... 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 29

Room 29 (along with 28 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 found Room 29 to be extremely quiet activity-wise although there were a few taps in response to requests that were made.

Pam reported that two of the spirits she picked up upon from Room 28 had followed us - William and Henry - and although she tried to hardest to get some communication with them going, they did not respond in a way that was unmistakeably them.

We found that while we were in both Room 29 and Room 30 that there seemed to be a lot of activity outside of the rooms in the corridor linking 28, 29 and 30 - a lot of creaking floorboards could be heard although nobody was present in the corridor when we checked.

Group 2 Report : Paul Bruce Mike Rachel Dale Dianne

Again, we 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 beginning to think that the rooms on this floor contained no activity at all.

Group 3 Report : Sharon Karl Kris Andrea

Andie had been to the Schooner Hotel last year when NGI came for our very 1st formal investigation. She told Kris, Carl and Sharon about the floor being wet after a vigil but that it wasn't wet when they first started. So Andie was quite apprehensive about this room to start with.

We all sat down on the beds. Again the bath room looked errie so we took turns in spending a bit of time in there on our own. It was very dark in the bathroom but seemed ok just a bit weird.

We heard some knocks on the wall from room 30 and Andie found out later that there had been no one else in that room at the time we had heard the knocks and the door was locked as the keys were downstairs in our base room, so that was very interesting.

There was a chair next to the window so Kris sat in the chair while Carl was in the bathroom with the door shut. Kris started to feel a bit sick and could taste a funny taste in his mouth like iron or blood. Also he started shaking, Andie and Sharon both confirmed that Kris was shaking and it wasn't that cold.

Once Carl came out of the bathroom he sat in the same chair and he experienced the same kind of feelings that Kris had. It was very weird. The next thing what happended was even stranger, the tap had been running before we started our vigil so Kris turned it off and it stopped running.

But after the vigil when we looked into the bathroom Kris and carl noticed that the tap was running again and no one had touched it and also there was a small pool of water in the bath which was not there when we 1st came in and also there was a wet patch on the floor which was not there when we started, Andie thought this was too weird as the same thing had happened the year before.

Group 4 Report : Danny Shiela Denise Michael Georgina Claire

Georgina picked up on a small girl in the corner and a cold blast of air could be felt in the region that Georgina reported on.

Danny felt as he laid on the bed as though someone was pressing down on his chest ? on a previous visit to the Schooner he had reported the same thing,

Danny picked up on a cross and 2 girls and a boy, a young girl in her late teens who had been brought from the sea. Others in the team also picked up on a small girl who had been laid out on the bed ? a priest was also sensed.

Somebody (unknown who said this) also claimed to see as old lady and not long after this she sensed something to do with prostitution (EDITOR: Don't think the old lady was a prostitute!!)had been happening in the room.

Fifteen minutes into the vigil the room temperature dropped again - around the wardrobe the temperature drop was recorded at 5c. Also to go with the temperature drop 2-3 peoples nose`s had started running.
