Pluckley Woods ghost hunt – 3rd June 2012

This was a private ghost hunt for a small group within Pluckley woods, considering the amount of rain that we had endured the night before (See our report from Toys Hill & Weardale Manor ghost hunt – 2nd June 2012) I was hoping that the rain would not hinder us this evening. Fortunately the woods at Pluckley offer greater protection from the elements as the trees are taller and generally leafier.

When we arrived there was another large group of people heading out of the woods, I can only assume that they had been doing what we were about to do; ghost hunting.

After making our way deep into the woods one of the group felt that he was being followed and watched, as we made our way along one of the larger paths he kept looking and searching with his torch behind him.

Once we had stopped on a particular favourite part of the woods of mine, the feeling from the group was that they too felt as if they had been followed. Several photographs taken by the guests had some very unusual purple mists in them. It wasn’t a misty night, rain was expected but it wasn’t raining at the time, although it had rained throughout the day.

A male energy joined us and was able to answer some simple questions via one of our ghost communication devices, although this energy would not talk to me nor tell me his name. Also the KII meter was showing signs of a high level of EMF energy.

During this period I was trying to get the spirit energy to interact with the guests and stand close to them, so that they could feel the energy. Grant (guest) wandered off on his own a few yards and when I informed him that the spirit energy was close to him and he should ask the energy to stand near to him. Grant felt a strange pins & needles sensation throughout his body much to his amazement and surprise.

From here we walked further down the path to a favourite location of mine (it was in this location that I – and the group – heard the famous female scream on a previous ghost hunt). At this location we were joined by Terry who was 52 years old and via the communicator told us that he was a Butcher. He was quite short (5’6”) and stocky in build, wearing a white vest and brown flannel trousers. He also sported a mostly bald head. Once again Grant was able to feel his energy at times, as he now wanted to recreate the feeling that he had encountered earlier. According to Grant there was a certain amount of warmth to this energy as it felt much warmer when Terry was standing near Grant.

At this time I also started using my SB7 (Spirit Box) this scans the radio frequencies at 100ms intervals and to rule out actually hearing something that is being broadcast the scan is run in reverse. So we can be sure that if we hear any voices they are not being broadcast on the radio. Nothing was heard that was audible at this time, although it had started to rain.

We moved further along the same pathway to an area which I don’t often visit, because this is at the very edge of the woods and it is an exposed location however the spirit energies had followed us and were making themselves known by affecting the group, some felt sharp pains in their back, whilst other felt the pins & needle sensation in their arms, across their shoulders and their back. I asked Grant to hold out his hand as the spirit energy was standing to his right. Unbeknown to Grant I had asked Terry to touch his hand and to close his open hand. Grant immediately said that he could feel the spirit and that his hand felt strange, especially his little finger, then Grant jolted his hand, although he has no idea why, he said that it felt odd.

It was during this that we could hear strange noises within the wood (bearing in mind it was raining heavily by now). One of the noises that we all heard and which made the guests jump was a loud thump or a stomp. This is not the sort of noise an animal could make as it was too loud for a rabbit, fox or badger.

Because it was now raining quite heavily we moved back into the cover of the woods to an area which has proved very successful for séances in the past. So we held a séance and were immediately joined by Terry (the spirit from earlier) although there was also two other energies, a brother and sister present. Their names were Peter & Chloe. Peter stood back from the group but Chloe stepped forward to provide the guests with a physical experience. Chloe was very tall, about 5’10” aged in her early 20s with blonde hair and striking blue eyes. She gave me the impression that they were from Denmark (although that could have just been the blonde, blue eyed link).

Chloe proceeded to move the arms of the guests, gently at first and then move forcefully and several of the guests reported that whilst their hands were being manipulated they had cramp in their fingers. Two guests also felt a pins & needles sensation in their backs. When I asked Chloe to push or pull the guests, many of them started to sway, some forwards and backwards, others from left to right. I then suggested to spirit to push people from their knees, as this is the easiest way to push someone over. Grant immediately exclaimed that he was in agony as his knees were extremely sore and he couldn’t move them. Chloe also pushed some other members of the group.

