... Head over to Haunted UK for a review of the general history and haunted history of the Schooner Hotel. Alternatively, use the table of contents to view the reports for each location.

Room 28

Room 28 (along with 29 and 30) where situated in their own small little area at the very top of the main staircase of the hotel.

The rooms themselves consisted of two beds, one a double and one a single. There was a large wooden wardrobe and an adjacent bathroom. All the rooms were very similar in design.

Walkaround With Guest Medium - Fay Wright

Fay spoke of the entire area when she did conducted her walkaround in this room and considered Rooms 28, 29, 30 and the small corridor between them as one location.

Imeediately upon entering this area, Fay felt drawn to Room 28. She could pick up on the energy of a lady who had a very strong personality in life. Fay got the impression that this lady was 'in charge' - possibly the head of the staff who had worked in The Schooner previously.

She kept getting the feeling of the lady coming into Room 28 and then coming out to the corridor outside and moving along to the other rooms. She felt that as this spirit moved, sparks of energy would be seen in her wake by people. As Fay moved from room 28 the feeling of this lady faded but was still present, but it seemed she was more associated with room 28.

Fay also picked up on the spirit of Jack who appeared to have something wrong with his eye. Fay described him as being 'a bit creepy' and claimed that he was associated as what she described as 'back door activities' within the hotel. She also got an association with a ship which Jack was linked to with possibly the ships name linked to 'Anne'.

Other than the fading energy that Fay sensed emanating from room 28 - she picked up little in the rooms 29 and 30.

Group 1 Report : Dave Sue Pam Jay Joan Linda

We spent our time in Room 28 sitting on beds calling out and observing the night vision camera that had been set up in here which did pick up on a number of orbs, but of course, these could have just been dust.

Joan and Linda, sitting on the double bed next to each other, both reported a coldness around their lower legs and Pam claimed that a couple of spirits had entered the room and moved towards where they were both sitting. She picked up on a Henry and William and felt that Henry had been responsible for a heineous crime of murder.

We were joined in this location by Sue and Fay who were moving around the hotel and we decided to conduct a small seance in the room.

Fay attempted to convince Jack, who she had picked up on her walkaround, to come and communicate with us but at first he appeared to be reluctant. It was only when Jay began to ask him about his activities at the 'back door' of the hotel that things began to happen. When asked whether Jack was involved in those activities, Fay reported that Jack had told her it was none of our business but when Jay pressed and said he wasn't in trouble 'just make a noise to at least acknowledge it' there was a distinct double tap in the room. When asked for him to confirm that was him, the tapping happened again.

Further instances of the tapping occurred in relation to questions posed to Jack. Fay also reported seeing red sparks of energy in the room, although she admitted she may have been seeing these clairvoyantly.

Group 2 Report : Paul Bruce Mike Rachel Dale Dianne

We again felt that this location was extremely quiet and devoid of any apparent activity. We attempted to call out to any spirits who may have been present and got no response whatsoever, not even a maybe.

We were hoping that something would happen in the next couple of locations.

Group 3 Report : Sharon Karl Kris Andrea

It was time to move onto our next location. As soon as we entered into room 28 we sat on the beds and turned the light off.

We sat quiet for a little while. We felt the bathroom was a bit eerie so we took turns in sitting in there for a little while. Some of us while in the bathroom were overcome with a headache and a few taps were heard.

Then while Sharon and Carl were sitting on one of the beds, Sharon said how her legs and feet felt hot all of a sudden.

Kris went over and took a temperature reading and also the Emf gave a reading of 2.5mg, the Temperature was increasing and within 3-4 minutes the temperature dropped and the Emf Stopped. We found this a bit weird. This room did feel a bit errie.

Group 4 Report : Danny Shiela Denise Michael Georgina Claire

Room 28 seemed quiet at first with not a lot of activity recorded. One of the guests in this group was sensitive to the spirit and some things of note were sensed. A woman being dragged by here hair ? the feeling that she was a victim of domestic violence could be felt.

Some group members didn't feel comfortable in the room and felt very uneasy when sat near the bathroom door. When a couple of the group entered the bathroom they sensed someone touching them and when the rest of the group followed them into the bathroom, there was a dramatic drop in temperature.

Near to the beds the sensation of a man could be felt and a sense that we were not wanted in the room could be felt. Danny felt as if he had been hit round the head ? similar to when you get a severe headache. Whilst this was happening, Fay ? who had joined us - could sense a mist around Dannys legs and then Danny began to report an uncomfortable feeling in his feet.
