Recently my wife, sister in law and I went on a 'ghost hunt' at Charlton House, London. Now before I get started I should add that I am 50/50 when it comes to the paranormal. I want to believe and some things I know are unexplained. But I want to see it for myself to know that it is real. My missus on the other hand was almost 100% sceptic.
Anyway, the evening started with a big vigil before we broke off into smaller groups. There were five in my sub group. We started with a Ouija board in the attic and got no activity at all. So we moved into a room directly below the attic.
We set the board up on a large wooden table. I pulled the heavy curtains. Now the one thing I didn't tell anyone whilst in this room was that as soon as we walked in I got a really heavy, oppressive feeling on me. It was like a real heavy pressure on my shoulders. It was like I was invading on someones privacy and they were telling me I shouldn't be in that room.
The room itself was being renovated and there were builders bits and pieces lying around. The table had clearly been moved back from its original spot in the room. Anyway, we got the tumbler moving really slowly. It was gradually moving towards goodbye after the first question which was is there anyone in the room with us. So I asked for whoever was with us to give us a sign to show they are there. What happened next will stay with me for a long time....there was an almighty crash come from under the table. It was like someone had gone under the table and thumped it with all their strength from below. The items on the table went flying and the table collapsed. All five of us were in bits. My wife and sister in law screamed out.
We left the room straight after this. I went back into the same room an hour later to take some pictures and I did not get that same oppressive feeling.
Later that night I went into the library area to take some pictures and captured something I can not explain. I was at one end of the room. There was no one at the other end. The room was in complete darkness so I could not see anything other than through the flash on my camera. So I started to snap away.
I captured a white mist like figure move along the opposite end of the room. To me it looks like an old fashioned ladies dress. The weird thing was at the same time I asked for a sign by tapping on the piano at that and of the room and I got the response I asked for.
After a five hour event I left with more questions than answers. I am still 50/50 as I want to try and find answers for what I experienced but I am leaving an open mind.