From here we moved to part of the woods which has been eventful on previous occasions and it is here that I tried an EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena – a.k.a. ghost voice) experiment. Unfortunately due to the conditions (the heavy rain) the spirit voices that did exist on the recording could not be cleaned up enough to fully understand what the spirit was saying. I also tried once again the spirit box and this time we all heard the spirit voice say “hi” and when I asked for the spirit to say their name we heard firstly “Pete” and then when I asked the spirit to say it again we all heard “Peter”. There was possibly a “thanks” spoken via the box but unfortunately the rain hindered our hearing ability.

As soon as there was a let up in the rain we decided to make our way back to the cars.

Once again a very enjoyable and productive ghost hunt where the guests all got a physical experience and heard spirit voices via the spirit box. It is just a shame that the spirit voices recorded during the EVP experiment cannot be heard properly over the sound of the rain.

Pluckley woods ghost hunt 18-5-2012

Pluckley Woods ghost hunt – 18th May 2012

As the summer approaches ghost hunting outdoors increases in popularity and fortunately any light rain showers will not affect our ghost hunts very much because of the cover of the trees. Which was the case this time, although the amount of mud seemed to have no relation to the amount of rain we have had recently.

The first stop, which is my usual starting point for the evening many of the guests took photos, some had light anomalies but quite a few people photographed odd mists, it wasn’t a misty night nor a cold one, so these mists are anomalous.

There was also a lot of KII activity and quite a lot of communication via our electronic devices.

There were a group of four people (not part of our group) who were obviously conducting their own ghost hunt, however they passed us in a leisurely fashion and about 10 minutes later we could hear them rushing out of the woods, one of them commented that it was a silly thing to do and they were obviously scared as they commented briefly that they photographed something which shocked them.

The second area we stopped I held a séance a male energy by the name of John came forward, he was an architect and aged approximately 30 years old. He wore round framed spectacles and had short brown hair, quite a slim build and tall, approximately 6’. He wore light brown trousers and a long sleeved white shirt with pale blue stripes. He also wore braces.

John seemed to spend most of the time standing right behind Tony (guest), the two guests either side of Tony said that Tony was shaking a lot. Ryan (guest) announced that he was feeling very unwell and nauseous. I then decided to put Ryan in the centre of the circle to protect him as there was a very nasty energy called Michael who was standing near to Ryan. Michael seemed to be a very nasty energy who wanted to cause harm, he also told me that he liked to murder people to weed out the weak. Just as we were stopping the séance some of us heard a very loud and deep growl just behind where Tony was standing. This growl did not sound like a dog or a natural animal of the woods, but more like a wolf.

In this area there was lots of KII activity and communication via the electronic equipment

From here we moved on to a new favourite area of mine, one which unnerves me because it doesn’t feel right and every time I have taken a group here something interesting has happened either to the guests or me!

Whilst standing on the path, once again lots of KII activity and ghost communication and also many footfall sounds heard in the surrounding woodland.

Using the spirit box the guests called out for spirit to say their names, which spirit happily did as well as saying “Hello” and “Thank you”

At the end of this I conducted an EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena a.k.a. ghost voice experiment) and toward the end when I usually ask a question one of the guest yelped and said that they felt a poke in the back, however when the recording was played back there was a clear sound of a dog bark, which was not audible at the time.

The odd dog bark can be heard at http://youtu.be/0QC2qQ73y7g

Of the recordings from the EVP experiment there were a number of responses from spirit however there were only three clear spirit voices, these can be heard below

http://youtu.be/3TT-mb9rZwc
http://youtu.be/eIM6B7LwnXM
http://youtu.be/QLcFm0j4mXI

We left this area soon after as many of the guests were feeling vulnerable, sickly or just not themselves.

Once again a very enjoyable ghost hunt with plenty of audible activity.

Pluckley Screaming Woods – 27-4-2012 (Paranormal Investigator)

Pluckley Screaming Woods ghost hunt – 27th April 2012

Arriving at one of the recognised spots, deep within the woods, where paranormal activity and past investigations have occurred, we briefed the guests on the basic use of various pieces of equipment, associated with “ghost hunting”.

The night was probably the quietest and stillest ever encountered without a breath of wind and clear, starlit sky with the beginnings of the new moon cycle. All in all, these conditions present an excellent opportunity to procure EVP recordings and remain totally aware of the surrounding environment. All that could be heard from the outset were the calls of owls in the distance!

