Times: 6pm to 12:15am (approximately)

The first event of this kind organised by SPI sold out 2 times with hundreds being turned away in the days leading up to the event, so with demand like that we felt that we simply had to do it again.

Mark Webb - Haunted Homes - Investigator

David Wells - Most Haunted - Clairvoyant
Ian Lawman - Most Haunted - Medium
Barry John - Most Haunted - Medium

Angela McGhee - Psychic Investigators & Psychic Detectives

Best Selling Author - Jacky Newcomb

The variety of belief and clairvoyant ability in this unique and exclusive line up should provide an interesting and exciting answers & questions session where you will have the opportunity to ask the guests about themselves and their beliefs.

Spiritual ConneXtions Awards 2008
Spiritual ConneXtions Awards 2008

Are proud to say: whilst it was a voyage of discovery and we did learn a lot, we emerged at the end of 2007 even more convinced that the show simply must go on! 'I'm sure you will agree that for decades we have witnessed a variety of professions honoured on a national and international scale. Why is it that actors, musicians, film stars and models receive such fine accolades, while those dedicating themselves to spiritual, holistic, and those involved in the field of paranormal research work remain peculiarly unrecognised - even those who have progressed to theatre andtelevision and become household names?'.

This summer we celebrate Spiritual ConneXtions’ third Birthday and have decided to set about organising the largest spiritual, holistic and paranormal award ceremony
in the UK.

Much hard work has already been invested in this three-day prestigious ceremony with well-established “names” in the spiritual (such as Tony Stockwell), holistic and
paranormal spheres attending.

Our event will be held at the historic Portsmouth Guildhall on 5th, 6th and 7th September 2008 - kicking of with the Friday night evening meal, followed by the main award ceremony and the after-show party.

Saturday 6th September will be a holistic fayre (from 9am until 6pm) with over 60 stalls, many well known celebrities will be offering workshops, talks and will be given demonstrations of mediumship (this includes open platform).

Sunday 7th September we have yet another holistic fayre (from 10am until 3pm), but in the evening we have arranged some of the countries top mediums to demonstrate their mediumistic skills (from 7pm until 10:30pm); the feeling is this year we will exceed all anticipations of our last event.

For more information on our award ceremony including voting/nominations, booking stalls etc, please visit

Spiritual Connextions Awards 2008

If you're a medium and wish to take part in our open platform to win a spot for the Sunday 7th September special mediumship night, then please download the application form from http://www.spiritualconnextions.com/portsmouth(under the holistic Fayre
area).

Most Haunted Live Turin : Night 2 : Lucedio Church
Hot on the heels of last night's foray into the Dark Arts, the Most Haunted team keep the pressure on when they visit the Church and Priest's House at Lucedio.

Suddenly abandoned 15 years ago - so quickly that sacred vestments and holy paraphernalia are still visible within the buildings and there are many reports of strange flickering lights and eerie sounds - could tales of continuing unsettled spirits and phantoms be true and does the Devil return to walk abroad here?

Most Haunted Live - Turin :: San Pietro :: Night 1


The Most Haunted team begin their exploration of Turin with a visit to a de-consecrated cemetery and church - once the final resting place of both the rich and poor, the sacred and the damned (aristocrats shared space with suicides and executed 'criminals' ).

San Pietro is reputed to be haunted by the sad spirit of Russian Princess Barbara Beloselski, who lived a short life - dying at just 28.

She is said to enjoy the company of men, and goes in search of male company before leading her suitors to her grave, revealing herself as a ghost and disappearing. Her body was moved to San Pietro in 1830, and she has since been haunting the area, roaming around with a black veil covering her face, looking for her next male companion.

Now a very eerie depository for books, manuscripts and magazines - scene of many ghostly sightings but most importantly, is said to be the location of black mass rituals within living memory - will the team put substance to these dark shadows?

Most Haunted Series 9 on DVD
With regards the number of enquiries we have received about Most Haunted Series 9 on DVD we contacted Paul Diment of CONTENDER ENTERTAINMENT who produce the Most Haunted DVDs. Here is the reply . . .

"Unfortunately our deal with Virgin Media to distribute the Most Haunted range has now ended, and we will not be producing any more volumes.

