A small room at the top of one of the main sets of stairs in the Greenbank. The only furniture in the room was a double bed, a dresser and a couple of chairs. Again, an en suite bathroom.

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 - Claire, Bekki

Guests - Shaun, Michelle

The first 5 minutes were spent doing baselines. Claire was using the laser thermometer, which she felt was a waste of time to use in this way. However she took readings from 4 different areas of the room, which didn’t change much over the course of the investigation.

Bedside table top (near window) 15.4 after 15.3

Wall behind door to bathroom 14.6 after 14.5

Back of door wall 14.5 after 14.3

Wall next to the mirror (to left of) 14.1 after 14.2

Claire sat on the bed facing the window wall and Bekki sat next to her also facing the window. Michele and Shaun sat on chairs in the door area.

Bekki heard a few noises which she presumed was the radiator. Michelle said the heating had not been on since April. Claire heard slight noises from the bathroom which were natural to the bathroom, she wasn’t sure if it was those Bekki heard or different ones.
Bekki heard noises like footsteps and asked if anyone was walking in the room at the back of the bed. Shaun said it was an external wall, but Bekki could still hear footsteps there. Claire saw a dark area go over Bekki.

Bekki then said that she felt a cold spot on her right leg, so she took the temperature of it over a period of about 5 minutes. It was constantly fluctuating (24.2, 25.5, 25.4, 25.3, 24.2, 24.9 etc). At one point it went from 24.2 to 14.9, 15.3, 22.4 then carried on fluctuating as before. Bekkis hand got tired so Claire took over for few minutes, there was a o.1 -2 fluctuation but this seemed to settle. No cause was found for the ten degree drop after several things were ruled out by Bekki etc.

Group 2

NGIers - Jay, Dell

Guests - John

Jay took a seat next to the bed and under the TV, Dell sat on the side of the bed and John on the end of the bed. The room was very dark and quiet. Jay held the laser temperature at a spot on the floor and noted that the temperature was fluctuating. Nothing major, but enough to notice.

Dell began calling out and asked if somebody or thing was messing with the temperature within the room, then could the lower the temperature drastically. At this point, John stood up and went to sit in the bathroom which coincided with the temperature in the room dropping. And it dropped a lot – almost 8 degrees over the course of 5 minutes. This wasn’t a recording error as the room felt colder as we were sat within.
Jay and Dell asked John to come back into the room just in case (as unlikely as it would be given the size of the drop) his body temperature was effecting the readings. Strangely, the temperature began to rise again and eventually got back to the levels that it began at (again, over the course of 5 minutes and coinciding with Johns re-entry back into the room proper). Surely 1 persons body temperature couldn’t be affecting the temperature so much? No – it wasn’t, because no sooner as the temperature reached its “normal” level, it began to drop again. Strange indeed.

We then heard footsteps in the corridor outside. Footsteps that seemed to originate from right outside the door to the room we were in. Jay immediately went outside to see if someone was about. The corridor was empty. No sign of anybody. We checked with the rest of the groups later to ask if someone was walking about during this time – nobody was.

Group 3

NGIers - Mark

Guests - Tilly

Tillie was sleeping in the bar area (had a long journey home from holiday this day!) so Mark conducted this vigil on his own. Mark lay on the bed and 'called out' which produced not positive results. Mark also conducted a short EVP experiment which again produced no positive results.

Mark felt fine during this vigil which passed without incident.