Embarking on the “investigation” trail, several members of the group, armed with KII EMF Meters, Pro Ghost Meters, and similar equipment, noted readings from the outset, ranging from a mere 0.2 milligauss )mG) on the MEL Meter to a constant red light reading, simultaneously, on three separate KII meters.

These readings were of particular importance as there is absolutely no possibility of any background Electro Magnetic Field influence arising from electrically generated apparatus or power lines etc, so far into the woods themselves.

The Ovilus PX unit, a piece of kit specifically designed in the USA for “digitally dowsing” the surrounding atmosphere and environment, containing a pre supplied, vocabulary of approximately three thousand words, was also being utilised by members of the group.

Enabling spirit or astral presences, to “communicate” via this digital vocabulary, using full words, or even phonetically, the unit offers a great opportunity to support and substantiate other evidence gathered from equipment being used in tandem.

An excellent example of this liaison, on this particular vigil, was highlighted when the Pro Ghost Meter identified a “contact” and subsequent questioning by the guests, seeking a simple yes/no response. Establishing the name of the contact as “Tom” and the possibility that this contact was a highwayman, originally from the Leeds/York area, the Ovilus produced words such as “horses”, “York”, “Tom” and more.

Strangely enough, on this occasion, a PSB-7 unit, scanning white noise frequencies a short distance away, also blurted out the name “Tom” simultaneously! Coincidence or not, the resulting information and responses proved convincing to our guests who continued to make intermittent contact with “Tom” throughout the course of the vigil in this spot.

Most surprising of all, whilst using the Ovilus PX, the surname of two of the guests was called out from the unit clearly astounding all present! There is no explanation for this anomalous happening.

Grouping together for an hand held vigil and séance, myself and Carl remained outside of the Circle and moved off, approximately three to four hundred yards in another direction.

Carrying out several EVP’s, calling out as we walked, the resulting data appears to hold little of interest. Simultaneously, photographs were taken with no apparent anomalous results.

During the séance, we all clearly heard cows mooing in the distance, a strange occurrence to record, as the possibility of hearing this, so far into the woods, with any surrounding fields far too far away, is extremely unlikely, in view of the stillness of the night, absolutely no wind whatsoever and total quietness.

The sound ceased as quickly as it had started and was not recorded further for the remainder of the vigil.

I broke away with a small group (mother, daughter Sydney, father, and their son, who remained in the background and did not appear to want to participate,) and engaged in a very short EVP. As the recording was replayed on the spot, clear, class A audible whispering, of a female voice, could be heard saying “Aah! It’s Cold” and then almost immediately afterwards, “men are in the village”. Subsequent downloading and analysis of this EVP has resulted in some heated debate of the content and has now been posted on the GHE website.

Whilst the guests were taken to other areas within the woods, and calling out, EVP and photography continued, there does not appear to be anything further of any major interest from my perspective resulting, though my colleagues and, perhaps the guests, may well have provided something in the interim?

Pluckley Screaming Woods – 27-4-2012 (Psychic Medium)

Pluckley Screaming Woods ghost hunt – 27th April 2012

It was touch and go whether this ghost hunt would take place due to the weather, as all week it rained very heavily throughout Kent, however on the night, the weather was absolutely perfect; no wind, no rain and very quiet.

After walking to my familiar starting point, we gave the majority of the guests some electronic equipment to use to investigate, as there were several spirits in the area.

One of these spirit energies, a male energy by the name of Tom, a soldier from the Second World War gave a group of guests’ lots of information via our ghost communication devices, a spirit box and spoke the customers surname via an Ovulus. Which the guests found very surprising, as did my team and I.

Other guests were also getting activity via our K2 EMF meters and our other ghost communicator.

Many guests took photos and photographed many orbs or light anomalies. As a group we heard many footfalls in the woods and at various time saw strange lights.

After moving from this area we held a séance and the male energy from the first location joined us, as did another male energy, who did not give me his name, but he was about 57 years old, quite tall at about 6’4” and was wearing a Royal Navy uniform and the insignia of a First Officer. Both these energies tried to move the guests but nothing was actually felt by any of the guests.

