An unpublished photograph from our files.
This photo was taken during our first visit to Hellfire Caves, Buckinghamshire, in 2007. At the time, it seemed like little more than a routine reference photograph. Looking back, it's fair to say It became part of a much bigger story.

Sometimes, you visit a location and you 'feel' the fingerprints of someone that shouldn't be there.
Well, after a year of two of research, we've finally found the trail of breadcrumbs left behind.

Today marks 11 years since Laura and I revisited Orford Castle in Suffolk.
Although we'd both been there previously, neither of us expected that day's visit to lead to a series of discoveries, follow-up investigations, and even an unexpected response from English Heritage.

Delighted to share my recent interview with Jimmy from Spooky Appalachia
What began as a single reported Mothman sighting to Jimmy a couple of years ago, in a small Essex Village, has evolved into one of the most fascinating research projects we've ever undertaken.

An historical source reported an evil spirit had been exorcised at Chilton, near Sudbury and, imprisoned within a bottle before being thrown into a pond behind the village church.
Over 160 years later, there was just one problem.
Nobody seemed to know where the pond had actually been.

Moments before this photo was taken inside the upper level of Landguard Fort, Laura entered the adjoining bathroom of Fire Officers’ Quarters F7 & was immediately told, very loudly, to “Fuck off” by what she described as a male voice.

I saw this beginning to trend earlier today, so thought I'd give it a try - asking AI to write an unhinged unbio, just for fun.
Laura believes she doesn't have enough online presence for one.
I did one for her anyway and, a dual one, for us both.
I was expecting far worse, I was disappointed.

Somewhere in rural Essex, a quiet riverside village has become the centre of deeply unsettling reports dating back over 30 years.
What began as a simple referral would ultimately draw us into one of the strangest investigations we have undertaken. More soon.

A couple of years ago we found ourselves on a journey, which (so far) culminated at this Church.
Here Laura surveys the building and, although we found the church to be locked on this occasion, she'd already 'found' where our target in the church lay. We shall be back.

The 12th Century west front of Castle Acre Priory, Norfolk.
Although, sadly, the heat experienced on the day we visited affected things greatly, two decades ago I was fortunate to be part of two private investigations at the location.

Laid in 1928 for the Rev Lawrence Washington, the great great Grandfather of George Washington, the first President of the United States of America, who rests nearby in the church yard.

Although we didn't come away with much, such a fantastic, historical location, where many luminaries have passed through, some, I'm sure, you'd rather not have met.
We'll be back. Some day.

Whilst we're relatively happy with the comparative charm of being marketed hauntings rather than hedge fund bets, is anyone else experiencing this?