We have also deleted the range, so once they have sold out that will be it, until Virgin Media can strike up a deal with another entertainment company."

Thank you to Paul for his reply and we shall just have to wait and see.

I'm Spooked By Scary Movies, Admits Most Haunted Star Yvette Fielding
AS a woman who spends her days creeping around haunted houses illuminated by spooky night-vision, it's no surprise Yvette Fielding's home is decorated with the macabre.

But not even the most ardent fans of Most Haunted would imagine her driveway is guarded by lifesize models of Dracula, Frankenstein, King Kong and the Grim Reaper, while her home office is adorned with severed heads and dismembered corpses....

Most Haunted Live - Turin Italy - Wednesday 26th March 2008
Most Haunted Live as previously mentioned will be from Turin , Italy .. the city of the the devil.

It will be broadcast from Wednesday 26th March 2008 - Sunday 30th March 2008, as it is in Turin there will be no audience tickets.

Turin is most famous for the Turin Shroud. The Shroud of Turin is a centuries old linen cloth that bears the image of a crucified man. A man that millions believe to be Jesus of Nazareth. Is it really the cloth that wrapped his crucified body, or is it simply a medieval forgery, a hoax perpetrated by some clever artist? Modern science has completed hundreds of thousands of hours of detailed study and intense research on the Shroud. It is, in fact, the single most studied artifact in human history, and we know more about it today than we ever have before. And yet, the controversy still rages

For more information on the shroud visit The Shroud Of Turin

Ghosthunting with I'm a Celebrity…
Ghosthunting with I'm a Celebrity…
17th March 9pm, ITV2.

Yvette Fielding takes Christopher Biggins and Cerys Matthews, who are still fresh from "I'm A Celebrity" jungle, along with last year's winner Matt Willis, girlfriend Emma Griffiths, and Dean Gaffney, on a ghost hunting trip of a lifetime!

With a journey fitting in haunted pubs, abandoned hospitals and eerie homes it's a wild night ahead that beats any jungle.

source : Antix Productions Website

UPDATE


The latest we have is the press release below :

Taking a trip into the deepest, darkest places Dudley has to offer, the world’s foremost ghost hunter, Yvette Fielding and a selection of the best ghost busters from the I’m A Celebrity series prepare to delve into the spooky unknown. Join the current jungle King Christopher Biggins, his fellow jungle companion, Cerys Matthews, jungle legend Dean Gaffney and ITV2 presenters Emma Griffiths and Matt Wills as they prepare to face their most frightening fears yet. Ghost Hunting With…I’m A Celebrity is brand new and exclusive to ITV2, Wednesday 26 March at 9pm.

The I’m A Celeb gang are no strangers to fear, but how will their nerves hold up as they set off to face a selection of spooky locations? First up is The Black Country Living Museum; a collection of local buildings gathered together and rebuilt brick by brick. The team’s first challenge is to visit The Bottle and Glass pub. Built in 1776 the building is said to be haunted by a ghost called Reynolds. It is believed that Reynolds actually murdered a man called Isaac and is now very unappreciative of any male company in his presence – let’s see how he reacts when Dean, Matt and Christopher enter his humble abode.

The group is then separated and blindfolded as they are led to different locations throughout the museum. Dean is the first celeb to spend some time alone and heads for the chemist, Christopher and Cerys set off for the hardware store, and Matt and Emma take residence at the chocolate shop to seek out some friendly children ghosts.

The second location of the evening is the Cast Iron House which was built in 1925. The house is said to be haunted by the ghost of a man named Jack and it is here the group take part in a planchett session.

The last location of the evening is the Dudley Guest Hospital which was formerly a blind asylum. Here a lady is said to have walked through walls, the squeaking of trolley wheels can be heard, as well as whistling and sightings of strange lights. Here the team conduct a séance in one of the disused operating theatres, after which they split up and explore the eerie nooks and crannies of the building.

Join ITV2 this spring as some of the nation’s most loved I’m A Celeb troopers embark upon a ghost busting trip of a lifetime. Will they manage to spend an entire night at the chosen locations with Yvette? ITV2 dares you to tune in to find out.