At this location various noises were heard, many of which sounded similar to someone approaching, but no-one ever arrived. Both Marc & Carl (team members) walked further down the path as they were keen to do some EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena a.k.a. ghost voice) experiments. As they were returning to walk back to the group (they stayed within a visible distance) we all heard a very loud crack deep inside the woods, considering there was no wind, we ruled out anything falling from a tree and since we saw no lights assumed no human was responsible. (I find it very hard to believe anyone could walk through the trees and plants of these woods without a torch).

Whilst in this location we conducted a group EVP with some of the guests and a response was clearly heard at the time. This sounded like a female voice saying “It’s cold” and then a few seconds later “Men in village”, however when this EVP was analysed the first part sounds like something different and currently our experts cannot agree on the actual words spoken by the female voice. As soon as we can establish what exactly is being spoken we will add this to our ghost voice page on the website.

From here we moved to a location that I do not often walk into, mainly because I find it a very uncomfortable area, the woods here do not seem very welcoming and the first time I came here I felt hands around my neck. However since this was a big group I felt that there was a certain amount of safety to proceed. This was definitely a good idea because the photo below was one of many that I took, however this photo was the only one with a mist formation. To us the mist formation has form and looks as if it is formed from the ground upwards. In the full sized photo there are many colours within the mist, namely blue, orange and reds. This is undoubtedly one of the best mist formations pictures that I have ever taken.

I conducted another EVP experiment in this area, which was recorded by all the team (three people) and two of us had spirit voices recorded, however one of the answers to the question posed, we cannot establish what the exact words spoken say. However there is a good response to a guest’s question, you can hear this at:-

http://youtu.be/E8Y_PKGL74I

Once again a very enjoyable ghost hunt and some good quality photographs and EVPs recorded.

Apart from myself, Carl & Marc who are experienced Paranormal Investigators were in attendance. Marc has also written a report.

Pluckley Woods ghost hunt – 6-4-2012

Pluckley Screaming woods ghost hunt – 6th April 2012

After entering the woods and heading for my usual spot, one thing surprised me; the lack of any sounds at all. It was extremely quiet, probably the quietest I have known in these woods. This made the guests even more scared, since for most of them it was their first time.

Once we stopped walking, deep in the middle of the woods a male energy stepped forward, his name was Timothy, 27 years old, from 1870s that had a rough shaved look about him and he told me that he was a trader. One of the guests wanted to know whether she could feel him. I asked her to walk away from the group to the general area where he was standing after about 1 minute the guest came racing back to the group, apparently she heard the sound of footsteps behind her, the sound of crunching twigs and that was enough for her.

During the following séance Timothy stayed with us and was able to move the guests’ arms. There was also a female energy that joined us, her name was Bethany and she was in her early 20s but seemed to be shy or reluctant to join in.

During this séance some of the guests heard a growl behind them, which made some of the guests nervous. As I have heard growls before in these woods, I thought it best not to tell them this on our way into the woods as I didn’t want the guests to be too scared.

Many guests took photographs before and after the séance. Several of their photographs had light anomalies (Orbs) in them. One or two guests had some very unusual light anomalies, which were not the usual kind of perfect Orbs, but instead were rod shaped.

After the séance I conducted an EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena a.k.a. ghost voice) experiment. Two of the guest’s questions had audible answers. You can hear the EVPs below.

http://youtu.be/VnBGA6Rr8OE
http://youtu.be/sDuIhgh_zNQ

Our second area a male energy by the name of Jake aged 34 came forward. Jake proceeded to answer many questions via our communication electronic equipment and the K2 EMF meter readings were also very high and consistent.

The third area was one which I don’t often go into, because even I find this area daunting, it doesn’t have a nice feeling, in fact it feels very oppressive and unnerving, but I didn’t tell the guests what I thought about it until after we had finished. Many guests also felt vulnerable whilst in this area. During the séance there was a very angry male energy present, he pushed many of the guests and rocked them from side to side, but I decided to stop the séance because I felt hands or something around my neck. I have felt this sensation before in this area of the woods!

Once again a successful ghost hunt where the guests experienced paranormal activity and communication with spirit.

