Charlton House ghost hunt – 3-5-2014 (Kym)

Charlton House ghost hunt 3rd May 2014
Greenwich, London

Area: Cellar
Equipment: KII’s, Ghost Pro’s, Dowsing Rods, Pendulums, Glass Work

All the team were looking forward to this venue – we get just a bit excited at a new place.  I was in the cellar for the night, so went down on my own to get a feel for that area.  Standing in the dark with ghost pro, I had a spirit standing behind me – I asked if he could touch me, and felt a prod on my lower back.  When I mentioned this to another team member she had read about an older male spirit pinching female’s bums here – well that was a first!

Group C – Kerry (team) joined me on this session with Jason filming.  Kerry & I started with the eight guests showing them how to use the rods & pendulums to communicate with spirit.  We had male & female spirits with us, a total of seven confirmed.  Four guests with Kerry started some glass work, whilst I showed the remaining guests the other areas in the cellar, which they explored with kit.  Kerry & guests had a female spirit with them, who had been a patient here in the 1920’s.  We asked her to use the glass to draw her age when she passed – 27.  We asked her to draw the first letter of the illness she died from – L – we asked leukaemia – no – we asked lymphoma – yes.  We asked her to draw the first initial of her name – M – then second intial – A – asked if her name was Margaret – yes.  She also confirmed she was not married, but had a daughter – called Bobby – who was with her in spirit.  Noises were heard when everyone was in the same area – a thump down the corridor twice, and two taps on the floor in front of Jason whilst filming.  The latter happened after we had asked spirit to make a noise.  Cold touches to our hands – on and off the glass – were felt.  Kerry had also felt a touch on her left shoulder.

Group A – I started again with showing guests how to use the rods & pendulums.  We then moved to some glasswork.  Five guests did this whilst the three guys went to expore wth kit.  They had been in a room asking for spirit to make a noise, and myself with guests had asked spirit to go and make a noise near them.  As they left that room a large bang was heard.  They came to check it wasn’t us, and I encouraged them to show me what had happened.  There was a large metal door lying flat on a bench, and when we banged it that was the sound.  They then stayed near there again whilst I returned to the other guests, and again the three guys came running back to us very quickly – they had heard and felt a loud breath next to them.  I swapped the guys with the other guests to try some glass work.  The glass started moving and I asked James (guest) to think of a shape and ask spirit to draw with the glass – the shape drawn was a triangle which was what James had been thinking.  Spirit then started drawing circles with the glass, and when James & Joe asked spirit to stop and change direction in their head – to their surprise the glass did exactly that!

Group B – with the third group these guests (two groups of four) had been on many ghost hunts with us before, and initially half went to explore whilst the rest wanted to try glass work.  The glass did move a little, but not much so they tried some rods & pendulums.  The other group were having a lot of KII activity.  After 30 mins guests swapped, and the group on the lone vigil didn’t stay in the cellar long – one guest was feeling unwell and had a headache.  Us that remained kept hearing footsteps running above us – I went to check twice and each time no-one had been walking around upstairs, and when returning to cellar, Carl (filming) could not hear me upstairs at all.  We stayed down a little while longer – and both KII’s on the table were lighting up to red continuously. We were trying the rods & pendulums too which were moving a lot.  Carl also heard a noise behind him – sounded like a metal grid moving.

Charlton House was a very exciting new venue – one we all can’t wait to return to.

Charlton House ghost hunt – 3-5-2014

Charlton House ghost hunt 3rd May 2014
Greenwich, London

This was our first ghost hunt at this location and we were unsure what to expect, although from my initial visit some rooms had more promise than others. However we know from experience that at night things and rooms can seem a lot different. I picked one of the largest rooms and also the room which I chose when I visited in the day time.

Whilst I was walking the rest of the team around with the caretaker who was unlocking the doors as we walked, we walked into the very room that I had chosen for all my sessions and then on the way out of the room a waste paper bin was in the middle of the corridor, none of us remember it being there when we started as we didn’t walk around it.

The first group to the long gallery room, (which was fully wood panelled) we started a séance and were joined by a Second World War Captain called Christopher. He told me that he was sent to this house during the war years to recuperate.

Christopher was able when asked to lift the arms of some of the guests and one particular guest was pulled backwards at various intervals which really surprised her, because it wasn’t as gentle as some of the movements, this seem to have more force which to stop herself falling over she had to take a step back.

There was also a female spirit present although she didn’t tell me her name but when this spirit was near to people they could smell on odd fragrance. It was similar to a strong bleach smell, although it wasn’t bleach.

The second group to the long gallery room had much more movement, mainly because they actively asked for things to happen to them, whereas the first group didn’t.

When we started the séance there were three male spirits in the room with us; a Doctor, a Major (Second World War Army) and another solider. All three were able to move and touch people and lift our arms on command. Many people were pushed, swayed and pulled backwards and two guests (Dan and Nadine) reported feeling odd sensations in their knees. These sensations were like numbness although all those affected knew their knees were not numb but could not describe the sensation. Stuart (guest) was gently rocked back and forth, not dissimilar to being on a boat. Dan (guest) was also pushed and pulled backwards and another guest (Nikki) was squashed between Stuart and Nadine as they were being moved.

At one stage during the session we all heard a dragging noise, similar to a wooden box being dragged over a wooden floor, but everyone heard this sound coming from different directions, however this may have been due to the acoustics of the room as the wood panelled walls made all sounds echo.

During the séance half of the group felt cold spots, which was odd because the whole building was very warm, the heating had obviously been set quite high as the ambient temperature in most rooms was 25 degrees Celsius.

When we moved into the adjacent room many of us heard footsteps in the room that we had just left as well as other noises which sounded like small items being dropped on to the floor. When Nadine and I were looked into the long gallery room to listen for noises I saw a female spirit, aged in her early 50s and similar to a teacher from the 1960s looking back at us. She didn’t say anything just stared at me.

The third group to the gallery room, we were joined by a female nurse spirit, her name was Anne-Marie and when I asked for her to move the guests arms everyone felt something eventually, but this nurse took a liking to Pam, Belinda, Courtney and Jenny (guests) and moved them more than the others. When I asked Anne-Marie to push or wobble the guests many people felt unstable and some were pushed forwards or pulled backwards especially Pam and Courtney and others felt light touches on their arms or shoulders.

During the séance we all heard another odd noise, it sounded similar to laboured breathing and a whistle was clearly heard by everyone. Once again several people felt cold spots which moved from beside different people. When we moved into the other room we had several responses to taps and knocks made by me as I had requested the spirit copy or repeat the knocks, the lighter I tapped the more likely the response.

After the controlled sessions we always allow the guests to go to any room of their choice and hold their own vigils, sometimes the team will join them, whilst other times the team will just oversee what guests are doing. I joined a group in a room that we didn’t use during our controlled sessions and met a young girl of about 8 years old who was bossy and a male spirit called Henry who didn’t like me at all, although I have no idea why because he never said. Two other team members were sitting on the floor on the opposite side of the room and both felt cold spots move around them. No other sensations or noises were heard whilst in this room although the room felt strange and odd but we have no idea why.

This was an excellent ghost hunt and we hope to return to this venue in 2015. Many of the guests had some paranormal activity that they could not logically explain or things happened to them that defied physics.
