Forest Brewery Tunnels -  Nottinghamshire

   

PICOUK were invited by Notts Paranormal Investigators to join them on an investigation of the cellars of a former brewery

Weather

It had been raining on and off most of the day and it was raining when we arrived, the temperature was mild.

Plan

 

Baseline

After a tour of the location the team split into two groups, armed with EMF meters and infrared thermometers went around taking base line readings. As we were getting a strange EMF reading in the archway in the top chamber an EMF meter was set up to work automatically if any anomalies should be picked up. All through the glass divination session the meter was activated when a question was asked that the spirit we were talking to did not like.

Vigil

Location 3 on the plan above: -

All light sources were extinguished and the group sat quietly in the dark to see if anything would happen. It was not long before some of the group could here what seemed to be footsteps coming from the next cellar, when I asked if it was a spirit the noise stopped. Several members of the group saw movement and or shadows in the main entrance area and were aware of someone or something walking up and down the middle of the cellar we were in. Although further signs were asked for nothing conclusive occurred and as we were all getting tired we decided to pack up our equipment and call it a night.