Pluckley Screaming Woods – 23-3-2012

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012

Pluckley Ghost Hunt – 23rd March 2012

Investigating Pluckley at this time of the year is the best time for us, very few people venture into the woods because although the leaves are starting to return to the trees, it is usually very cold and teaming with wildlife (rabbits, foxes, rats etc) However this time it was a still night, no wind, a relatively clear sky and not a single animal sound was heard all night.

After walking deep into the woods I stopped on a familiar path and explained to all the guests what the Ghost Communicator did and the K2 EMF and how they worked. Many guests were taking photographs at this time and quite a few of them had orbs or light anomalies in them.

Whilst we were standing waiting for spirit energies to come forward I noticed that a spirit girl of about 7 or 8 years old had on a couple occasions approached us and then retreated as if scared by us, however this all changed when I saw he father, he was about 5’8” and of a large build, wearing a white shirt and a blue flat cap. He told me his name was Fred and that he was hiding in the woods. The year he gave me 1940. Which I found slightly confusing as to why anyone would be hiding with their family during WWII.

During the following séance Fred stayed around and another male energy joined us, he was 33 years old about 6’ tall and of slim build, he seemed very cavalier in his approach and he gave me the year of his passing as 1890. He also gave his name as Rocky, which seems a very modern name. However Rocky on several occasions pushed Damon (guest) much to Damon’s surprise. The first time it happened Damon could only utter expletives! However after about 15-20 minutes Damon had got used to this and was actually trying to resist movement, but every time the spirit energy won.

After we broke the séance and were just about to walk off, some guests were still taking photographs and one guest exclaimed she didn’t know what she had just taken. I flippantly commented that it was a bear (there are no bears in England!). On inspection of the photograph which was a mist formation, probably caused by the person’s breath who took the photo, there was a shape (where no mist was present) that actually did look like a bear!

The second area which we stopped walking Damon was now keen to be pushed again by spirit as too was Gary. During the séance we were joined by Timothy a male spirit who told me that he worked in the woods. He was 65 years old and had a bald head. We were also joined by a colleague of Timothy a male energy he told me his name was Mr Carolle, about 6’2” in height and in his early 20s. He was wearing a white granddad shirt and green trousers that had leather or suede patches on the thighs.

After asking these energies to concentrate on pushing people Gary who was standing to my left could feel a strong pressure on his right and a coldness which only affected his right hand side. No other guests at this time felt cold or a breeze. Both Gary and Damon were pushed with ease by these male spirits and Gary was actually nearly knocked off his feet with the force of one of these pushes. Many of the other guests including myself also felt a rocking sensation, as if we were on a boat.

After the séance I conducted an EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) or ghost voice experiment. Out of the nine people present there were spirit voices recorded after seven people’s questions. The best ones you can hear below.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp6xetPEP8I

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EejvYtclGDQ

After the EVP experiment I set up the laser grid in the hope that the energies would make themselves known and although the K2 EMF activity was high, nothing was actually seen in the grid. Although many of the guests heard walking sounds or footfalls in the woods behind them. I also called out to spirit to repeat whistles and light the K2 metre when they had finished, but unfortunately nothing was heard at the time, nor recorded either.

Our 3rd area there was very little activity, possibly due to the fact that most of the guests were feeling the cold and were tired. There was a male energy around us, but equally he too was quite weak and shy.

All in all a very enjoyable ghost hunt and probably the highest amount of ghost voices recorded during any ghost hunt that I have undertaken.

Pluckley Screaming Woods – 17-2-2012

Pluckley Screaming Woods Ghost Hunt – 17th February 2012

This time of year is perfect for us to go to Pluckley, the lack of leaves on trees and the noises of the wood being at its minimum means any unusual or strange occurrences can be easily identified as animal or other. Usually it is the other and unexplainable!

After setting off and walking deep into the woods we stopped at a familiar spot and although spirit activity was present it wasn’t enough activity to warrant a proper séance. Our K2 metres picked up energy but it was less than usual.

After moving to another spot we did begin a séance and almost immediately a spirit which I have encountered before made himself known to me, his name is Philip and he is a farm worker, ginger hair and very pale skin of slim build and about six foot in height.