Paranormal Magazine - The End of an Era
I know some of you subscribe to this magazine, hence the posting:

Despite repeated attempts at contact by their writers, advertisers, subscribers and the media, communication from the Paranormal Magazine office has been non-existent for the last 6 weeks. Already concerned by the lack of contact, when the MySpace's of editor/creator Allison Jordan and Paranormal Magazine were shut down, along with the main Paranormal Magazine website, alarm bells started to ring.

Today, it has been confirmed that Paranormal Magazine has indeed been closed down. The magazine allegedly owes massive amounts to creditors and is unable to continue in it's current form. It has been rumoured that monies taken for subscriptions are unlikely to be repaid - although it is believed that attempts are being made by the administrators put in charge of the business to make restitution where they can.

A sad end to what was once an interesting read.

The Borley Rectory Companion


In 1929 stories of the happenings at a remote house in an isolated part of England caught the public imagination and for nearly eighty years Borley Rectory has proved to be one of the most enduring and controversial cases of haunting ever recorded. Its ghosts are now world famous and its most ardent champion, the flamboyant and maverick ghost hunter Harry Price (1881-1948) has become ‘one of the most fascinating and storm-provoking figures’ in the history of psychical research.

Sixty years after Harry Price ’s death, a major new book on the Borley Rectory case will be published. Interwoven between the reports of earthbound spirits, apparitions, poltergeist phenomena, ghost hunting vigils and séances is a human drama almost as remarkable as the paranormal happenings alleged to have occured at the lonely Essex rectory. The Borley Rectory Companion is the most comprehensive reference work ever compiled on the ‘most haunted house in England’, written by three leading authorities on the haunting and in an original and unique modern format, together with a Foreword by philosopher and writer Colin Wilson, the well-respected author of over eighty books including several studies of the occult and the paranormal.

The Borley Rectory Companion - The Complete Guide to the 'Most Haunted House in England' will be published by Sutton Publishing in Autumn 2008.

The Winchester House, USA. First showing in the UK
Living TV Tuesday 12th February 2008 at 9pm

Join head investigator Yvette Fielding, spiritual medium David Wells, and the rest of the 'Most Haunted Live' team for the highlights of their 7-hour investigation. Armed with night-vision cameras, thermal-imaging devices and other paranormal investigation tools, the team will perform a thorough investigation of the mansion and attempt to communicate with the paranormal.

Their investigation will lead them into the basement, through secret passageways, and to the mysterious séance room where Sarah Winchester sought help from spirits to guide her vision to build what is now a 161-room estate. The architecture of the house - doors that lead to steep drop-offs; stairs that lead to ceilings; and a skylight built inside the house – will add an element of surprise.

Corrie star shaken up by 'ghost'


Coronation Street actress Kym Ryder was reduced to tears during the latest instalment of Ghost Hunting With..., set to air in March.

The brunette was among cast members past and present taking part in the show, including Jack P Shepherd (David Platt), Katherine Kelly (Becky Granger), Tupele Dorgu (Kelly Crabtree) and Wendi Peters (Cilla Battersby-Brown).

"Kym got very emotional during some of the filming," a source told the Daily Star Sunday.

"She said she saw a ghost and that really shook her up. It was quite intense."

"The filming of the Vera death scenes was in everyone's memory and I don't think she could get it out of her head."

According to the insider, Ryder became convinced she'd seen something go bump in the night during her visit to a spooky location on the Isle of Man.

It's not the first time the cast of Corrie have gone looking for ghosts.

Simon Gregson, who plays Ryder's on-screen lover Steve, was a guest on a special edition of Most Haunted, also hosted by Yvette Fielding.

Ironically, Fielding once auditioned for a role on the soap, vying to play Rita Sullivan's (Barbara Knox) daughter.

The Great Spiritual Clash


Dr Ciaran O'Keeffe and Billy Roberts have combined their individual professional efforts and written a book entitled THE GREAT SPIRITUAL CLASH! - in the shops from July 2008. Ciaran O'Keeffe, as many people will know, appears regularly on the popular television programme MOST HAUNTED. Although Ciaran and Billy come from very different backgrounds, the book is a confrontational project that culminates into a 'meeting of minds', and is a debate on all aspects of the paranormal. They have also created an extremely unusual stage show, based primarily on the book, and this will first be staged in the West End of London and then onto Broadway in New York. They also begin filming this for a new television programme to be shown in the UK towards the end of 2008.

