Ghosthunters investigate Coventry
January 13, 2009
SPOOKY goings on will be investigated at a historic Coventry building on Saturday.
A team of ghosthunters are preparing to spend the night in and around St Mary’s Guildhall in Bayley Lane.
Paranormal Tours has organised a visit in which 24 members of the public join mediums and experienced paranormal investigators.
Organiser Andrew Marsey believes the guildhall will be perfect for ghost hunting.
He said: “We do lots of research on different places up and down the country and look at a range of different places.
“We’ve seen a photograph of what appears to be a knight sitting at a banquet and there have been other reports too.
“People have reported there being a monk in the under croft and people have also said they have felt a strange strangling sensation.
“In the Draper’s Room people have felt very sad and had a feeling they are being watched.”
Mr Marsey said the tour – which cost £89 a head - had aroused a lot of interest in Coventry.
He said: “We sold out within three weeks of the tickets going on sale.
“It probably shows that Coventry people are very inquisitive.
“There used to be a real taboo about paranormal investigations but people are a lot more open minded about it now.”
During Friday’s event the ghosthunters will be using a variety of equipment to investigate including thermometers, motion detectors, and devices to record electronic voice phenomena.
