| CAREW TIDAL MILL 6.10.06 We arrived at Carew bringing with us showers, high winds and unusually high tides; it was a typical Autumnal night fairly chilly 12c and a waxing moon, which lit up the night sky admirably. We were eager to start the investigation and divided into two teams with battery trouble from the start we wondered what would transpire through the evening. We apologise in advance for the asterisked swear words, it is our policy not to swear whilst on investigations but it has been decided to include them in the report due to the uncharacteristic use of these words from our team. 9.45pm Top Floor Peter’s team. We all feel like we are being watched, we try to stand with our backs to something as it feels ‘safer’ we are very nervous, (yet had felt fine before hand). There is a very large spirit man making him self known to Jeannette, he would have been like an overseer , he is strong in energy but Jeannette’s guides tell her he is of no threat just strong. A young woman Nancy shows herself the year 1585 – 1598, she was illiterate. She acts a lot older than her tender years of 14. She tells us she worked here but is suddenly pushed out of the way and is blocked from talking to us. A tall man comes through he places Jeannette’s hands around her neck, not tightly but Jeannette can not physically remove them, he tells/shows us that when he punished the women for not working properly he had great delight in holding them round the neck forcing them backwards, he now does this to Jeannette, and would lean them out of the windows, sometimes he would rape them as well. The name of Mathias is given. Jeannette although in a compromising position is able to talk quite easily and her body temperature fluctuates any where from 12c – 28c as the man talks and shows her what he done. Mathias tells Jeannette she reminds him of Rose, he lets her go with an apology. Helen standing near a grain chute feels that a young boy of 4/5 years was stuck in the chute and passed by being suffocated when after he had been sent down to clear a blockage someone let more grain in, never realising that the poor lad was in the chute. He had blonde/fair hair name of Michael and the year has to be early to late 1600’s as more than three people all said a variant of the 1600’s. Near the hearse. The name of John Edward Humphries is given and he tells how he was mistakenly buried alive, he rang the bell to alert people but no one came and he suffocated. He was a large portly man of some substance it is felt, and he is a bit annoyed that they never placed his wig on him when they buried him. The Georgian era is given. Natasha is having difficulty breathing and has a tight chest, picking up on the man’s conditions. There is darkness next to where Jeannette is standing and we are all surprised when Peter turns round and quite firmly says "step back" to what looks like air …. He has been feeling very cold and could feel a spirit energy drawing close and didn’t like what he felt. Tea Break and the whole group unite to return to the hearse area 10.40pm Top Floor again. Helen has the shivers, normally a very placid calm investigator she really does not like the top floor. Jeannette is told, “If you want to play then let’s play” Kerry feels sick. Standing by the hearse again, Lee is very quiet, Jeannette gets the impression of men and women standing around the cart but they are not from the era of the hearse nor are they dressed in Georgian/Victorian clothes. They show themselves in white bonnets with simple gowns of mainly green, the men are dressed in black knicker bocker type leggings with black coats and wide rimmed black hats. All are simply dressed and standing in a circle. The gentleman from earlier pops in to tell us his wife passed the same time as him her name is Elizabeth. Helen wondered if the ringing of the bell was ignored because if they had money it could have been divided out between relatives…. A good thought. Jeannette asks Lee if he is okay as he is standing very quietly not moving at all. Lee says his ears have been blocked as if someone has placed their hands over them so he can not hear. He is angry and wants to lash out he says he is p***** off, his face and shape seem to be changing and you can feel he is not a happy person. The feeling passes to Jeannette who feels as if she and Lee should be in a bare knuckle fight, Lee feels let down and still has an overwhelming urge to shout. He has so much pent up anger. Peter now feels sensations similar and we decide to move out of the area. We go to the other side of the room where earlier Jeannette was shown what a man did to the women; this has not been disclosed to the other team. Lee still feels as if he is in a world of his own, his ears are still blocked. He sees a goat but has no idea why. He can not focus because he is angry. Orbs are caught on Lee, Jeannette and Peter. Lee has the sensation of a hanging, he feels a tightness around his throat, the same as Jeannette had earlier. His feet are off the ground, but he is not sure if it is a hanging as does not feel correct. Jan and Jeannette feel he is being shown the same conditions as Jeannette had earlier. Lee now has pins and needles all over his face and head and still has an overwhelming urge to shout. He can hear footsteps on the staircase. We decide to try a séance. 