ghost hunt at the britannia scarborough haunted

BACK TO HOMEPAGE —— BACK TO INVESTIGATIONS

After such a good night on our previous investigation a few months ago, we all decided it would be nice to go back for a follow up invest. Present from AGH were Angie, Mark, Jazz, Tracey, Mike and Andy along with Pam our historian, we were also joined by landlady Lauren and her husband Tom.

01:00hrs The investigation started at 1am by the time everyone had gone and it the pub had been tidied up. Due to the amount of audible activity last time and how many times team members saw things we spent the first hour just setting cameras and voice recorders up in every possible position there was.

02.00hrs We then sat for an half hour watching and observing different areas of the pub, the team had set themselves up in good positions so all areas where visible to at least two members of the team. Angie tells us Elizabeth is present again, and then says this pub had a different name, Pam tells us the pub was once called the Queens Head but then the street was not called Eastborough but was part of Merchants row a few hundred yards up the road.

02:30hrs Things were about to finally start, Andy and Mike who where situated nearest the toilets heard footsteps going towards the female toilet. Pam who was sat adjacent to the stairs that led there also heard the footsteps. They all said the sounds were very clear to them and not faint. At the same time Angie commented that little Tom was around. (Tom was a little boy we discovered on the previous investigation, When Angie saw him last time she described him as having coal on his face as he was a chimney sweep). Within seconds Andy saw a small figure head up the next flight of stairs from the toilets to the owners flat. Angie asked Lauren has anyone ever experienced anything in the ladies toilet as she saw a figure move past the window in the door, Lauren says yes and a good few times too. So Angie headed in there to see if she could pick up on anything in there, Mark and Jazz both followed her. Whilst in there she became aware of a presence stood near the sink but was unable to get anymore with this, Mark went and stood by the sink to see if he could feel the presence but said he did not. Angie upon leaving the toilets saw something go down the stairs from the pool table area to the main bar, as she said this Pam also said she saw something go in that direction. She also caught a quick glimpse of someone by the males toilets as she turned to us to tell us what she seen, Andy went to the corridor to take some photos but nothing has appeared on them.
We all went and stood by the pool table and Angie said there was a man present called Les and he just wanted everyone to know he does not like the changes and preferred it when the door was in the corner where the stage is now. We were then told by Tom that the door was originally where the stage is and not in the opposite corner as it is now. He walked off to where the original door was and left. Pam saw an outline of a figure moving in that direction too. It was if he left through the original door as some sort of confirmation that that was where the door was.
03.00hrs. Andy, Mike and Jazz all went down to the cellar curious as to if they may feel what we got there last time. When they were down there both Angie and Pam could hear a little boys voice coming from near the stage area. Mark, Angie and Tracey all went over to the stage area as they did all three heard a voice but no one could make out what was said. On watching the footage a voice can be heard calling out what sounds like Tom, we are not sure if it was little Tom telling us his name or if it was someone calling to the landlord who is also named Tom!.

Moments later Angie picks up on a Bill and a Bob both regulars who come in and leave just as quick, then Brian enters and Angie mentions a boat called the Rosalyn or Rosalin that they he worked on. The landlord Tom tells us there was a boat by that name in the town but was scrapped about 35years ago, Angie not being from around here originally would not have known that. She then surprises us by saying whilst she said the name of the boat she heard a mans voice say to hear I thought you was going to say Rosita she was a Landlady you know. On checking the census for the pub we found that that is true, one former Landlady was called Rosita.
For the remaining period not much happened other than sporadic sightings around the pub, and at 04:00hrs we decided to call it a night.

04.00hrs. The investigation came to an end.

Final Thought: The Britannia was a very interesting place, we did not have much time to investigate but we were glad we went back for a follow up, which we believe was worthwhile.
