Strange Ghost Stories at the Old Sheep\'s Inn - Part 1

If the research about this old inn, situated just outside London, was to be believed, then we were in for a very strange night at this place.

The inn has been a public house since it was first built in the late 18th century. Our research told us that it\'s cellar, split into many rooms, was once used as a holding cell for prisoners as they were brought down to the courthouses in London.

Katherine decided that we should carry out our ghost investigation in this old inn when she found out that a lot of the prisoners held in the cellars never left alive. The current owners of the inn told Katherine about some of the ghost activity that kept them awake at night.

Glasses have being thrown off tables, tables and chairs have been moved in the night, and strange ghostly figures have been seen, but the thing that interested our ghost team the most, were the ghostly screams coming from down in the cellar. The staff at the inn refuse to go down there alone, often don\'t go down there at all in the evenings.

We began out ghost investigation in the bar of the inn. We placed a glass in the middle of the table surrounded by flour. When we would check back later, we would see clearly if it had been moved. Motion detectors were placed in the hallways, particularly between the bar and the cellar, to see if any ghost activity can be detected by the beams.

We brought Annabel in to give us her initial opinions of the inn. Walking into the bar, Annabel felt the residual energy of the past 300 years that still accumulated in the building. She told us of people and noises, the smell of ale, and laughing.

She was finding it very hard to concentrate, and had to stop just as she was about to tell us something that she was feeling. She quickly left to get some fresh air. We had never seen her react this way before and it came as quite shocking for the rest of the team.

After a short break, Annabel returned, and told us that while she had been talking about the energies in the bar, a spirit ghost had whispered in her ear telling her \"Those that will be judged will be done so here.\"

She then saw a visual image of a man being tied up to a pole in the basement and whipped to death. So shocking was the image that Annabel had needed to take five minutes out just to clear her head.

Now that she was back in however the ghostly images had returned. She informed us that the voice she was hearing was from one of the old patrons at the inn. \"Robert\". She told us that when criminals were bought here and held overnight some of the soldiers escorting the prisoners paid Robert to do away with the men so they could lay claim to the prisoners dying on the way down to London. The soldier\'s get paid and they could return home sooner than expected.