11.00pm Séance Protection is placed around everyone and Jeannette calls out to spirit. Lee is aching all over, something is making him feel that he needs to leave the circle. Jeannette and Martin feel a cold draft and Jeannette has a headache. Lee shouts out “have some f****** respect” as a spirit man impress’s himself upon Lee. The man is related to the hearse, a short man, sporting a black beard, wearing a tall black hat, dickey bow and black trousers and jacket with a white shirt. He is an undertaker. The era 1735 Martin’s right hand is very cold to touch, the temperature is 25c his left is 28c Kerry takes a photo and an orb is captured on his colder hand. Lee feels like he has been sitting for hours all his joints ache. A loud bang is heard right behind Jeannette, someone is again blocking Lee, they don’t want to be found out. Lee hears horse's hooves outside. The boy Michael is here and tickling Lee’s, Jeannette and Helen’s noses. Natasha has a stabbing pain in her side. We close the séance and go to the second floor. 11.30pm Kerry does not feel sick here but now has a headache. Lee calls out to spirit, the chain that travels down from the floor above moves. Jeannette and Lee can not feel any spirit here, but a little while later Jeannette who has been gazing on and off out off the window watching ships travel towards the mill (there are no ships), feels totally drained of energy and is unable to walk, she is very upset and tells everyone to go away. It is decided to have a break and Jeannette asks the spirit to move away and is able to gather herself. Tea break 12.am 12.25am Jan, Jeannette, Tasha, Helen & Pete go back to the hearse area. Helen calls out, Peter says he is b***** cold. Helen asks if they want us here and we are told “no we f****** don’t” a loud click is heard behind Helen cobwebs are felt by Jeannette. Poor Tasha has to put her hood up as if to hide! Spirit are here watching but not talking. Although it is dark up here everyone comments on how much darker it is suddenly getting. Tasha’s head feels really heavy and Jeannette is suddenly bent backwards as the male energy from earlier comes back. Peter steps behind her a) to prevent her from falling and b) to stop the energy from becoming to strong. He is amazed at the energy he feels, the coldness and of a squeezing sensation and lots of pressure around him. Jeannette is pushed over backwards further, and the man tells her “he is hiding the secrets of what went on and will block other spirits coming through”. Jeannette stands upright as the man tries to place his hands over her body, she tells him where to go! Jan and Jeannette both hear a loud click. We go down to the lower floor and whilst leaning over the barrier just talking generally the name Alice Roberts comes in but any other information is blocked. The nursery rhyme Simple Simon is heard but sang in a very sneery voice. It is a woman’s voice, she is seen by the medium as very small under 4’10 and has very pointed features aged about 22. She says they are fed up with the accusations, downright lies and atrocities that are being done. !1300’ s seem to be the era, she says they were simple herbalists, Madeleine is her name, she is angry but not with us. There are two of them here at the moment who lived in the same house together not far from the mill as it stands now, they would come down to the sea to collect a type of seaweed/plant for their medicines. She interacts with today’ s world and likes to visit the mill to see what is happening. They don’t cause trouble. She asks if we knew that the water had been diverted to either accommodate the village, or access to the village.. She had a sickness of the stomach and died by her own hand, she poisoned herself. She knew she would not live for long. She suffered severe back pains and headaches; she had a tumour in the stomach. (Natasha wondered if it could have been something to do with her appendix), she came to help others and now is angry because people are saying they are evil. This is nonsense and her friend Margaret agrees with her, Margaret a gentle soul tells us she passed with old age aged 38. They used to share the house and keep poultry. They are good friends. They love to help people and give Jeannette some herbal advice for her stomach. Their cat would have been seen here,mainly by the reception area. A mean black tom cat with one white front paw. Madeline tells Jeannette that the heavy pressure/energy felt upstairs is no threat he is all talk and no action. This is a nice place to be. She says heavy footsteps are heard all round the building this would be him. She says goodbye and tells us it was nice to meet us. A nice end to our investigation. Helen’s Team. 9.40pm ground floor. Poor Lee was well and truly blocked, he picks up on residual energy of an accident where a man has his arm stuck in the cogs, surname of Jeffries is given and he would have passed from this accident due to a loss of blood. The age of 42 is given. Lee has the feeling it occurred over the large cogs where the water is flowing beneath. Other than the information he received upstairs when both teams joined together he was closed for the night. Helen at 11.40pm joins Lee’s team and also picks up on the accident that Lee had spoken about earlier, (she had no prior knowledge) she also pin points the exact same place. Third floor emergency exit stairs, Lots of orbs picked up on camcorder but no information. The evening close about 2am, this is an amazing building and we would recommend a visit, you can visit the castle and the mill in one day and at a very reasonable price too. We could hear many different noises in the building but with high winds and the sound of water it was difficult to distinguish most of them. We thank the trust for allowing us access to this lovely place. |
