The Grand Grimoire

Image
The Grand Grimoire is a historical text shrouded in mystery with varying claims about both it's origins and authorship. Some claim this book to be written based on the writings of the biblical King Solomon, and to have been found in his tomb, while others have speculated it was written by Pope Honorius III. What we know for sure is that after this book was published in France, it spread to colonies the country held at the time. It also gained the attention of particular figures involved in the occult, such as numerous members of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn; a British group in which Aleister Crowley, famously dubbed 'the wickedest man in the world', was a member.

The Old Hall Hotel

The Old Hall is said to have become a coaching inn and later a hotel. The building did close during 2005, but was then saved by local people.

Aside this spirit, it's said there are numerous children, an old woman in a rocking chair, and possibly the owner from the 1600s present. It...

Rhiannon's Family Encounters

In this article, we will be looking at an experience I've transcribed which was shared by an audience member for OVERNIGHT's web-series 'Haunted Homies'. OVERNIGHT is a paranormal investigation team based in America, and they upload their investigations to YouTube. During their 'Haunted Homies' series, they discuss the paranormal to an audience, and they read out experiences which the audience members have submitted to them prior to the event. Once the experience is read out, the team invites the person the experience belongs to on stage, and then the person is questioned about the experience by the OVERNIGHT team.  This particular experience was shared by Rhiannon. As the Q&A segment progressed, her dad, called Tyler, becomes more and more involved. To begin with, he is sat in the audience answering questions but eventually he is invited to join his daughter on the stage. I have tried my best to transcribe the experience and the interview word f...
