PARANORMAL goings on at Woodlands Castle in Ruishton near Taunton are set to be investigated.

Following the success of popular TV programme Most Haunted, Paranormal Tours – which hosts ghost hunts in well known haunted locations - will be holding an event at the castle on October 24.

Event organiser Kerry Marsay said: “The event will start at 7m and last until 2:30am.

“Although staying awake until 2:30am may sound difficult, with a full programme of activities, and the potential for ghostly experiences, there is unlikely to be a dull moment.” During the event, participants are given an introductory workshop and training in the equipment they will use for conducting experiments including meters to measure changes in frequency, thermometers, motion detectors, and devices to record ghostly sounds. All ghost hunters are invited to bring their own digital cameras and night vision equipment to assist them.

In addition to the scientific equipment, the group will be able to speak to the resident historian about the property’s past, plus utilise the services of an experienced medium to communicate with any presence they detect.

Kerry added: “We are really excited and privileged at the prospect of investigating Woodlands Castle.

“Sceptics and believers alike tend to leave our events with far more questions than when they arrive.”

The event is limited to 20 participants. Places cost £69 per person and include all activities, use of equipment and refreshments throughout the night.
