, in the cracks in the floor (which weren’t deep enough or open enough to hide a coin) and in the corners of the window recesses but the coin was never found. We done another SB7 spirit box session and asked if “Bill” or “Danny” were still present and if either of them had taken the coin to which we had an answer from “Bill” saying “Yep” in very smug sounding tone.

Fort Borstal ghost hunt 28th February 2015
Rochester, Kent
Hub Corridor with Carl
Session 1
Guests were handed ghost pros and K2 meters at the start of the session and briefed on how to use them.
Activity started almost immediately with all the K2s lighting at the same time into the red zone.
The ghost pros were active with spirit throughout the session.
Carl placed an interactive EMF bear at the end of the corridor with the laser grid set up pointing at the bear with the grid positioned on the bear’s nose so we could determine whether or not spirit had moved the bear. The bear was picking up on some type of activity as it lit indicating EMF spikes and temperature changes quite frequently during the session.
A voice that sounded like a “clearing of the throat” was heard in between Paula and myself (Wayne) which was distinctly not human. I sensed the spirit of a nurse in the area called “Alice” but this wasn’t confirmed by any communication devices, we also sensed a male spirit standing at the wooden doors towards the outside areas.
Session 2
(VIPs and Kym)
K2s and ghost pros were again active during the session with plenty of spiking into the red zone.
As with session 1 a few of us sensed the male spirit watching us from the same double doors. Myself, Carl, Louise and Emma (guests) could make out a solid shadow figure staring back at us with his arms crossed and leaning against the wall with his legs also crossed. He would move position every so often almost like his legs were stiffening up. So Carl used the thermal imaging camera focusing on the doors to see if he could document this. He managed to get a small dark mass to show on the screen and also a couple of temperature hits were also captured. We then attempted to communicate with this or any other spirit through the SB7 but had no voices come through.
Session 3
This last session became rather quiet, the guests were still having activity on the K2s and ghost pros but the bear was inactive and also no voices were captured on the SB7.

Explosion Museum ghost hunt 7th February
Gosport, Hampshire
Missile Room and Cottages with Carl
Session 1
First of all we gave the guests a walk around as it was such a large area to show them where they could go and to give a brief summary of the location that we would be investigating.
A couple decided to go through to the cottages leading off from the main missile room while the rest of the guests spread out nicely throughout the area. Carl had placed REM Pods around the room, one of which he had placed on an old coffin carrier at the back of the room with an interactive bear. We also had a laser grid setup in the middle of the area. Guests were given ghost pros and K2 meters to communicate with spirit.
One of the guests in particular had amazing activity through her ghost pro, she established that a little girl named Carly aged 5 was with her and seemed to be following her as she moved around the area and the reason she had so much interaction with the guest (Stevie) was because she looked like her mum, most of this activity happened in the second part of the room but away from the coffin carrier where the REM Pod and bear had been placed. The next moment we were all called by Carl to go to the bear which was on the coffin carrier as it was alarming constantly and lit up like a Christmas tree as was the REM Pod.
Carly would then only communicate when Stevie asked a question or if Stevie asked her to cuddle the bear.
There was also another female spirit present in that area, a lady between 20-30 who could apparently see us which was established using the ghost pros.
As there were 2 spirits present we decided to use the SB7 which Carly came through on. She answered Stevie 4 times but we were unable to make out what she said but we could tell that the voice was that of a little girl with tone to her voice although some of us heard her say what we thought was her name “Carly” but couldn’t all be sure.
At the end of the session I spoke to the couple who were in the cottages for most of the time, they also found some unexplained goings on.
They had taken a K2 meter with them and started to call out and noticed that every time they mentioned the word “Explosion” the K2 went into the red so they decided to take photos on their phone whilst saying “Explosion” they had 2 pictures that were completely normal but the other 2 when they actually said “Explosion” had what looked like dust and shrapnel flying in to the room exactly as if an “Explosion” had happened outside and was blowing in to the room.