A New Medium For Most Haunted Series 10
As I am sure you are all aware from a previous post David Well's is not taking part in Series 10.

We have heard a number of theories to his replacement, the most recent and feasable is that it is Barrie John. Barrie was the national award winner for Best Up And Coming Medium 2007 at the Spiritual Connextions Awards in October 2007 and has had a lot of experience in the paranormal investigation field.

We have contacted Barrie and unfortunately he could not comment which we fully appreciate, take this as positive or negative.

"Hi Paul, thanks for the email. At the moment I am unable to comment on this subject. Sorry"

Was That A Ghost - New Book by Yvette Fielding and Ciaran O'Keefe
WAS THAT A GHOST?" - A ghostly 'bible' for both believers and sceptics.

Yvette Fielding and Dr. Ciarán O'Keeffe (from Living TV's smash hit series, Most Haunted) have joined together in writing this gripping and informative book that guides the reader through the paranormal world. It goes back to the beginning of the first séances and reported apparitions through to their own investigations carried out in haunted locations exclusively for this book. Ciarán and Yvette have chosen 5 cases, never examined before, and endeavour to spend time in these exclusive haunted locations. These case files take the reader from an impartial observer to first-hand participant. With the increase in the number of amateur groups investigating alleged haunted locations, with the prevalence of paranormal television shows whose focus is on capturing the elusive apparition, a discussion of what constitutes the evidence is necessary, and compelling.
The benefit of an open discussion from two different viewpoints is obvious. Ciarán and Yvette, two authors who have trodden their paths of curiosity about the questions, here discuss the answers they have discovered... Yvette and Ciarán urge that 'those of a nervous disposition should NOT read this after dark'!

Ghost Hunting with Happy Mondays
The Happy Mondays have signed to appear on an episode of ITV2's Ghost Hunting With... series.

Four members of the iconic Manchester band – lead singer Shaun Ryder, percussionist Bez, drummer Gary Whelan and backing vocalist Julie Gordon – will hold a seance at a Victorian jail in Lincoln, before tracking down spectres at a Nottingham manor house that was used for sex parties in Elizabethan times.

Pop groups Girls Aloud and McFly, several members of the Emmerdale cast and a group of Radio 1 DJs have previously appeared on the show, which is hosted by former Blue Peter presenter Yvette Fielding.

Bez, the winner of Celebrity Big Brother in 2005, said: "You've got to watch this one, man - especially if you don't believe in 'em. Yvette's not kidding when she says that she doesn't know who's gonna be more scared - the ghosts or us. You decide!"

Ghost Hunting With… The Happy Mondays will air on 14th April, ITV2 at 9pm

Gordon Smith Life Changing Messages
The messages that Gordon has conveyed to people from friends and relatives in the Spirit world have had a profound impact on their lives. Learning that death is not the ultimate and final end that we fear is a powerful catalyst to changing the way that we view our lives.This gripping book is full of extraordinary personal accounts from a wide range of people, including many high-profile celebrities. They describe the profound and life-changing messages that have reassured, challenged and inspired them. Gordon himself is often profoundly affected by the messages he shares with people and in this moving and engaging book he describes the messages that he has received that have altered his view of the world.

Most Haunted Series 10


There are rumours of Series 10 line up on numerous sites including the LIVING TV Forum starting on 29th January 2008.

Reliable sources tell me these are NOT genuine and Series 10 is still being filmed.

"Some locations have been filmed but not all are confirmed."

Sorry to disappoint as soon as we have GENUINE information we will bring it to you :-)

We spoke with Phil Whyman with the suggestion he is in episodes of series 10. Here is his reply


"Well, well, well...another 'Phil this, Phil that rumour' ...lol
If you are talking about the RAF COLEBY GRANGE episodes (12 & 13 of series 10) then I can tell you all now that it is just that: A RUMOUR.

RAF Coleby Grange is not too far from where I used to live in Lincolnshire and believe me it is just 1 building; a small, derelict control tower.
It would not acommodate a group of 4 let alone a dozen MH crew...and certainly NOT for a week long invest.

Apparently MH have also done the RED LION pub in Pontefract - I was only there the other week and trust me, you would not want to really do an overnighter in there, nor did we hear of any mention on the team doing it.

