The church building was used as an auxiliary hospital during the First World War by the Joint War Committee (British Red Cross and the Order of St John of Jerusalem). The committee was ordered to raise and organise Voluntary Aid Detachments trained in First Aid and Nursing. The nurses were a mixture of qualified nurses and volunteers. The theatre was known as the Social Centre, it was run by the 11th Durham VA Hospital Unit. Mrs Elizabeth Rogers received the Royal Red Cross 2nd Class honour for service to this hospital. During the second a bomb fell outside only to bounce over the building before exploding, leaving the building untouched. It is still used as a working theatre to this day.

9pm - 9am
Tickets £60pp - deposit option available
History: In 1966 Jean, Joe , Philip and Diane moved into what was soon to become the most haunted house in England, 30 East Drive. What started as unexplainable dust failing from the ceiling, pools of water appearing on the kitchen floor and photographs being slashed in front of their eyes , an unknown force began a reign of terror what would last for several years and ended up in violence. Exorcisms did little to deter the poltergeist that terrorised this family who the local press dubbed “Mr Nobody” . Walls would seep holy water, faces were slapped and soon Diane , who would become the focus of the haunting, was pulled up stairs kicking and screaming in an attack so disturbing that it left visible finger marks on her throat.
Ghosts: Dubbed “Mr Nobody” by the press but more commonly known as Fred. The spirit of Joe, the dad, has also been seen on the landing near where he was found dead.

Tickets £59pp
History: Bron Y Garth was originally built as the Ffestiniog union workhouse in 1838 with later additions built up to 1896 with a further extension built in 1991 by the hospital. In 1894 it was investigated by the British Medical Journal who were shocked at what they discovered. It was only staffed by a Matron and Master who had to govern the house, nurse the sick , overlook the able bodied, care for the children, admit the tramps. The sick were not separated and housed in cramped quarters. There was also a lack of general toilet and washing facilities. In 1902 part of the workhouse was adapted for adults with ‘mental deficients’. The council took it over in 1930 and renamed it a Public Assistance Institution. It was then taken over by the NHS as a Hospital in 1948 and closed in 2009.

Jedburgh Castle Jail - Scottish Boarders
September date coming soon
2024
Ghost Hunt - 9.15pm - 1.30am
Tickets £45pp
History: Site of 12th-century castle was one of the strongholds handed over to the English after the Treaty of Falaise to release William the Lyon from captivity, but it was recovered by the Scots. Malcolm the Maiden died here in 1165. Alexander III was married at the castle in 1285, but a ghostly apparition warned of his impending death – which came true when Alexander fell, with his horse, from a cliff at Kinghorn. The castle was occupied by the English after the Battle of Neville’s Cross in 1346 until 1409, when it was retaken by the Scots and demolished, the work paid for by the Crown. A jail was erected on the site of the old castle in 1823, a Howard reform prison, and the only type of its kind now remaining in Scotland. The prison closed in 1880. Jedburgh Castle Jail is now a museum, with a fascinating display of exhibits relating to 19th-century prison life.
Ghosts: One of the ghost of Jedburgh Jail is Edwin McArthur, a prisoner who was executed here in 1855 who wonders the corridor of the derelict men’s wing intimidating people. Children’s voices have been heard on equipment asking for help and a heavy cell door slamming shut in front of our guests by unseen hands. A glow ball caught rolling into and out of one of the cells was caught on our cctv by itself. This is not for the faint hearted.