Session 2
Again we had a walk around with the guests. This time husband and wife guests managed to make contact with 2 spirits almost straight away using ghost pros.
They were both child spirits, a brother and sister that lived in the cottages but were playing in the missile room, running around and giggling. We then decided to bring the interactive bear and vibe pod over into the area where the guests said the children are playing and hiding.
The vibe pod and bear both lit up at times when it was claimed by the guests that the little girl was walking towards the bear, this was then also confirmed by the SB7 as a little girls voice came through saying “Happy” and “Teddy”.
We then lead the guests through to the cottages where again the word “Explosion” was used and triggered something as the K2 meter went into the red and almost immediately afterwards I (Wayne) had to leave the area feeling quite sick as did one of the guests.
Session 3
This last session became very quiet in the way of any activity. We had some movement on the K2s and also heard some footsteps which we all followed but Carl was at the front of the queue and saw with his own eyes a large shadow figure running through the missile room. We all went to investigate to see if anyone was in there mucking about but found no one.
We also tried for a time in the cottages with a laser grid but the only activity was with a guest that was using his own pendulum.

Shire Hall ghost hunt 24th January
Hereford, Herefordshire
Courtroom 2 and Cells with Sean
Session 1
We used ghost pros, Mel meters and SB7
We handed out ghost pros to the guests who were quite happy to go off to investigate the areas.
Near the toilet at the end of the cell corridor the guests managed to get information of a male spirit in his 30’s with a horse and cart who was hung, his wife didn’t live long after his death, they also had children and claimed to be together as a family.
In the cell areas we had good activity with guests and team experiencing feelings, smells and being physically touched.
Sean and Wayne had feelings in cell 4 of dizziness and headaches but only in this cell
Wayne used the SB7 in cell 4 and heard the name “Brian” and shortly after “get out!” came through and at the same time felt a brushing across the left ear while Sean at exactly the same time whilst standing in the doorway of cell 4 felt his shoulder being grabbed.
Paula felt “cobwebs” across her face in the cell corridor near the toilet and also noticed towards the end of the session that cell 2 had its panic alarm light on which we then turned off.
Session 2
We used ghost pros, Mel meters and SB7
Again we handed out ghost pros to the guests who incidentally we all female and in their early 20’s. Ghost pros were lighting straight away so we split the guests into pairs and put each pair in to a cell and shut the doors. They all had some communication on the ghost pros.
Sean then brought all the guests back to cell 4 and asked them to stand in a circle to build energy, which had an effect on a spirit in cell 3 as it seemed as though it was a male spirit trying to push past Wayne and Paula who were standing in the doorway to cell 4 to see the female guests. As Paula was filming she said that she noticed a feeling of tingling down the back of both of her legs and felt a cold spot behind her with goose bumps on her right hand side, Wayne was also feeling the cold spot on his left between them and noticed Paula’s hair being played with by an unseen force in the light given off by the LCD screen.
Next we noticed that cell 2’s panic light had come back on which we all investigated on each of the cells and came to the conclusion that it was impossible for the panic buttons to be accidentally pushed or leaned on and at the time we noticed the light being on none of us were near the button inside the cell.
Sean and Wayne were again both being affected by spirit in cell 4 with dizziness.
We then ventured to courtroom 2 where we had ghost pro activity once more with the name Robert or Bob being very prominent. Tapping and creaking was being heard by us all in the gallery at the back of the room, again none of us were in that area at the time.
Loud footsteps were heard and felt through the floor walking away from and down the stairway to the cells from the accused chair.
Session 3
We used ghost pros, Mel meters,SB7 and Ovilus 3
Handing out the ghost pros we had immediate activity again in cell 4 with communication from a female spirit called Veronica. She died in the 1800’s and had 1 child, she was in love with an inmate but although she carried on coming back to the lady and gentlemen guests that were both holding ghost pros that she was communicating through we didn’t manage to get any more information about her.
