Public House Investigation
Location-FerrybridgeProperty- Public house/hotel
Team members- 4
Guest investigators- 4
The investigation was led my team leaders Janice and Tony who where frequenters to the location and friends with the owners who had shared numerous stories of the strange occurrences there. With the property being so large with a lot of rooms to cover including some of the hotel rooms upstairs we invited the owners an two of there family members along for the evening.
We set up base camp in one of the uninhabited hotel rooms and set up static cameras in the two rooms we were told had experienced the most activity as well as a static camera in the kitchen area and the dining room which was focused on a high chair that had been reportedly been seen rocking at times. Also we left a camcorder running with a trigger object in view in the cellar building adjacent to the property.
We then split into two teams armed with digital recorders and went to investigate the two hotel rooms,both teams spent considerable time in each, although the atmosphere was tense at times we experienced nothing that could be classed as paranormal.
We also held vigils in two of the other upstairs rooms but again there was nothing to report.
We then moved down into the kitchens as one team. During our time in there investigator Lindsey experienced numerous tickling sensations on the back of her neck an hair whilst standing in the corner of the room. We where informed by the family members that this had been reported before and there where stories of a lady ghost that frequented the kitchen/dining area an could sometimes be heard singing. We hoped to have maybe captured this on the digital recorder.
We then moved into the cellar building where we had considerable k2 responses especially to investigator Kirsty’s voice. Although not enough consistency to be verified communication. We had swept the cellar before setting up for any possible interference and the k2 was well away from any machinery that could have set it off naturally.
Unfortunately the trigger object had not moved out of place.
As we left the cellar one of the family members began to feel uneasy and in his words trapped an alone! He had no idea why but he felt a strong urge for us to open the cellar door and was adamant that we did so we went back out and unlocked it and within minutes his strange feelings had passed. This we found very interesting!
We also held vigils in the main bar, pool room and dining area
On inspecting the footage and audio we had nothing to report but all in all it was an interesting night and a location possibly to be revisited.
