PRIVATE INVESTIGATION

Saturday 1st December, 2007
Private residence near Canterbury.

The members of the group Denise, Michelle, Joan, Wendy and Brian
arrived at the property around 6.30pm and were kindly given a tour of
the property by it's owners.
The investigation was to be carried out with all members being open to
Spirit, with Denise taking notes of the evening and acting as Watcher.
Straight away impressions of residual energy were picked up by all,
peeling away layers in the properties history.

WENDY - sensed a young girl standing by the staircase, beckoning, as
if to whisper with her finger in front of her lips.
MICHELLE - sensed a woman standing by the backdoor.
Brian - sensed that there was a Parson in the lounge, taking part at a
meeting of about 8 men around a table,
probably from the Jacobean era, late 1600's.
Michelle - suggested that the house was used as a place of safety to
hide.

And this was before the investigation even started!
We believe the young girl and woman that Wendy and Michelle picked up
on was Spirit activity, and that the Parson was probably residual.

Before beginning the investigation, the group linked into circle for
protection for themselves and the property.

LOUNGE 7.10pm
All sitting, Brian on chair by hall, Wendy on chair next to Christmas
tree, Michelle and Joan on sofa, Denise on floor next to sofa.
BRIAN - This was a catholic household, that held secret meetings
(relating to the Jacobean period).
WENDY - Possibly there was a priesthole in the attic.
BRIAN - There was also a priesthole, or place to hide in the lounge
fireplace to the right and up. There would have been wooden floorboards
in this room, with a rush carpet and a big table in the middle.
MICHELLE - Decisions were made at these meetings.

MICHELLE - There is a man in the hall, from about the 1970's wearing a

blue sash under the breast, probably from the Georgian/Regency period.
JOAN - In the kitchen there is a lady, wearing a long skirt, from the
1940's - 50's.
We believe this could be the same lady that was sensed by Michelle
the the back door. The name Emily comes through.

BRIAN - felt cold air behind him, and that it was a female energy.
Denise - someone playing with her hair.
WENDY - felt as if the staircase had been altered. The beam over the
beginning of the staircase was not original and that there would have
been a doorway leading to the stairs. The temperature around this area
dropped and in the lounge also.
As Denise and Wendy started to walk upstairs JOAN felt a lady walk
into the lounge and sit on the sofa next to her.

CLOSE DOWN 11.30pm
The team linked and the evening's activity was closed down and
cleansed.

CONCLUSION
It was agreed by all team members that the house carried both a lot of
residual energy and spirit activity.
It is our belief that the spirits are that of the young girl Sarah,
the homely lady in the kitchen and dining room, the old, smelly man in
the dining room and the lady on the staircase. There may be a couple of
others. None of these spirits are earthbound and freely visit the house
and return to the spirit world of the own accord. We do not feel that
any spirit is trapped within the house, and that all visiting spirits
are benevolent.
