GHOST HUNT EXCLUSIVE
So you have seen all the paranormal shows on TV. Well now is your chance to become an investigator. We pride ourselves on our scientific research and we are a gadget friendly group although we also like to use old school original methods of contacting spirits which include talk boards, table tipping and human pendulum. Although we do enjoy our gadgets, we are big believers that the best tool for the night is yourself. Open up all your senses!!
Nothing is faked and we can’t make the spirits perform – what you see is what you get! A real, paranormal investigation. What will you uncover when the lights go out? Only the brave will dare!!