He started (as he has before) by moving the arms of myself and whoever is standing next to me, much to their surprise and something which I usually “forget” to mention! Philip kindly allowed the guests to feel his presence by moving the guests arms gently. Not in a scary way but usually the guests find this surreal.

Philip also followed us to another spot on the same path, here is usually quiet however on this particular occasion we all heard some very heavy footfalls and some other loud rustling which didn’t sound like rabbits, foxes or badgers, this sounded more like the noise cows make, however there are no cows in these woods.

During the séance Darren (guest) got pulled backwards much to his and everyone else’s surprise, we were also joined by a female spirit whose name was Elizabeth, she was aged approximately 30 years and by her dress was from the 1860s. I heard on more than one occasion the sounds of people mumbling or talking very quietly, which didn’t seem to emanate from any particular direction, only after the séance guests also commented that they too had heard the same mumblings. Guests either side of Darren also heard grunting and groaning, which I have heard in this specific spot before. There were also distant whistles heard by the guests.

During my whistle experiment and when I had set up the laser grid, the K2 metre was exceptionally active although no real evidence was seen or felt. Guests however di have many orb or light anomaly photos.

Our final session was on the path to Fright Corner and we met an Italian by the name of Angelo who was extremely energetic and manipulated the guests without hesitation. Angelo was 34 years old and from the 1970s and had no trouble moving or touching the ladies. Also during this period many guests and myself heard the same sort of mumbling and one or two guests also heard a male sounding groan.

After this I conducted an EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) or ghost voice experiment and on playing back the recording, various responses were heard, however when these were analysed only one out of the potential four could easily be recognised and understood. You can listen to this recording at http://youtu.be/rahadFLfz8M

Whilst walking out of the woods some guests clearly heard the sound of bells, not dissimilar to church bells, this is something which we have encountered before and although we cannot rule out the possibility that these are Church bells, I find it very hard to believe that any village church would be ringing the bells at 2:00am!

Once again another successful ghost hunt and one in which the guests thoroughly enjoyed.

Pluckley Screaming Woods private ghost hunt 28-1-2012

Pluckley Screaming Woods 28-1-2012

We get many requests to hold ghost hunts, not just at many of our outdoor locations but also indoors for birthday parties and hen nights. This visit however was a surprise ghost hunt as a Hen party. The night did not disappoint.

There are a number of ‘hot spots’ within these woods where the spiritual activity is greater than in other areas and I always start in one of the most active areas.

After some very high readings on the K2 metre we formed a séance circle and I described a spirit energy that had followed us onto this path, this turned out to be Emma’s (the hen) God Father who was called Tom. He however stepped back to allow the spirit energies who were present to interact with the guests.

The first was an energy called Philip aged in his early 20s with ginger hair and pale skin, he proceeded to gently push and pull the guests and move some of the guests’ arms.

We were also joined by a female energy called Anita 34 years old who was dressed in a Edwardian style, she gave the group little attention although she smiled whist Philip moved the guests.

After this séance I conducted an EVP (ghost voice) experiment and one of the guests had a very clear answer after their question, you can listen to it here http://youtu.be/P4I8XaRO__E

In the second location, which is also a very active area Emma heard someone clear their throat just behind her and to her left. Since I was the only man present she knew it wasn’t me because I was in front of her. We were joined by a young male energy, his name was Patrick and he was 7 years old and dressed in 1980s attire. It transpired that he was a runaway child. This information was gathered using our ghost communicator. Michelle (guest) also felt he rucksack being tugged.

There was also an unwelcome angry energy present, he stood about 6’ tall and had dark black hair with a square looking face. Since he seemed likely to cause trouble we moved on.

Whilst at our next location I set up our laser grid, which has proved very popular with the guests, probably because when this is on the area is well lit! Several people saw a 3’ high mist traversing the grid, and although I could not confirm it but a few guests suggested that it may have been Patrick, the spirit we met earlier as we were just a few hundred metres further along the path. The K2 metre also acted very strangely. During this session I tried a whistle experiment and although no whistles we heard out loud, we all heard footfalls in the woodland immediately to our left, this did not sound like a person walking in the woods but more like someone dragging something.

