For years, Merchistoun Hall has stood between Horndean and Waterlooville and dominated the myths and legends of the area; but what is behind all the rumours regarding this location. From a mysterious grey lady, to the returning admiral to finally a drowning at the lake, the historical tapestry of the location is complex.

This event will only be open to small group investigating the paranormal activity inside the Hall and you will be taking part in an ongoing research project to explore the history of Merchistoun. Whether you consider you are an experienced investigator or are just interested in the history of this great location we will be putting the legends of this great building to the test…

Join Dark Encounters as just a small group investigates the hall for Paranormal Activity.