We then tried the Ovilus 3 device in cell 4 which amazingly gave us 3 names which were Nick, Jim and Veronica. We tried to establish which spirit was giving us these names and if Nick or Jim was the inmate that Veronica was in love with but had no more communication through this device.
We then moved the session into courtroom 2.
Wayne used the SB7 in the stairwell from the accused chair to the cells with the couple that were talking to Veronica. We established from this spirit box session that there were 5 spirits with us and that both Veronica and Jim were 2 of the spirits present as they said their names clearly and with tone through this device.
Creaking was again heard from the gallery at the back of courtroom 2 with none of us in that area.

Marwell Hall ghost hunt 11th April 2015
Winchester, Hampshire
Equipment: Ouija board / Table tilting
Session 1 – Group B
My first group preferred to do glass work rather than Ouija. A spirit came through straight away, and after establishing our yes and no directions, found out we had a female spirit present. We asked her to move the glass the number of times for her age and this showed her to be 23 years old. She went on to tell us that she worked at the Hall as a lady-in-waiting, wasn’t married and had no children. We asked her to show us where she was standing by moving the glass in that direction, and she was standing behind the guest seated to my right.
After a while we moved to the other table to try some table tilting, and there was slight rocking initially but it was very difficult to get spirit to move the table much more than that. Although eventually the table did tilt up on two legs and held this position for a while. I kept encouraging spirit to try to spin the table and after a while the table did half a rotation, then stopped and there was no more movement after that.
Session 2 – Group C
A spirit came through on the Ouija by the name of Elizabeth who was 25 years old. She died in 1634 and said she had a daughter called Eleanor and they used to live in the building. Elizabeth also told us that she was burned in a fire, although this wasn’t how she died. This we were unable to establish. We then had another female spirit come through and start moving the glass. We were unable to get a name as she just kept moving the glass to random letters which didn’t make sense, although she told us she was 39 years old and died in 1950.
We experienced some very good table tilting in this session, with the table spinning and walking across the room. There were also taps heard on the table. At one point spirit walked the table right over to the door and started banging against it as if wanting to go out into the corridor. Louise saw the figure of a man standing by the other door.
Session 3 – Group A
The glass took a while to move but we started communicating with a 9-year-old girl by the name of Kirsty. She said she died in an accident involving a horse and carriage in 1864. We didn’t get any more information from her, and after a while a male spirit called Frederick came through. He was 27 years old and died in the 1750’s.
When it came to the table tilting, four people at a time went on the table as this was quite a large group. One group did not experience very much movement with the table, with just gentle rocking. The other group got lots of movement with the table spinning and walking around the room.

Fort Horsted ghost hunt 28th March 2015
Chatham, Kent
Area: Hanging Room
Equipment: Ouija, Table Tipping, Writing Planchette, Dowsing Rods, Pendulums
Group C – We started with 4 guests on table tipping, and the other 4 on Ouija. The guests on the table had worked with spirit before so immediately starting getting movement. They asked spirit to move the table showing yes & no, and were able to identify the spirit with them. It was a male spirit called Ned, aged 34, had been strangled at the fort, and was Saxon. On the Ouija we didn’t get any movement, so we started using the dowsing rods & pendulums and was able to ask spirit some questions. We then swapped the guests over. The table did start moving slightly, but we also heard taps underneath the table. We then switched to the writing planchette, and stating that we only had 8 minutes left, the writing planchette started moving and drew and number 8. As we were feeling the table moving we said if this spirit was a male, surely they cannot move both, but to our surprise the planchette and table both started moving. And again we were hearing taps underneath the table. The other group were using the rods and were getting lots of movement.