Our fourth session was on our way out of the woods and we held a final séance. A spirit by the name of Basil McKinley or McKendrick joined us. He was Scottish and told me that he worked as a Butcher in a shop in Tenterden and Headcorn. He was a fairly portly gentleman of 44 years old who was wearing a white shirt and vest, brown corduroy trousers and black boots. Patrick also re-joined us. However there were very few movements however the majority of the guests at this point were rather cold.

Everyone enjoyed themselves and Emma will not forget her Hen party anytime soon.

Pluckley Screaming woods ghost hunt – 9-12-2011

Thursday, December 15th, 2011

Pluckley Screaming woods is usually quite a scary place however it was less scary than normal because the skies were clear and it was a full moon and after ones eyes adjusted to the dark it was very easy to navigate the paths without the aid of a torch and being that it is December it was also extremely cold but this did not deter us from experiencing the ghostly goings on of Pluckley woods.

Whilst we were all getting accustomed to our surroundings, because the moonlight made the woods less scary near the car park whereas deeper into the woods everything was lit and seemed much more open that it actually is. I noticed that it was much quieter than normal, I mean there were less animal sounds than normal, as usually there are bird calls and scuttling sounds of rabbits, foxes and rats. Whether the full moon has this effect on the animals I do not know.

After starting our first séance a male spirit energy called Tom joined us, he was approximately 62 years old and stood about 5’8” in height and he pushed a wooden cart and I sensed that he was a market trader or someone who sold his produce in a town.

Very quickly Tom or Thomas as he preferred to be called started move the arms of many of the guests and every time I asked the guest in question ask nicely for their arms to be moved in a direction of their choice and each time Thomas obliged, many of the guests had never experienced anything like this before and were genuinely dumb-founded when it happened to them. I also asked that Thomas push people as and when he could and although that sort of action usually starts with me on this occasion it didn’t and quite out of the blue Tash was pulled backwards much to her surprise. Since I enjoy it when guests get manipulated by spirit I asked for Thomas to do this again and this time Tash had to step back to avoid falling over. Alan also felt some light pushing but could not be sure if it was spirit or whether it was him.

Many of the guests also noted that it seemed warmer inside the circle than outside, many could feel a radiation of heat from the centre of the circle.

After this séance I conducted the first EVP experiment, the results of which are still being analysed.

Our second vigil in another area was a strange one not least because of the light but mainly because most people felt uneasy and they kept seeing shadows and movement further along the path, although it was a little windy, and the trees creaked and groaned.

A male energy called Alex joined us he was 25 years old and of a stocky build wearing green moleskin trousers, brown leather boots and a white granddad shirt and gave his passing as 1880s. He looked like a farmhand, also further along the path was a female energy who gave her name as Fairweather (I assumed this to be her surname) as she seemed to be Alex’s wife, she was quite tall with long ginger hair and looked very much Nicole Kidman in her younger days.

Also in this area we all heard some odd grunting sounds and none of us could decide what animal (if it were an animal) made this noise. We also heard footfalls these sounded like a person approaching us. This made most of the guests uneasy although this is a sound which I have heard many times in that particular area.

The next area we moved to the extent of the woods and came across a spirit called Trevor Simpson who told me that on the spur of the moment had decided to commit suicide in 1978. According to him his life was not worth living and he was suffering from money issues. This energy seemed to be very angry and when I asked for him to make himself known to the guests he refrained from doing much of anything, although he did stand very close to many of the guests and some of these guests felt light touches or a strange feeling behind them. When I asked (via the EMF metre – to light the red light) whether he would like us to go the EMF lit up a lot, however there was also an old lady passing but neither of the spirits actually did anything definite to any of the guests.

Whilst making our way out of the woods, as it was now very cold and many people were feeling the need to walk to warm up we stopped in another very active place, the EMF activity was extremely high. After started a séance a male spirit energy called Simon joined us, he didn’t want to talk about himself only to confirm that he had passed over in the 1950s. Simon proceeded to push people and move arms of several of the guests and at one point the two people either side of me were being bent over by spirit and it was very forceful.

I had the strange sensation that my lungs were burning like I had inhaled some chemical, whether this was due to the extreme cold I don’t know, but this feeling passed as soon as the séance ended. Lots of people including myself reported that when we finished our back were hurting, this to me is strange as this is what I do and I have never felt this kind of pain after holding a séance before.

