It was great meeting you last night and the rest of the team. Thank you for organising a fantastic evening of ghosthunting for us. I know everyone had areally good time and it was a great way to raise funds for our charity. Attached are the photos I took and I’ll tryto get some of the other people that were there to send me theirs too. The first 4 photos all have orb like things on them although Im not too sure if the one taken in the Gainsborough room is actually dust. The one thing I find a little strange though, is that on photo 010 the orbs are brighter around the medium (sorry I can't remember his name) than on any of the others pictures. Ive also attached photo 011 which shows nothing abnormal and it was taken at about the same time and at the same angle as 010?? It turns out I actually didn’t really take that many photo's, I wasfar too engrossed in the evening. Anyway here is a list of some of the thingsthat happened to my group and Julie’s group.
Some of the things that were happening in my team includethe tapping in the attic which I heard through the earphones and seemed tofollow on and match your tapping on the sideboard. Then on our last session with Richard in theentrance hall we had some good communication with a lady called Mary. She came through using the glass on the tableand was moving it for ‘yes’ and keeping it still for ‘no’. We managed to find out that Mary was thehouse cook when the hall opened in 1702.
Richard asked her if she knew she wasdead, which she did, and we managed to find out she died at the hall in her 30’sfrom an illness. She never married and had no children but really enjoyed herjob which was why she visited there. We found out she was born in the 1680’sand had come from a good background as she was quite well educated being ableto read and write! We also got in contact with the butler of the house. Wedidn’t get his name but the outside light kept flickering whilst the glass wasmoving with him. The outside light then went off and we asked if he had done it- he answered ‘yes’. We asked if he would turn it back on again to which hereplied ‘No’. We then asked if he could turn it on if he wanted to and heanswered ‘Yes’. We asked if he was happy about us being there which he wasn’tas he preferred the house quiet. Richard then asked him if he knew he was deadand the glass just stopped moving. That was it from him. Mary came back in andapparently we had upset the butler as he didn’t know!
Paul decided to ask Mary some more light hearted questionsinstead of dwelling on how she died, so we managed to find out that there wasone particular meat dish she liked to cook but we didn’t get what it was.
Julie said that their session in the Gainsborough room at the end of theevening was fantastic. There were just 5of them left (Julie, Ian, Karl, Gill and Michelle) and they were using theglass on the table. Things did get offto a slow start but when Karl took his finger off things started tohappen. Gill had the night visionglasses and could see loads of orbs. They established they were speaking to a younglady in her 20's and there were children present too. Alison, Gill and Julie were feeling cold spotsand Michelle was burning up for the second time that night. She said that onceyou and Alison left the rooms things started to hot up. Karl said his legs and hands were freezingand felt like someone was on his knee, they asked if any of the children wereon Karl’s knee, the glass moved with vigour across the table. Michelle was saton the floor and got poked, she moved to the chair in the corner where Alisonhad had her hair pulled. The chair movedand she could feel someone touching her charm bracelet. They asked if one of the children wastouching Michelle’s bracelet the glass moved across the table.
Karl put on the head phones and Gill knocked on the table twice and asked thelady to knock back. They heard 2 faintknocks, so she then asked the children to knock and we all heard one faintknock.
Karl could then hear faint children and when they were asking for their nameshe heard a little girl when they said Mary. Karl then could pick up a lot of things and was telling them what toask. Apparently the lady didn’t likeKarl because he reminded her of her husband, but the children adored him. He had cold knees and hands for most of the sittingwhere the twins Amelia and Mary were sat with him (they were 2 years old). Emilywas the one wondering around touching people she was 5 years old. They found out that they weren't the ladieschildren but she just looked after them in spirit. The ladies husband was called James and thelady, they think, was called Wendy.
All this information was established by asking questions and the glass movedfor yes and stayed still for no, at some points the glass was too far the otherside for Julie to reach so she had to let go but this did not affect the glasses movement atall. In fact at some point each of uslet go so that there was just 2 fingers on the glass, confirming to them allthat it wasn’t the other person pushing the glass.