I dont know...

David Wells Leaving Most Haunted


David Wells has commented on the rumours he is to leave Most Haunted.
As published on www.wellsangels.co.uk, his official fansite.


Hello Angels.

I thought it fitting to announce on my official fansite and to all my lovely fans that the rumours of my departure from Most Haunted are in fact true. I have had the most wonderful time working with the team over the past few years but the travelling and the energy the show takes out of me was taking a toll on my health.

Sometimes in life we have to make some tough choices and this has been one of them, I will miss everyone on the show and wish Most Haunted continued success.

Moving forward I am concentrating on my writing and most exciting of all, getting out and about doing workshops and lectures throughout this country and others.

I am sure of your support and I am grateful for it.

I wish you and yours a very Happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year.

David x

Most Haunted Live USA Eastern State : Living TV : CHRISTMAS DAY, 9PM


For the first time in the history of the show, Most Haunted has ventured to America, where the team has investigated what is widely regarded as one of America’s most haunted places: the world’s first penitentiary, Eastern State in Philadelphia.

Presenters Yvette Fielding and Paul Ross, medium David Wells and historian Lesley Smith travel to the prison, which was opened in 1829 and abandoned in 1971. Eastern State Penitentiary was part of a controversial movement which sought to rehabilitate prisoners using solitary confinement and hard labour. It is widely believed that its brutal regime caused extensive mental illness among its inmates.

The prison housed many famous criminals, including bank robber Willie Sutton and gangster Al Capone, and is renowned for the eerie experiences and mysterious visions that both staff and inmates experience there.

Originally broadcast in the USA only in June 2007, this is the first time this will be broadcast in the UK.

Most Haunted Live Halloween 2007 : Plag Teg : Night 5


The historic and architecturally important mansion of Plas Teg has dominated the Welsh countryside for nearly 400 years, writes Mark Baker.
It was built by Sir John Trevor I in about 1610; it was here that this eminent courtier expressed his worldly aspirations and social standings through the grandeur of his private residence, which undoubtedly was used for sumptuous entertaining.
At the time of construction it was the most advanced house in Wales and few others of this date can truly be compared to its uniqueness. Throughout the early 17th Century it was primarily a family home and the setting for lavish entertainments put on by the Trevor family. It was only after the death of Lady Margaret Trevor, wife of Sir John Trevor I and the onset of the Civil War that the house was tenanted out and the family resided at their other residences.
During the 18th century it was used off and on by the family and it was only until Lord and Lady Dacre inherited that Plas Teg once again became a family home. The young couple set about altering the house, gardens and outbuildings, a trend continued by their heir Cadwallader Blayney Trevor-Roper. It was this young, Irish born, distant relative that inherited the wealthy Plas Teg estate in 1809 following the death of Lady Dacre, an action that did not sit well with the Trevalyn Trevors who felt they were deprived of their rightful inheritance.
For nearly a century, Plas Teg was, in the main, a happy home, housing subsequent generations of the Trevor-Ropers. It was through the devastating effect of two World Wars and multiple death duties that this came to an end and the estate was broken up to be sold.
During the Second World War, the house and outbuildings were requisitioned by the War Office to house soldiers and it was during this time that the decay of Plas Teg began. In 1945 it was sold to Dodds the auctioneers who used it as a furniture store and by the mid 1950s it was an estate of advanced decay.
Dodds applied for its demolition which was refused following a public outcry and Plas Teg was brought back by Patrick Trevor-Roper, a direct descendant of the original owners. He partially restored the house and let it out to various friends and acquaintances including a distant relation of mine. By the late 1970s, the house proved too unwieldy and it was sold privately to a young student couple who, in turn, found it hard to cope with such a vast property.
Then in 1986, it was bought by Cornelia Bayley, an antiques dealer and interior designer from London who had experience of restoring historic houses, managing to return Plas Teg to its former glory. Despite its fame as one of the most haunted houses in Wales, Mrs Bayley has never forgotten Sir John Trevor I's lavish original vision.
She has restored the destroyed formal gardens, forecourt and gazebos which had all but disappeared at the end of the 18th century. Today, its interiors are sumptuously filled with an interesting and notable collection of antique furniture, porcelain, objet d'arts and paintings dating from the 17th century to the present day.

