waggy   10 #13 Posted September 23, 2009 very true as the Haunted Realm Paranormal Investigators know this so well  How exactly do you investigate? Do you turn the lights off and have a run around like on most haunted? I think its just an excuse to get more drinking done  Do walk around with a emf meter like in Supernatural?

warriormonk   10 #14 Posted September 23, 2009 The number of pub licencees reporting paranornmal activities in their establishment = the number of pub licencees seeking free publicity for their establishment in local newspapers.

SASBEAR   10 #15 Posted September 23, 2009 we have ghosts at both pubs  Isn't the Marples haunted (I know it isn't there anymore) - but I heard strange stories and in fact worked there and had a few spooky shocks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mrsv   10 #16 Posted September 23, 2009 Used to work in Under the Boardwalk, dont know what it's calling itself these days, and it was supposedly haunted, as was the Boardwalk above it. The area that the building they are in was bomber during ww2, which is apparently where the ghosties come from. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You just have seemingly strange things happening that you don't have an explanantion for as yet.  Just because you can't explain it doesn't mean it's supernatural!

dmh79 Â Â 10 #19 Posted September 23, 2009 How could anyone even post such a question? There are no ghosts in any pubs, or in fact anywhere else. Because they don't exist. If you think they do exist then you are a simpleton. If you didn't pay attention at school and are unaware of how life works, I'll simplify it for you. First of all you are born, then you grow older. Then you die. Then you rot. At no point during this process will you develop a "spirit" which will be released in the "afterlife". The only thing anyone can hope to achieve after they have died is to rot into the ground and maybe fertilize a few plants and feed a few worms.

chem1st   10 #23 Posted September 23, 2009 Carbrook Hall is supposedly haunted, and the Wig and Pen in the city centre is supposed to be haunted too. I don't believe in ghosts, myself.  I was haunted by the price of a pint in the wig and pen for many moons after visiting. The pint was awful too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mr Goose   10 #24 Posted September 23, 2009 I often wonder what the UK obsession with ghosts is…  There is trouble and problems in the world enough, without people inventing homeopathy, the MMR scare, eternal punishment, ghosts and the like.  MG  PS As I get older, I find it hardest to believe that (out the list above) that homeopathy still even talked about - at least the rest have a socio cultural issue :( :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
