Kings Wood ghost hunt – 5-8-2011

Monday, August 8th, 2011

Having previously held a ghost hunt at Kings Wood, I knew  how much walking was required to get into the interesting part of the wood.
After our route march I stopped at a location which was close to where the balloons were launched during WWI but because the ground was covered in ants & we found an ant hill about 2′ high no-one really wanted to stay here, so we walked a little further and stopped for our first session.

This was an areaof woods that I haven’t visited before, but our EMF (Electromagnetic Field) detectors were flashing constantly of spirit activity. However whilst the metres were flashing, as soon as anyone took out a camera or an audio recorder the lights on EMF stopped and all remained spiritually very quiet. However unperturbed we took photos and investigated the area of woodland that I had suggested we stop at.

I then decided that we should hold a séance to try to encourage spirit to come forward. During the initial stages there were lots of odd noises, but they didn’t sound like trees or birds, it wasn’t very windy either but the noises were high up in the trees. A male energy made himself known to me, he looked a bit like an Action Man, by that I mean his face was a bit featureless it looked plastic. However he proceeded to give gentle movement, but when I asked for spirit to make a loud noise Debbie (guest) screamed because someone had just blown or whispered in her hear and that startled her a bit!

Nevertheless we carried on and although the male energy I could clearly see wasn’t a malicious energy, there were shadows moving in the background and we all heard foot falls in the background which was unnerving because you couldn’t walk 2′ in these woods without making a noise. As I requested the energy to do something else, Graham (guest) became startled because someone had also just whispered or blown into his ear. The general feeling was that of apprehension as if something was going to happen but we didn’t know when. The male energy that I could see was about 6’2″ and seemed older than what you would expect a soldier to be, he was wearing army fatigues and had a tin hat with webbing on top, exactly like a camouflage soldier Action Man. Scott (guest) then exclaimed that someone had touched him on the leg, there was a tree branch behind him but he said he wasn’t standing near that and even if he were it wasn’t strong enough to feel what he had just felt. With this I decided to break the séance since very little was actually happening apart from noises coming from deeper inside the wood. Scott investigated and came back to tell us that there was an
interesting tree that we should investigate, we followed and yes it was an interesting tree, in fact two trees which had grown together and interwoven themselves which each other.

This spot also once again seemed to be highly active with spirit energy but when a camera came out the activity just stopped. Whilst standing near to this tree I suggested an EVP (Electronic Voice
Phenomena) experiment. I have never heard so many people forget what they wanted to say, it was the funniest EVP experiment in the eight years I have been ghost hunting, unfortunately the recording I’ll probably never be able to publish as the language is certainly adult in every way. However in amongst the sensible questions there were 5 spirit voices captured the best one can be heard at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SG-xf9O4U0Q

From here we moved on to the older part of the wood, one which coincidentally doesn’t have a lot of visitors because it is very deep
into the woods. Once we stopped the EMF metre lit up like a Christmas tree, but as soon as a camera was turned on it stopped. From what I felt at the time it seemed that the women & children spirit were inquisitive but the males were calling them back, as we were outsiders & that is pretty much how everyone felt, as if we didn’t belong. Scott & Debbie went for a stroll and came back very quickly as they heard an odd noise. According to Scott it sounded like someone banging something wooden on a metal railing. The rest of us were about 50 feet away and we heard nothing, although we did hear a fairly loud
noise between us and Debbie & Scott, which they didn’t hear. This sounded like something being dropped from a reasonable height.

Whilst everyone was wondering around I decided to conduct an EVP experiment or two and whilst the actual words we cannot decipher the tone is of anger, which would back up my theory that we were somehow invading their privacy.

Although this was completely different to many of the ghost hunts that we undertake, not least because of the amount of walking, but the
reluctant nature of the spirits it was still enjoyable and I am hopeful that we can clean up the rest of the EVPs so that we can hear what the spirits were telling us.

Kings Wood Ghost Hunt – 21/5/2011

Saturday, May 28th, 2011

We started the evening with a delightful picnic just inside the woods, we couldn’t find the picnic tables, as they are painted black and the trees have grown since I was last here.
After the picnic we started the evening with a Ouija board. A male energy by the name of Peter was communicating with those around the board. He didn’t give much detail about himself as he seemed to be annoyed that were there or he just couldn’t be bothered to answer the questions. He was a tall gentleman, about 5′ 11″ or 6′ in height of slim build, with balding hair aged in his early 60s he also had a much reddened and an angular face.

After this we headed into the woods, at our first location, which was the area used in 1st World War as a launching area for barrage balloons, we came across another male energy by the name of Ezekiel who was Jewish, in his early 20s, about 5’10” in height. He proceeded to give everyone some physical evidence by pushing them. He pushed Mel (guest) until she was bent over. During this time Mel, Debbie (guest) & Lynn all smelt a very sweet perfume smell. Chris (guest) and I didn’t smell anything. At one point an unwelcome energy tried to gain the confidence of Lynn, but fortunately this energy was unsuccessful. I then conducted an EVP experiment, on inspection there were no spirit voices captured.

After this we walked further into the woods, and both Chris and I captured some orb photographs. The best of these have been loaded onto our Ghostly Gallery [http://www.ghosthuntevents.co.uk/ghost_gallery.asp]

We stopped on a particular path, which when Lynn & I came here back in early April during the day we both felt uneasy and Lynn kept looking behind her, even though we both knew that there was no one behind us. The area that we had chosen to stop was the main settlement area when these woods were heavily inhabited.
Firstly a female energy who was a well-covered lady, who was wearing a blue and white striped dress with a white pinny, her hair was dark and tied back into a bun. She was about 5’4″. She seemed to be a farmer’s wife; she gently gave everyone some physical evidence in the form of gentle arm movements and gentle rocking. Then I noticed a male energy had joined us. He was a fairly stocky gentleman, about 5′ 8″ and he was the female energy’s husband. He carried with him a shepherds hook or staff and was wearing light brown or beige shirt, dark brown trousers and what looked like homemade boots. He was a very strong energy and he manipulated everyone in the circle by pushing them backwards, nearly to the point of falling over. Afterwards I conducted another EVP experiment, when I played back the recording at the time we could all hear there was a response after Lynn’s question. The result of that can be heard at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUWSz-0gDzY]

During this session we all heard what was definitely an animal sound, but none of us could identify the animal. It sounded like a very loud cricket. As it turned out this is the sound of a Nightjar bird.

After a long walk back to the cars for tea and coffee, everyone was tired from the walking, but had thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