Supposedly one of the most haunted places in the UK. Built in 1610 by Sir John Trevor, it's been considered haunted since even then – Sir John's gatekeeper commited suicide after seeing a ghost. There have been at least three other violent deaths, not counting those caused by the most infamous resident.
Before becoming Lord Chief Justice of England (1681-3), then Lord Chancellor (1983-88), then dying in the Tower of London, 'Hanging Judge' Jeffries lived here in the 17th Century. He held court in the dining room; those sentenced to hang were executed immediately in an adjoining room.
There have been a disproportionate number of accidents on the nearby A541 dual carriageway, many of them caused by motorists swerving around ghostly figures.

Most Haunted Live Bolsover Castle Report
The investigation of Bolsover Castle began with some background information, including the word Bolsover is said to mean ‘Devil’s Pasture, in the room called the ‘Pagan Room’ it is said if you lie on the floor and say ‘Sleep No More’ you will die and William Peveril who built the castle in 1086 was a known devil worshipper and held regular eleborate pagan parties. He fled the castle into exile in 1155. The devil is also said to have visited the castle and when he left he hit the local church spire twisting it.
The investigation began on the first floor with David Wells unsettled and complaining of a fast heart beat, he warned of hedonistic feelings, energies he was not used to. In the Star Room he picked up on past lavish parties that were extremely endulgent. The first presence he sensed was that of a lady in a pinder blue gown with a short skirt to it. Also a cavilier style gentleman from the 1600’s who he gave the name William to.
The first séance picked on the aforementioned William who spelt out his surname as ‘CAWENDIJUQ’, Leslie Smith in the hub believed this was a badly spelt ‘Cavendish’, who did renovations to the castle in the 1600’s.
Leslie posed questions through the séance asking how Mad Madge Of Newcastle was and was she playing with the devil. This was William Cavendish’s wife, Margaret Cavendish . (Born into an East Anglian Royalist family in 1623, young Margaret Lucas went into Court service, joining the Queen, Henrietta Maria, in Oxford during the Civil War and sharing her hair-raising escape to France in 1644. While in Paris she married Willianm Cavendish, Marquess of Newcastle, who was famous for his horsemanship. They lived together in exile for more than 10 years, as part of a Royalist circle that included aristocrats and intellectual giants of the day. )
On returning to the Pagan Room it was Karl and Stuart who had to test the theory of lying on the floor, even Ciaran O’Keefe was to follow suit. After this the team split up Karl & Stuart into the kitchen, Cath and Yvette in the Housemaids Room, David and Ciaran in the Lantern room and Geoff and Wigan remained Pagan Room.
The only outcome was Karl who fell down some steps probably over a cable.
The team regrouped in the ‘Hell Room’ for another séance. David picked up on Margaret, Elizabeth, who he described as a powerful woman and he said had a connection to Leslie in the hub. Ciaran caught a sound or voice on EVP which would be checked later. Geoff the cameraman then did a lone vigil in the kitchen.

Most Haunted Live Halloween 2007 : Bolsover Castle : Night 4



Raised by the Peverel family in the 12th century, very little is known of the original Bolsover Castle. A stone Keep was built c1173, surrounded by a curtain wall with an outer bailey, but the wall was breached in 1216 during the reign of King John. Surviving fragments of this curtain wall were later incorporated in a wall walk that can be seen in the castle garden.

Bolsover Castle became Crown property in 1155 when the third William Peverel fled into exile, but by 1400 it had lost its strategic importance. Years of occupation by tenants had left Bolsover Castle ruinous by the time it was purchased by Sir George Talbot in 1553. Talbot, later becoming the 6th Earl of Shrewsbury, is noted for two famous associations. Firstly, his marriage to 'Bess of Hardwick', probably the most astute business woman of the 16th century, who owned the vast Chatsworth estates. And then his lengthy term as keeper to the exiled Mary Queen of Scots, a 16 year duty that seriously drained the family's resources.