Group A – With this group the table started tipping immediately, and it was still Ned with us. As only slight movement on the Ouija, everyone went on the table. After a lot of movement, the table went quiet for a short while, but as soon as I suggested we try the writing planchette, the table started moving again. They table ‘walked’ from one end of the room the other. We then asked spirit to take the table to where he was standing, and the table walked to the top of the stairs, where I and Tim (guest) were standing. We asked spirit some more questions, lifting the table towards myself and Tim for yes, away for no. Ned was from Hungary, in the 1200’s, had three sons – Thomas, Sid and Rob. The guests were asking spirit to give this information to them in their heads, and some guests were getting the same information. The table would lift yes/ no to confirm this. He also had a wife called Laura who had died in childbirth. Two guests had pain in their lower back, and spirit confirmed he had affected them. When asked to take the pain away, their backs stopped hurting. We finished the session with spirit moving the table rapidly around the room, spinning in many random movements, to the point with just three guests touching the table with their ‘pinkies’.
Group B – Again we had Ned with us again, moving the table immediately for the guests. Lots of spinning, tipping and rocking. On the Ouija we had some movement, a male spirit aged 23 with he initials EJU. He said there were 6 spirits in the room with us. We did try the writing planchette and this time had a lot of drawing. Asking spirit to draw his first initial a letter N was drawn. Asking spirit to write the number of people touching the planchette (there were five) the number 5 was drawn. After the session had finished, one guest said he had felt a tug on his trousers when I started with the circle. With all of us holding hands he felt surprised to have felt this.
In the free session I joined two girls with a KII & Ghost Pro in the tunnel in area 10. We did hear footsteps walking towards us, and felt tingles on us too. Then we joined some more guests in room 10 table tipping. The spirit that was with us was a French male that had been in this area earlier. He was able to answer some questions by lifting the table to show yes & no. He had passed over between 50 – 100 years ago, of natural causes aged over 50. He had fought in WW2. He was not connected to the fort, but his wife had worked here. He was unhappy because his wife had an affair, and had a child with this man. Although being unhappy he still felt happy to be here with us, and was able to move the table a lot. We asked if he could make a noise that we could here, and we heard a whistle in the room. We asked again and there was a whistle heard in the corridor. We asked again as some guests were still unsure if they had heard it, and everyone heard a whistle again next to us. Three female guests wanted to visit the new area above us, whilst the rest of us returned to base. When these guests returned they said as they had been leaving the tunnel in the new area they heard a very loud female scream in the tunnel. They stopped and started to return to the tunnel, but on hearing the scream again, decided not to go any further.
Would definitely like to check out that area when we return.

Fort Amherst ghost hunt 21st March 2015
Chatham. Kent
Location: The Cave
Equipment: Ouija and table tilting.
Session 1 – Group C (VIPs)
We began the session by splitting the group so that some were on the Ouija and the others around the table. As soon as we placed our hands on the table it began to rock gently and the movement gradually got stronger. When requested to do so, spirit tilted the table up onto one leg and did a complete rotation. I came off the table at this point and asked spirit to try and walk the table down the two steps beside us, which it did to the guests amazement. We continued encouraging spirit to walk the table and it continued walking towards the barrels and tried to manoeuvre between two of them. It was a bit of a struggle as there wasn’t much room between them, but spirit seemed very persistent and eventually managed to squeeze the table through! The table then started picking up speed and continued walking down into the tunnel. Kym and I started calling out asking spirit to bring the table back, but the table just kept going! After a while the table did stop walking and started rocking from side to side quite violently as if in protest. It seemed it didn’t want to go back to where we started, and just wanted to keep going! We continued asking spirit to bring the table back and after a while it started walking back up the tunnel, re-tracing its steps, and took the table right back to where we started. The guests were amazed by what they had just experienced.
Sue was with the other guests on the Ouija table and they connected with a male spirit of 71 years, although they were unable to get a name. Sue sensed this man had breathing problems. He was never married, had no children, and he used to do maintenance work at the fort. After giving this information it became clear that he did not wish to communicate further.
The guests then swapped round so the others who were doing the table tilting could try the Ouija, and a male spirit by the name of Alan came through. He was 34 years old and died in 1904 via a gunshot to the head, his right temple. He said he was a civilian and not a soldier, was shot by his friend and was sad that his life had ended so early.