I conducted another EVP experiment at this location but the results of which are still being analysed.

Whilst we were walking out of the woods the coldness had affected the woods and the puddles and there was a definite crunching underfoot and ice formed in the puddles, it was obviously so cold to one guest as whilst walking he hadn’t noticed that he had lost a shoe, he was that cold.

Once again a very enjoyable ghost hunt and generally much more activity is experienced in the colder months since there are less people in the woods wandering around trying to scare themselves or create a nuisance.

Pluckley Screaming Woods – 8-12-2011

Thursday, December 15th, 2011

Pluckley Screaming woods never cease to amaze us, not least the amount of people we encounter looking for ghosts in the woods and sometimes the wrong woods! I don’t really understand why people get so frightened walking 500 yards away from the car park, the scary places are much deeper into the woods!

We made our way to a particular hot spot and after everyone’s eyes adjusted to the darkness, although it wasn’t that dark because the moon was high in the sky and nearly full we were joined by Bernard, a spirit in his early 20s who was a wood cutter from the 1920s. This spirit energy quickly started to move the arms of Kerry and myself and when I asked Kerry to ask in her head which direction Bernard should move her arm he diligently obliged. Bernard then moved around the circle and stood beside Sid and firstly moved his and my arms, then his and Kamilla’s arms. Sid found this both interesting and alarming, since on our walk into the woods he wanted to know why he had never experienced anything before, now he has his answer. I also asked Sid to do the same as Kerry i.e. ask in his head which direction he wanted his hands to move and once again Bernard obliged.

Another male energy made himself known to me although he didn’t participate as he was watching Bernard. This energy looked like Alf Garnett (for those who can remember that TV show). During this arm movement session and the subsequent pushing that was starting to take place, mainly with Kerry and Steve (guests) we all heard a lot of noise, some of the noises were birds, but some of it also sounded like someone making their way through the woods because we all heard snapping of sticks and questioned whether an animal would make this noise?

After walking a little further into the wood we started with another séance but this time the two energies were female, called Mary and Alice, but they showed themselves via my EMF metre but did not interact with the group. We left this area and moved onto a much more sheltered part of the wood, since it was rather cold but thankfully the rain had stopped.

Almost immediately after forming a circle a male energy called Philip stepped forward, he was about 6’ tall and told me that he had passed away in 1960s in a motorcycle accident on the road which passes through the woods. He very quickly started to push Kerry, Steve and myself and also not intent on just pushing us forwards and backwards but also from side to side. This spirit ghost was also a joker and generally fun loving chap who thought it would be hilarious to push us forwards, actually it felt like our arms were being pulled downwards and we could do nothing but follow. After this rather uncomfortable movement, the spirit started to move arms again and placed one of my arms in front of Kamilla and she said that she felt this warming energy flowing from my hands and that all her clothes were sticking to her. Bino (guest) also had the same treatment but he reported that he felt an odd sensation on his head and all the hairs on his neck were sticking up.

During this session many people including me heard voices, some of which sounded very close, but I severely doubt many people could walk through these woods without the aid of a torch. Although I know I could because I know the woods very well but I certainly wouldn’t be walking around these woods at midnight on my own!

We also heard some rather scary sounding groans or growling, fortunately it sounded far enough away but it was very unusual as I have never heard that sound before, yes I have heard other growling noises in these woods but this was different as it sounded menacing.

When I asked Philip to repeat some whistling the EMF metre spiked with activity although it took several attempts before we as a group heard a reply whistle and even then it was quite a faint sound.

After this I conducted an EVP experiment, which proved to be brilliant, because when I played back the recording I and others could hear a definite spirit voice after I asked my question, well actually the spirit voice was recorded in a gap between me saying my name and me asking my question. This is extremely clear and you can hear it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvH2LQhuQ40

There were several other ghostly spirit voice answers to the guest questions, but these are being analysed because they are not so clear. There was also a sound of an accordion after Kerry asked her question but this is also being analysed by our experts.

Once again a brilliant ghost hunt in Pluckley Screaming woods with the guests experiencing both physical and recorded evidence.
