Annabel told us that Robert took great pleasure in beating his prisoners to death and getting rid of the bodies. She asked if we could now go down into cellar, as she wanted to confront this ghostly presence and hopefully cleanse the inn of his evil influence.
The ghost team made their way down to the cellar, when Katherine told us that the temperature had dropped dramatically since coming down here. Annabel claimed that Robert was very angry at us, and was going to make it very clear to us as the night progressed.
When we got into the cellar, I felt something strike the back of my head. As I was telling the rest of the ghost team that it had felt like a hand, somebody else screamed out. They too claimed that they had just been struck by what they also described as a hand.
The ghost was clearly going to make his presence known tonight, so we had to be very careful. Annabel told us that many people had been murdered in the cellar. She felt as though around thirty bodies had died here, and buried in the surrounding area. Just then, a very large bang was heard from another room. We investigated the noise and found that one of the beer barrels had been pushed over.
I decided to call out to the ghost, and asked him to show himself to the rest of the ghost team. As soon as I had spoken, we heard a scream coming from one of the other rooms further into the cellar. We slowly approached the room, and what then happened I will never forget.
Inside the room, Annabel told us that this was the place that Robert carried out his evil job. I slowly entered the room with another member of my team to see what could have made the scream. Although the room was empty, we did hear a shuffle coming from deeper inside the room. As we entered further, we heard Katherine shouting for help. We returned to find Annabel lying on the ground in tears. We tried to lift her up but she appeared to be in some sort of trance. I told the team that this would have to be the end of the investigation, as we needed to get Annabel upstairs and away from this inn.
It was as we were lifting her up and carrying her upstairs, that we heard another scream come from the room that we had just been in. As she heard this, Annabel began to wail that she had to cleanse the building of lingering ghost spirits. I refused and told her the first thing we needed to do was get her upstairs and outside.
We finally got Annabel outside, and I went back into the building to check the glass, which we had left on the table as an experiment. Unfortunately, nothing had been moved, and nothing had set off the motion detectors either. I collected our stuff and got outside with the rest of the ghost team.
We will never know what really happened that night at the inn. Later, Annabel did go back inside, against our wishes, and cleansed the inn of ghost spirits. She won't tell us what had seen that night, and what had made her cry.
I am glad we had gone there, but I'll never visit that place again. |
