"Either 17 people have all been having hallucinations - including the police - or this is the best-documented ghost story of all time."
Nationwide's James Hogg reports from a seemingly ordinary, suburban house in Ponder's End, Enfield, where residents have reported experiencing a variety of unusual phenomena. There has been knocking in the walls, and furniture is regularly thrown around the house - apparently unaided.
These bizarre occurrences have piqued the interest of Maurice Grosse, an inventor and a member of the Society of Psychical Research. Mr Grosse believes that the disturbances are being caused by a poltergeist, and thinks that the recordings he has made while investigating the disturbances in the house might be the best evidence yet of parapsychological activity.
Clip taken from Nationwide, originally broadcast on BBC One, 23 November, 1977.

Many years ago, a friend of my sisters (who lived alone) had similar occurrences: a. Two bedside lights in a spare room, which were plugged out, went on fire at the same time. b. For weeks and weeks, the occupant of the house would arrive home to find all of the back doors and windows open. c. Regularly hearing floor boards creak. d. Whilst the friend was downstairs, furniture was being overturned upstairs. Through the Estate Agent, the friend contacted the two previous tenants of the house. The two previous tenants said they rented the house for only a short time as there were many unusual occurrence’s. Through investigation, it was found that in the 1990’s the house was rented to a family who did ‘strange things’, which included ‘animal sacrifice’ and an Ouija Board. The police got involved and the council moved the family. A local priest was contacted and he was aware of the history of the house. The last I heard of this, was when the priest visited the house and I am told after which, no more ‘strange happenings’ took place.

This case is real, sure there was some bullshitting and exaggeration but the copper seeing the chair move, the slipper hitting the door - they were authentic reactions to supernatural phenomena. It's not ghosts though, I really can't believe in spirits roaming free after death - I think it's something to do with space, other dimensions, we don't know much really, loads of great Theories which solve part of the puzzle but huge gaps in our understanding of the universe still. The best thing is, if this was real then there must surely be other cases that are real.

True, some of these things did happen. Highly likely to be the mind's interaction with matter- but we don't know how. Poltergeists haunt people, not houses; but it's not a haunting in the conventional sense.

Nope. In some respects it rivals the Doris Bither/Barry Taff case as regards multiple and credible witnesses to the phenomena. The Ghostwatch production some years later was entirely fabricated, although it spooked many of the more gullible viewers, to the extent that many of them 'phoned in. What they expected to gain by that is anyone's guess, but then again you can't cure stupid.

I laughed so hard I fell off my rocker and lost my marbles. Even now days where everyone has cameras on their smartphones, nobody has managed to record any supernatural footage including the lock ness monster or Father Christmas. Maybe it’s not a spectre, it could be someone trying to contact them from another dimension, or even more unbelievable it could be a load of bollocks.