To ease the financial burden, Bolsover Castle was first leased to Sir Charles Cavendish in 1608, and five years later he became the owner. Employing Robert Smythson as his architect, Cavendish set about re-building Bolsover Castle. The tower, known today as the little castle, was completed c1621, and building work continued with their sons adding the terrace and riding school ranges. Used as extra accommodation, the Terrace Range originally consisted of apartments and kitchens, but with a Royal visit imminent this range was extended to include a long gallery and an external staircase. When Charles I and his Queen arrived in 1634, the Riding School Range was probably at foundation level. At completion, the school had every facility required, including a forge, a tack and harness room, a large arena, and an upper viewing gallery. One of the most notable features of the Riding School range is its magnificent timber roof.

With the advent of the Civil War, Sir William Cavendish took command of the Royalist troops who were defeated at Marston Moor, in 1644. Although he survived, he was forced to flee into exile and Bolsover Castle was surrendered to Parliamentarian troops in August of the same year. After the reformation of the Monarchy in 1660, Sir William Cavendish was able to return to England and his now ruinous castle. Despite great financial problems, he added a new hall and staterooms to the Terrace Range and, by the time of his death in 1676, Bolsover Castle had been restored to good order. His successors, however, chose to live at Welbeck Abbey and in 1752 they stripped the lead from the roof of the Terrace Range at Bolsover Castle to effect the necessary repairs to their preferred residence.

The Little Castle and the Riding School Range survived much better, and was let to the Curate of Bolsover in 1834. Following the death of his widow in 1883, Bolsover Castle remained uninhabited and was eventually given to the nation by the 7th Duke of Portland in 1945.

Bolsover Castle, once the home of Sir Charles Cavendish, whose family owned Chatsworth, is reported to have a fairly active ghost in the domestic quarters.

A spectral figure of a woman carrying a baby is regularly seen in the kitchen.

“She obviously cares deeply about the child because she very carefully lays it down before disappearing. But, inexplicably, she puts it in the fireplace,” the book recounts.

A local legend claims that the devil was in Bolsover one day and decided to have his hooves shoed by the local blacksmith. Unfortunately, the blacksmith drove a nail into the soft part of the devil’s hoof, who took off with a scream of agony. As Chesterfield church was in his way, it received the full force of one of his frenzied kicks – which accounts for its twisted spire

Most haunted Live Towneley Hall Report of Events
Towneley Hall in Burnely was introduced to us as ‘just a stones throw away from Pendle Hill’ and past viewers will remember the events there. On entering the building psychic medium David Wells picked up on a large assured gentleman wearing Elizabethan clothing and a dominant woman. Historian Lesley Smith was quick to associate the gentleman with John Towneley.

The investigation began on the main staircase where David began to feel enclosed and put upon by the energy (Past Amtosphere) of the house. As they entered the 1st floor gallery Wigan felt nervous and dizzy, Ciaran O’Keefe reported humidity of just 44% and temperate of 21 degrees.
On entering the first bedroom David sensed a lady in white and noise where heard that could be described as a moaning, the team thought this was more of a melody. A whistle was heard back in the long gallery and Yvette called out for responses to questions asking for taps in return. She reported the ‘responses’ where that 5 spirits were present, they should leave and the presence meant them harm. Ciaran was quick to point out with the wooden floor and wall panelling they should not take what may well be natural noises to be responses, a view Yvette was unhappy to accept.

Back in the hub Leslie associated the lady in white with Lady Sybil, who was associated with the witches of Pendle Hill.

The team began to set up for a séance and David offered the team ‘protection’, something that Karl and Stuart refused. The séance began and David once more made contact with the Lady in White, as well as giving a number of names; Isobel, Jane, Francis, John and Lawrence. With the use of a Ouija Board the phrase ‘U ARE MINE’ was spelt out and the following transcript took place:

Do you know who we are ? YES
Did we meet before ? NO
Are you a witch ? NO
What do we call you ? M
Where you hanged for murder ? YES
Did you kill children ? YES
Do you have a message for Karl ? NO

At this point Lesley in the hub put forward questions via Yvette

Are you a Towneley ? No
Are you an abortionist ? Yes
In this house ? Yes
Are you a witch ? Yes

The word ‘DIE was then spelt out

Where you set up ? Yes
Do you have a hatred for the family ? MURDER
Where you murdered ? Yes
What’s your surname ? M
Did you get money for your services ? Yes
Do you worth with the goat mendes ? Yes

This question was put to confirm that the spirit was a Black Witch and mendes was a symbol of the occult.

