Slaters Arms - Ground Floor

This image is merely a representation of the location and not to be taken as an exact

The ground floor of the Slaters Arms consisted of a number of rooms that were of interest. Obviously, a large bar area existed that contained a smaller alcoved areas under, while the bottom end of the bar contained a pool table and fruit machine.

A back-room to the bar also existed - it was here that Dell had previously spotted his shadowey figure. The room was small in comparison to the main bar and was dimly lit (possibly even at the best of times too).

Next, you will find a series of graphs showing subsequent readings (including baseline) that were taken through the night.

Group Vigils

What follows are the group vigils that took place in this location.

Note : These vigils are presented purely in Group Order and in no way reflect the order
 in which each group visited the location during the night.

Group 1

NGIers - Mark, Dell

Guests - Bren, John

tart time - 11.45pm

Readings throughout the vigil in Back Bar area:

EMF Readings: A full EMF sweep of the back bar area indicated readings of 2MG around the service hatch raising to 10+ MG 1m above the ground in this area caused by the bars cooling system. A reading of 10+MG was also taken from the light above the door that leads to the toilets. (Note: This is also the doorway where Dell had just come through when he saw his 'shadowy figure' on a previous visit to the pub). There were no anomalous EMF fluctuations during the course of the vigil.seen
Movement sensors were set up in the area where Dell had seen the 'shadow'. These were not triggered during the entire investigation.
Mark sat in the Back bar area in silence, taking baseline readings and filming the area where Dell had seen the 'shadow'. Nothing unusual was captured on film in this location.
Dell, John and Bren sat in the seating area to the right of the main entrance. They tried calling out and experienced a few slight tapping sounds.

12.33am Mark heard a loud 'Thud' upstairs (this is most probably Group 2 as John had fell off ladders into kitchen at roughly this time)

1.11am Mark felt cold although digital thermometer was not showing a significant drop in temperature.

1.29am Mark heard what he thought is a jangling of keys. This was also heard by Dell, Bren and John who were still sat in the seating area. The noise appeared to originate from the doorway at the bottom of the stairs leading to the upper floor. No explanation for this noise could be found.

Mark then went back into the back bar to attempt some EVP experiments, before going into the toilet to listen to any results and not disturb the others. On emerging from the toilets Dell told Mark they had heard voices (but not actual words) coming from the bar area. Mark immediately presumed they had heard his voice recorder playback through the toilet door despite him having the volume set fairly quiet. Mark the went back into the toilets and played the recording back at full volume while the other tried to hear it. Dell, John and Bren all said that they could hear nothing the second time.
