Possession of Noel 4.30am
(NB In no uncertain circumstances try this way of communication. Controlled by an experienced medium, the team felt happy to try this experiment)
Noel goes into trance & immediately connects with a "Malcolm", forty two years of age. He lived in the property 1900’s. His date of birth; 15th Feb 1858 & he died here.
A little girl comes through, she is happy!
During séance, the majority of people participating that night heard whispering voices. Drew distinctly heard "no" or "Noel" directly in his right ear while filming & observing the séance.
Summary
Although this particular investigation was from a diagnostic point of view, The Farriers Arms did prove to have spiritual activity & a good night was enjoyed by all!
A big thank you to liz for her hospitality, kindness & patience.
