Journal Entry 4

Image
2/10/22 - Entry 4 The time is 00:02 and I am considering doing something both incredibly stupid yet poignant. It's been a while since I last wrote in here and I am still yet to use the graph paper. I've been too focused on my writing and rebuilding to do anything investigation related.  However, I did do an investigation the other night. Not much happened and I did it in the living room with both the bear and all three balls out, the bear was in the centre of the room, the balls were scattered around the edge but all in view. I also used the random word generator. Only one significant thing happened and this was when the app said 'feel' I asked it if it could feel the bear and at the same time it said something like 'I can' the bear lit up. This happened right at the start of the investigation and nothing happened aside random words for the rest of the session which ran for approximately 40 minutes. I'm incredibly tempted to buy a ouija board - t

The Old Bell Hotel

Image
The Old Bell Hotel is located within the Cathedral Quarter on Sadler Gate in Derby, England. The location is said to be over 350 years old, and so is Derby's largest and last surviving coaching inn. The location has played host to a number of famous individuals from Bonnie Prince Charlie to Paul McCartney. Having once been a prestigious coaching inn, the location fell to disrepair over the years and closed to the public in 2012. What has been called 'the largest renovation project in history' has since occured, costing a total of £1.3 million, and as a result the Old Bell Hotel is open once more. With such a long history, it is expected for a number of hauntings to be present, and there are a few stories about the haunted happenings here. Two hauntings are thought to revolve around maids who have died within the hotel, and it's said that there is a malevolent soldier present too.  History There are two discussed dates for the year The Old Bell Hotel was cons

Angel's Haunted Houses

Image
In this article, we will be looking at a transcript taken from the fourth episode of 'Haunted Homies'; a web-series created by the 'OVERNIGHT' paranormal investigation team. During this series, the team shares their own paranormal experiences, plus read out the experiences audience members have submitted before then interviewing them. This article will discuss Angel's experience, along with the question and answer segment which follows. Angel's experience touches on parapsychology, but mostly features information about a haunted house she leads tours in.  I've tried transcribing to be as accurate as I can to how things are said, and I've cut out anything which goes off topic. Any cuts are signified by the symbol   (...) and anything I couldn't understand is marked by *inaudible* . This interview was conducted by Elton Castee, Corey Scherer, and Corbin Reinhardt; three members of the OVERNIGHT paranormal investigation team. The purpose of

41 Iron Gate

Image
41 Iron Gate, at the time of writing this known as 'Jorrocks', is located in Derby, England. The name of this location has changed a few times, and so the address of '41 Iron Gate' is what will be used in this article. The hauntings here mostly include accounts of poltergeist activity, although there are two known figures present. The most well known feature of this location, and the suspected cause of the paranormal activity here is a real skull, found beneath the building, which they have on display behind the bar.  History 41 Iron Gate has also been known as 'Jorrocks', 'Lafferty's', and 'The George'. A couple of sources also cite the names 'The George Inn', 'Mr Jorrock's', 'The Globe', 'The Globe Inn', and 'Globe Vaults'. This is one of those locations where very little is known about it, something clearly indicated by the uncertainty around some of these names mentioned as very few

Haunted Homies E3: Corey's Warren Attachment

Image
In this article, I will feature and discuss a transcript of conversation which was taken from towards the end of the third episode of 'Haunted Homies'. In this conversation, a member of the OVERNIGHT team, Corey Scherer, discusses his concerns regarding bringing a spirit to his girlfriend's apartment unintentionally. He has this conversation with two other members of the team: Elton Castee and Corbin Reinhardt. I would class Elton and Corey as the leaders of this paranormal investigation team; which is something important to keep in mind for the conversation.  Corey's Experience/Q&A Corey:  "I'll make this quick, but long story short, especially recently, like, especially since Warren; I have no idea why but my girlfriend's apartment has low-key, I think it's gotten insanely haunted from something I brought back. Like, she texts me almost every other day freaking out saying that she's hearing more noises and doors are opening and stu
