The Ghosts of St Mary's

Available for over a year

Over the last 60 years St Mary's Church, Clophill has become infamous not just for witchcraft and devil worship but for hauntings too. From Spectral beasts scaring news agents at Christmas, to a punk band who felt their haunting encounter at the church brought them bad luck, to more recent mobile phone footage of monk like phantoms. It's all explored in this episode. Did the church's sad past of vandalism and desecration disturb spirits who should have been left to rest in peace, or did black magic rituals held at the church, summon something demonic that lingers there still, or has the church's notoriety primed us to expect the unexpected when visiting the site?
