We do not classify ourselves as Ghost Hunters… more Ghost Analysts. Our main focus is to approach the field of the paranormal from a scientific view NOT a gimmicked one, studying and collecting evidence that will support the existence of the paranormal using scientific methods, research and witness testimony.Kathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03505333519932914021noreply@blogger.comBlogger251100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455337067211105127.post-50689123139385894682009-10-27T06:08:00.000-07:002009-10-31T11:37:18.845-07:00

EIGHT FACES OF EVIL It amazes me all the MHL events have menacing titles, Village of the Dammed, 8 Faces of Evil, are there no nice ghosts out there? I think it should be titled "Where's Jake?"This time its staged at Morecombe Winter Gardens a well publicised haunted location (as you know SA have been there). I was scratching my head wondering how the heck they are going to span out 8 days in

We took a little drive out to Abergele to visit the magnificent Gwrych Castle. The castle was built in 1819 and has had subsequent owners until it s gradual decline after the second WW.I had read many stories of the ghostly goings on in the castle and wanted to check the site myself. Unfortunately the site is totally derelict thanks to the Vandals... yet another sad case of the declining of welsh

Today myself and Sarah took a little trip to The Old Hall, Madley, to interview the present owner, Simon with a view to performing and investigation over the summer. It is an incredible building and Simon has done a magnificent job of the restoration work which is no mean task with a building this age.It dates back to the 15the Century and its main claim to fame is that it was a safe haven for

At our last investigation at the Mitch Theatre we tried a new experiment using a pendulum. The pendulum was suspended through a perspex plate which was then placed over the top of a perspex cylinder.The idea behind this was that it would exclude any outside interference weather environmental or physical (from team members) . It eliminates any personal contact whatsoever.We place the devise in the

I found this poem today, and its verse has prompted me to place this particular one on our blog. Why? Some time ago Steve and myself were going over the final edits to our article for the Ghost Voices Magazine in a local pub (a particularly haunted one). Steve had also written a short piece for our blog too, and he was wondered whether it would be suitable for a future article in the mag.The

Our investigation at the 'Mitch' took place on Valentines night. The Mitch was built in 1957 on the foundations of the Whitehouse (seen here), a house built by John Baddeley, a pottery manufacturer in the mid 17c and many of its staff and players have experienced a wide variety of strange phenomena over the years, and we were all very looking forward to the nights investigation.

Our first investigation of the new year will be held at the MITCHEL MEMORIAL THEATRE, Hanley, S-O-T in February. The Mich (as it is know locally) was built after the second world war as a tribute to Reginald Mitchel (photo far left, above), the designer of the Spitfire fighter plane. Unfortunately he never saw it fly as he died of cancer shortly before its maiden flight. It was considered that

We have taken on two new rookies into the fold, Sarah and Shula. They are both extremely keen to get started and had been looking to get more involved with a local group for some time. They will be in training for 6 months after which if they pass our stringent tests (you know the usual, lone vigils in dark dank cellars, grave yard shift ect [only joking]) you will be hearing much more from them

Well here we go again, batten down the hatches for another 7 nights of Most Haunted Live .We are being promised a show that over 6 nights will conjure up 6 types of ghosts ending, on the 7th night with the ultimate entity (mmm I wonder who THAT could be?). I shall as usual be making my beguiled comments on the individual nightly events. Will they finally find the 'Evil' they have been searching

IT IS A VERY SAD DAY TODAY.The ballroom at the Asylum has been conveniently 'demolished' by fire. Very convenient don't you think, only a week after the protests in Denbigh. My fears are what will be next? I think there will have to be an investigation as to what caused it. Ian McGregor commented fromt the forum ..."A convenient way to get rid of bats, shut up the protesters, and an excuse to

3 Years ago northwaleshospital.co.uk was set up to help promote public views on the decaying Victorian asylum. After two years of the grounds staying stagnant, public awareness of the hospital diminished and the website shut down.Now with the plans coming to the final stages consciousness and memories of the hospital are now at the forefront of people thoughts, this is why they have taken action

Hurray (she cries swinging form the chandeliers) I'm so glad MH had finally managed to get into the Asylum, and to do 7 nights 'live' well that's just fantastic. I am very passionate about the asylum and I've noticed there has been a bit of an uproar from residents and the council on MH approach to their investigations and experiments they are conducting. To some degree I have to agree them.

Dragoon Publishing kindly allowed us to perform a private investigation of their offices located in Dane Mill, originally a silk mill built around the mid -late 1700. All their team joined in with the vigil which commenced at 9pm and finished at around 3.30am. A wonderful building to investigate a full report will be posted once all evidence has been collected and correlated. Althought it was a

SA have recently been approached by Dragoon Publishing who author the magazine 'Skirmish' to write a small article for their new publication (to be launched very soon). The bi-monthly publication will focus on paranormal phenomena in the local area and the history behind haunted buildings. In particular they will be concentrating on:* public houses* workplaces (such as old mills, etc)* hotels

Monday night Jaquie came over to my house and I showed her the video footage which Steve took in the cellar of her experience at Morecambe Winter Gardens. We both pondered over the footage listening carefully to the audio and of her reactions and thos around her. We always try and wheedle out every possible factor that could have contributed to what happened to her, could it have been the hype

This photograph was taken on our investigation at the Gym, Winsford (full report on our investigations page). Look carefully, there were four persons sitting on the gym mat facing the mirror, I was the one taking the photograph (behind the flash light). The orb is probably dust, but there looks to be a figure of a woman wearing what seems to be a short sleeved 'V' necked shirt, in the circle?It

SA joined and arranged investigation at the Morecambe Winter Gardens on Saturday night. A lot of hype had been drawn from the Most Haunted Crew so we thought we would check it out ourselves.

Last night (25th) we visited Denbigh Asylum. This is our 3rd visit (for some) but this was actually Steve's 1st. The weather was perfect, but sadly the Vandals has made even more damage than we had expected, we could not believe how much. The morgue has been totally desecrated and the mortuary slab, I am sad to say is no more... totally smashed to pieces. As for the building itself we feel it is