Before our session ended we thought we would try asking spirit if they were able to move one of the large barrels in the same way it had moved the table. So we gathered around one of them and placed our hands on the top and to our amazement the barrel started rocking from side to side, gradually getting faster and making lots of noise. Our time was up after a short time so we thanked spirit for their cooperation and finished the session.
Session 2 – Group A
Unfortunately on this session we didn’t get much activity. The group was split once again, and we had no movement from the glass at all on the Ouija, so a couple of the guests moved over to try the table tilting. There was a slight rocking on the table initially but even with all our encouragement it was difficult to get much more movement than that. Although the table did eventually tilt up on two legs and held this position for a while. The table then moved back to its starting position and there was no more movement. The guests who hadn’t tried the Ouija decided to have a go, and again there was no movement on the glass for quite some time. It was only about 10 minutes before the end of the session that the glass started moving, but we were unable to get any information as spirit only seemed interested in randomly moving the glass around the table.
Session 3 – Group B
Once again at the start of this session there was no movement on the Ouija so the guests decided to try the table tilting. The table took a while to move, but it eventually started to rock gently. The guests were very quiet so I kept urging them to join me in encouraging spirit to move the table. When everyone started to join in, the table started moving faster and spirit seemed to respond better to the noise we made. Whenever everyone went quiet the table would slow down and stop moving. We eventually managed to get spirit to spin the table on one leg and walk the table down the steps.

Red Lion Hotel ghost hunt 7th March 2015
Colchester, Essex
Area: Room’s 9 + 10
Equipment: Scrying, Dowsing Rods, Pendulums, Glass Work
Group B – Started in room 9 by showing the guests how to use the dowsing rods & pendulums, and all were amazed by the movement they received. Most had a male spirit with them. Louise (guest) had the name Simon. Asking the rods confirmed yes that was his name. We tried some scrying but wasn’t able to see much change. We then went to room 10 to try some glasswork and after while we did get some movement on the glass. One guest Shane stopped touching the glass and started asking spirit questions in his head, and was amazed that the glass started moving much faster, and moving to where he was asking. The spirit was a boy aged 12 called Simon. He drew the letter S for his first initial. He was with his mum, but not his dad. His dad wasn’t very nice. They had both been killed by the dad. They had lived here at the hotel.
Group A – With the next group we again started in room 9 with the rods & pendulums and had lots of movement. We tried some scrying but couldn’t see any changes. We moved to room 10. Whilst some guests were trying some glass work, others were taking it in turns to stand in the short corridor joining the two rooms. Taps were being heard in the door to room 9 but no-one was in there. We did get some glass movement when our time was up, stayed for a short while longer and the glass was moving around the table rapidly.
Area: Restaurant
Equipment: Ouija, Table Tipping, Writing Planchette
Group B – This group decided not to stay so I joined Steve in room 10 for the Tech Session. We were initially using Ghost Pro’s & Mel Meter. Also our newest member of the team, Tarquin the Boo Buddy Bear was with us. It was noted when the bear said it was getting warm in here, the temperature on the Mel meter increased, but not by significant amounts i.e.. 73.4 to 73.9. We then turned on the Ovilus and was receiving words that did seem to match the bear i.e.. Play time and the word “play” being shown. We turned on the Spirit Box but had no words at all. Throughout the ghost pro’s were lighting up and guests were asking various questions. Some guests in room 9 came through asking if we had whistled, as they had been hearing whistling the room, but we hadn’t and had not heard the whistling at all.
Group A – This last controlled session we started with the four male guests on the ouija and Steve assisting. I joined the remaining four guests on the writing planchette but had no movement at all. On the ouija the spirit of Timothy was with them. He was six years old and seemed to just want to play. We then tried some table tipping and immediately the table started lifting. The table then lifted on one corner and started turning, faster when we asked. We then asked if spirit could take the table into the adjoining room to the bar, and the table started sliding, similar to skiing, towards the bar. It then continued to lift and spin when we asked.
