Evening in
Norwich
Date of
Investigation – 8th March
2008
Investigators –
Duggie, Tracey, Benny, Gavin, Vikki, Clive We started the investigation at Norwich Cathedral. Upon
stopping at the front gates and calling out, there seemed to be no feelings felt
by any of us!! After admiring the view of the structure in front of us, Tracey
and Clive both picked up on the feeling of lots of people moving around us,
like a busy little market over to our right, so we headed off in that
direction. In this area the batteries on the camcorder went dead and after
replacing them we went on a little further. Tracey got the feeling that she had
to stop, and old lady in spirit came through to her who was in her 70’s. The old lady’s left knee joint was very badly
dislocated, she said that the pain was excruciating and from this point on, her
life was over, as it took so long to heal.
We moved on, taking this experience as a polite warning to be careful as
we walk towards
Ferry Lane. Gavin got the feeling here that a male was
stabbed in his left hand side and the attacker would have come from behind him.
It was felt that the victim did not die on the spot but carried on towards his
destination. We moved back towards the old entrance of the cathedral, and it is
here that Tracey picked up on a strange old man with a funny arm. Jason said
that he had the feeling of sciatica on the left hand side of his body and Tracey
agreed that she was also getting the same feeling. Jason walked out of the
area, only to have the feeling disappear and upon returning the feeling came
back. Tracey said that the old man that she was picking up on was hunched over
and was also unshaven as if he was not looking after himself. We all took it in
turns to go over to the old gates of the cathedral to look inside; at first the
feeling was of unease/panic and was very uninviting!!! After calling out for a
noise to be made, a slapping noise was heard and only a few seconds later a man
walked out from an alley just to the side of the gates. Therefore to our
disappointment we cannot say if it came from inside or out. Tracey also picked
up on a girl screaming in this area. Vikki said that when she looked into the
entrance it was very dark and hard to make out what she could see, although to
everybody’s amazement as we all thought it was surprisingly light inside! Vikki
also had the feeling that a male was killed in the doorway by another male.
Duggie felt that it was a bad feeling that had drawn him towards the doorway in
the first place.
We now moved on around the side of this amazing building
towards the grave yard. At this point Duggie pointed out a west facing grave
and asked if anybody was picking up on if it was male or female. Vikki picked
up that the lady in question had been shot, upon checking the head stone it
stated that she was sentenced to death by gun shot for patriotism on October 12
1915. From here we move around to the Adam and Eve public house and much to Gavin’s
disappointment there is no time to stop for a drink! We took in the views and
moved on towards the city centre by the river. When we reached Fyers Bridge
Gavin picked up on the body of a lady in a white dress being bound and thrown
into the river from the top of the bridge. When we made it to the top of the
bridge Duggie checked the area with the EMF Meter and it went crazy! He walked
from one side of the bridge to the other several times, but it would go on and
off at random points. We agreed that it
could be the lights under the bridge causing it, only to have the EMF Meter
stop beeping in the area it was before, and then starting up in a different
place. We were all left a little confused on this one……
We move on to Elm Hill, again the EMF Meter went off, mainly
at the old doorway to an old monastery.
We checked around for electric boxes and drain covers that could be
causing this. It was at this point the
Digital voice recorder stopped working even though the batteries are charged.
We decided to use the rest of the evening to take in a few well known sights,
Norwich
Castle and also the church that was used
to throw the bodies of anybody who was caught stealing from victims of the
plague. In the grounds of this was also the plague pit, the pit for the bodies
of the plague victims and those tossed from the top of the church. Opposite
this is where, as the story goes: Where a building that the bailiffs had
boarded up after its occupants died of the plague, upon removing the boards to
retrieve the bodies of the deceased after the controlled amount of time,
another body was found inside. It was that of a little girl, (who unbeknownst
to the bailiffs when they were boarding it up, was inside and still alive and
well). Her body was found beside her parents, whose legs had bite marks on and
pieces of flesh missing. It turned out
that the little girl tried to eat the flesh to stay alive, but got a piece
lodged in her throat and she died. We all then headed back to the car park for
debriefing after another successful investigation. Thanks Team for another great investigation.
