About Me

My photo
Behind Every Cloud is a Kindred Spirit (BECKS)I lost my grandfather when I was 17. I had a VERY difficult time getting over it. How could I still communicate with him? I loved him so much I didn't think I could live without him. I read everything I could get my hands on to do with the "afterlife" and that started it all...the love of Ghost Hunting and the Paranormal. I have been researching the paranormal for over 37 years!! It is my way of staying in touch with my grandfather. Being a Ghost Hunter is not always as exciting as it seems on TV. Many nights I have sat in the dark and not a thing happened. BUT it is those times you DO get that one voice, that one explainable picture or have an experience that sends chills down your back that makes it sooo worth it all!!! My purpose of this blog is not to make people believe in ghosts but maybe to open their minds just a little bit... I LOVE this crazy thing called Ghost Hunting. It is as much a part of me as breathing. I am just a girl that refuses to accept we can't still contact our loved ones after they die. My grandfather won't let me.

Borley Rectory-OMG!!!!!






So, this is the Borley Rectory in  England, also known as The most haunted house in England.
I am taking a self-study course through American Ghost Society and I am studying for certification by them, but in the study guide they talk about the first real paranormal researcher Henry Price.  Henry Price studied the Borley Rectory which just has tons of paranormal activity.  Even today.

There are all sorts of things going on like, bricks being thrown, writings on the walls, ghostly footsteps, unexplained knocks, and so much more.  There are cool pics of this place and of spirits that have been seen there.

The most popular story to the background of Borley was that in 1362 Benedictine Monks built a monastery on the site which would later hold the rectory. Legend told of a nun from the Bures convent, 7 miles southeast of Borley falling in love with a monk from the monastery. They had decided to elope to be together, but the elders discovered their plans. A friend of the monk was to drive a carriage to help them escape. On the fateful night they were captured by the elders. The coachman was beheaded, the monk hanged and the nun was bricked up alive in the walls of the vaults beneath the rectory. Their ghosts have haunted the site ever since.

If you have not read about this place, you should!  It is very interesting.  I have posted a couple of links that you can look at.  There is so much about this place, it would be much to much to write about.