As the séance continued one of the cameramen, Geoff’ fell backwards through the door and Yvette believed he had been pulled. The team then took time out to recover from these events.

Regrouping in the cellar whining noises and bangs where heard, which once a gain could have been natural sounds. David felt there were bodies in the ground and sensed war type figures.

On request from the viewers Karl and Yvette went up to the attic, with Stuart on camera and Simon on sound. There was no activity and all noises heard could be put down to the movement of the webcam and clock mechanism house in the attic.

On returning downstairs the team regrouped in the Towneley Room and Cath was singled out to do a lone vigil in the long gallery, not comfortable to do this David Wells took her place leaving the rest of the team to carry out another séance. Something he voiced he was unhappy about.

After a sedate start the Karl and Yvette resorted to insults to provoke a reaction and where rewarded by movement of the glass. Yvette then went against advise from David Wells and recited a spell she had got from Leslie Smith to uncloak a witch. The response was instaneous as the heavy table they were using jerking backwards into Yvette and Cath. Once more there was no camera under the table to quantify this was not a team member.

Most Haunted Live Halloween 2007 : Towneley Hall : Night 3


Towneley Hall is a large country house, and its surrounding estate on the outskirts of Burnley, Lancashire.

Towneley Hall was the home of the Towneley family from the 14th century until 1902. The park covers many acres and houses football pitches, bowling greens and a vast woodland containing many walks.
In 1926 a War Memorial was erected in the park and was unveiled on December 12th by the Earl of Derby.

It is rumoured that the Hall is haunted by a spirit whose visits were limited to once every seven years, when its thirst for vengeance had to be satisfied by the untimely death of one of the Hall residents.
Legend says that Sir John Towneley (1473 -1541) was said to have offended and injured the poor of the district by enclosing some of the area’s common land where the villagers used to graze their cattle, making it part of the park. As a result, his soul is said to wander about the Hall, crying out: "Be warned ! Lay out! Be warned! Lay out! Around Hore-Law and Hollin-Hey Clough, To her children give back the widows cot, For you and yours there’s still enough."

In addition to this wailing spirit there are a few other phantoms reported to wander the grounds of Towneley Park. Deep within the woods behind the hall is a small bridge that crosses the stream. This is supposed to be haunted by the ghost of a white lady. Who she is, nobody knows. Perhaps she waits at the bridge for a lover who never returned. Or was it simply a place of peacefulness that she enjoyed in life.
Quite close to the bridge is a long avenue through the woods. It runs from Todmorden Road staight to the back of the hall. It has been reported that the sound of marching boots has been heard coming down this avenue. Some say that it is the ghost of Roundheads, sent by Oliver Cromwell, coming to arrest Charles Towneley, or that it is the ghost of a faithful retainer reporting that his master had been killed in the massacre of July 2nd, 1644.

Lepard Inn : Night 2 : Events
The night started in what was referred to as the Red Room, the room the night would later finish in. A tankard was heard to fall on the floor and beer mats later followed. From a technical point of view Ciaran's thermal camera locked up when he started to check the beermats for heat. David Wells picked up the prescence of a man with a goaty beard and bad skin, who may have murdered a woman.

As they moved on David picked up on 'prostituation' in the premises and confirmed the murder of the woman was in the 1860's.

A seance in the function room picked up once more on this man and the name 'Grenville' or 'Granville' was given. Leslie Smith, historian, later confirmed a woman had had her throat cut in this very room.

The team moved up to the next floor leaving Karl to continue a vigil on his own. David now picked up on 'James', a man with an agressive character, who he believed was a former owner of the inn. David later stated she was a loner and not pretty in appearance.

On moving into the cellar Cath reported to have been pushed twice. David picked up on 'Maragret', a woman from the 1700's, who was a lonely figure. Leslie connected her to be Mary ' Mollie' Lee a prior tenant or owner who was reported to be a witch. David also picked up on children running about in this area.

A door, that was leaning against a wall, fell to the floor whether this was knocked over or fell from unknown causes in unknown.

The night finished with a seance in the Red Room using an overturned tankard on the table. The table was seen to move but because of the lack of a camera at floor level there was no solid evidence this was being moved by paranormal activity. David reported the 'activity to be caused by 3 or 4 prescences in the room who may want to play.
