Location: Michelham Priory
Ticket Price: £49
This is your chance to explore by torchlight a building that has 800 years of history. With a range of experiments designed to document the activity reported at the location you get the chance to experience your very own ghost hunt at the legendary Michelham Priory. With reported paranormal activity ranging from mysterious footsteps from empty rooms, doors opening by their own and shadowy figures disappearing through walls and strange whispered voices, this is a fantastic location to investigate.
We will be looking for correlations of phenomena between the groups and previous investigations we have carried out at the location - all recorded in the Casebook of Dark Encounters from the past twenty years.
Further Information
Join Dark Encounters as we carry out a comprehensive paranormal investigation of the site. You will get to investigate for yourselves; setting up experiments, carrying out the experiments and record your observations. So, whether it is a lone vigil in a evacuee’s bedroom, EVP experiments in one of the Abbot’s Room, or Dowsing experiments in the Old Kitchen you will be in the heart of the action. At the beginning of your evening you will have a briefing on ghost hunting techniques and the plan for the evening. Then you will split into smaller groups to carry out the investigation. The teams will be led by experience investigators who will guide you to the correct areas and how to set up the experiments. There will be regular refreshment breaks and then at the end of the evening all teams will have a debriefing as we report the evidence recorded.
