Margam Castle - 12th of June 2010.

Margam Castle is the most impressive location Compass Paranormal Events have investigated. It is nestled within a
dramatic backdrop, dark dense woods are to the rear of the Castle and beautiful ornate landscape gardens decorate
the front of the building enhancing the ambience of this truly striking piece of Gothic architecture, which after many
years of disrepair is now being restored.

This was Compass Paranormal Events first ever visit to this magnificent Castle. All The team and our guests were
truly amazed to be able to spend the night investigating this location and all of the rooms and corridors, of this once
most splendid family home, steeped in mystery and intrigue. The Castle is staffed 24 hours a day most of whom have
bore witness to some truly terrifying ghostly encounters and our guide for the Castle had his own stories to tell which
he shared with us at the end of a truly amazing evening. This enhancing our own Paranormal experiences of the night.

As daylight faded and the evening shadows began to cast the Castle into darkness, the location became even more dramatic. The woods resonated their eerie noises of the night, the Castle now framed by the evening sky where the resident bats of the Castles towers flew around enhancing the dramatic atmosphere of the location, making one feel as though they were in a scene from a Scary film, enhancing the reported fact that the Castle and surrounding grounds is a haven of Psychic Energy.

The scene was now set for our ghostly vigils, and the team and quests were certainly not disappointed by their endeavours to communicate with the many spirits who still roam this majestic Castle.

The phenomena we experienced during the night certainly left all who witnessed the activity without a rational explanation of the night’s events. Both our mediums Barrie John and Roy Roberts amazed the guests and the staff with their accurate details of the ancestors and inhabitants who once resided in the Castle. These accounts are known only to a select few and never before had they been picked up on by various mediums who had previously visited the Castle.

Watch this short video we recorded on the night to witness one vigil and the spine chilling events.

The volume of Paranormal activity we witnessed on this Summer Evening will be a night for all who attended, one never to be forgotten.

Dare you join us on our return to Margam Castle 1st October 2010.

WOODCHESTER MANSION - 19th June 2010.

The approach to the mansion is a long winding drive on a very narrow track encased by dense woods on either side
adding to the suspense as to what lies at the end. One is certainly not disappointed at the truly magnificent Gothic
Mansion once it comes into sight.

As the guests and team stepped in through the front door we found ourselves suddenly transported back to the
late 1800’s, standing amidst what is effectively a Victorian building site. We were astounded by the amazing site of
fireplaces suspended in mid air, doorways leading nowhere and the strange undulating floor which is in fact the
vaulted ceiling of the cellar below, your sense being heightened as to why it is that the mansion was never finished.
All this enhanced by the colony of resident Bats which freely fly around the inside and outside this Gothic mansion.
Thus giving our medium Barrie John a fright on entering one of the upstairs rooms.

Paranormal activity reported by the guests on this truly amazing event , a dog growling in the dark gloomy corridor’s of the cellar. Mysterious male voices, in the upstairs corridor. Guests clothing being tugged. Ghostly shadows, outside the rooms in which we were doing our vigils as if a strange unknown foreboding presence was watching .

The most unexplained phenomena witnessed that night was in the dining room where all the team and guests had gathered for a vigil with Barrie John. A dramatic temperature drop of ten degrees in twenty minutes was shown by our two digital thermometers placed on the floor at either ends of the room. Which left us all shaking not with both cold and fear on this warm June evening. The entire evening has left us eager to investigate this Gothic mansion again on the 18th September 2010.

GALLERIES OF JUSTICE - 26th June 2010.

The Galleries of Justice has a long history of powerful emotions - anger, despair, betrayal, hopelessness, terrible
suffering and, of course, executions. It is not surprising that this rich atmosphere should have left its mark, so that the
buildings today abound with reported ghostly encounters.

The Galleries of Justice Museum is based at Nottingham’s Grade II* listed Shire Hall in the heart of the city’s historic
Lace Market. There has been a court on the site since at least 1375 and a prison since at least 1449, although recent
investigation has unearthed what appears to be a much older dungeon that has been sealed for 100’s of years.