For the free session myself and Louise joined four guests in the cellar who had the ouija board. They had a male spirit with them who had worked in this building in the 1400’s before it was the Red Lion. He had died in the cellar of a heart attack. They had heard him talking next to them before we had come down.
Fun night with some lovely guests!

Charlton House ghost hunt 31st January 2015
Area: Cellar
Equipment: Dowsing Rods, Pendulums, Writing Planchette
Group B – We started by using the dowsing rods & pendulums, and each person had lots of movement from the start, we were also hearing noises near us, but couldn’t ascertain what. We asked spirit to point the rods to where the spirit was standing and they pointed towards where the noise came from. We explored the area for short while, and whilst all standing in one area we heard a male breath next to us twice, asking the rods to point where the spirit was standing, they pointed towards where we heard the noise. We tried the writing planchette and had some gentle movement at first, then the planchette started moving in a very fast circular pattern, changing direction and speed when asked. The planchette would lift up on the corners too. We asked spirit to move the planchette to places on the paper to indicate yes & no, and was able to answer a few questions. He was male and drew the number 8 for his age. But we felt the energy was too strong for a boy.
Group C – Started with rods & pendulums, and all were moving. Asking questions we had a male and female spirit. Rods again all pointed to where we felt the spirit(s) were. With the writing planchette we had again random circles, and when requesting spirit to show the planchette a yes & no, confirmed a child again. Were feeling cold touches on our hands when touching the planchette. We kept hearing noises, similar to someone walking over a metal manhole cover. In a different part of the cellar there is an air event to outside, unsure what was on the outside though. However, we did feel the noise came from near us, and there were manhole covers in the cellar. I walked with one guest to a different part of the cellar and we felt extreme cold next to us, but this was not near the outside vent. Then after a short while it moved away from both of us.
Group D – Using the rods & pendulums we picked up again on a male & female spirit, and again after a short while all guests went to explore the area. With the writing planchette the movement was alot more gentle. We asked spirit to draw the number of guests touching the planchette – it was four – and the number 4 was drawn. With another guest (not on the table) drawing a shape on paper, we asked spirit to copy it, with the guests touching the planchette not seeing what was drawn. It was a circle in a square, however only a circle was drawn. Tried again with a triangle, but planchette just drew lots of random circles, etc. Guests tried with just touching the planchette with pinkies and it continued drawing all over the paper. The planchette also kept lifting up many times too.
Group A – Started with rods & pendulums, and again a male & female spirit were with us. Louise (guest) went to sit in a small area that had stairs going to no-where. She started feeling very sad, wanting to cry. They were picking up on a male spirit that had raped women. All went to explore, and two guests came running back as they heard footsteps behind them but no-one there. Julie (guest) went to check and she heard the footsteps behind her, again no-one there. We tried the writing planchette and it started moving. Didn’t receive anything legible, except lots of random writing.
With the controlled sessions finished, all guests and team went to explore the whole building. Initially I went with some guests and team to the loft, although spirit were present, I felt there were too many people there to get any evidence. I then went to some upstairs rooms and watched some table tipping. The table was moving alot, and we asked spirit to take the table back to Jo (team), who had been in that room earlier. She was downstairs, and although spirit did try to ‘walk’ the table down the stairs, the steps were too slippery so the table ‘walked’ to the lift! After coming out of the lift, the table was promptly ‘walked’ to Jo! I then joined some guests in the library, and noticing a chair standing randomly in the middle of the room, I asked if the guests wanted to try ‘moving’ the chair. We stood and kneeled around the chair and immediately it started rocking, very gently. With the chair being padded and on a higly polished floor, we all felt it was impossible for anyone to make it happen. Then we asked spirit to slide the table, and twice it did just that!
Again a fab night at Charlton House – looking forward to the next one!
