'Surgical Spirit' Spooks Hospital

Staff at a state-of-the-art hospital have called in a chaplain after being spooked by a 'ghost' - but have denied there are any plans to carry out an exorcism.

A chaplain will visit Derby hospital next week

Workers at Derby's new Royal Hospital have reported seeing a black-clad figure in a cloak stalking wards and corridors.

The £334m hospital is built on the site of the old Derby City Hospital - the same site where a Roman road used to run.

A hospital spokesman has confirmed to Sky News that a number of hospital workers had been "spooked" by a sighting.

And she said a chaplain would be meeting staff next week to help allay their concerns.

Word of a planned exorcism spread after an email to staff was leaked to the media.

Senior manager Debbie Butler wrote: "I'm not sure how many of you are aware that some members of staff have reported seeing a ghost.

"I'm taking it seriously as the last thing I want is staff feeling uneasy at work.

"I've spoken to the Trust's chaplain and she is going to arrange for someone from the cathedral to exorcise the department."

But a hospital spokesman said: "There is absolutely no truth in what has been reported in the media today that an exorcism has been arranged.

"We will be talking to staff in the department to listen to their concerns.

"We respect our staff and always listen to their views to help put minds at ease."

Experts said the surgical spirit could be the ghost of a Roman soldier killed on the spot where the hospital was first built in the 1920s.

Developers apparently ignored local protests about the construction and covered over part of a Roman route.

While looking through a bookshop in Worthing I came across "Sussex Haunted Heritage" by Debra Munn, I was shocked to find that she had RIPPED OFF one of WSPI's reports. Debra Munn had ripped off the Halloween report from Michelham Priory aka Michelham Priory 2. i have been in touch with the publishers twice and not got a reply. Everything on this site is copyright but is free to use if we are told before hand, Debra Munn did not ask for permission from WSPI or COTC and didn't even give Arron Weedall (report writer) any acknowledgment. Naughty Naughty!

WSPI & COTC have yet again been featured in the Paranormal Magazine. BUY IT!

I have had another Investigation Report printed in January's issue of The Paranormal Magazine, it's the report from the 2005 investigation at Clapham Wood (DVD still for sale on the COTC website) a very big thank you to the guys at COTC for hosting another great Investigation, without them It's hard to write such good reports so Thanks Again!

WSPI decided to test some of the new ghost equipment hitting the scene to see just how good it was and so that you could get the benefit of us test driving it for you. First thing we tested was The GhostRadar, this item claims it can test for EMF, Temperature, Light as well as your body’s reaction to the situation… fantastic sounds great we thought and we were right it DID sound great but sadly it wasn’t.

 

 

YES it did test for EMF’s, YES it did seem to change when it got dark and YES it did slightly change when we increased the temperature however… it has no dial or numbers! How can you tell what a reading is if all you have to go on is a panel of lights. What MG is your EMF reading? What “C” or “F” is the temperature? how do you measure the lighting? And how do you interpret the reading given off by your body in “bio-feedback mode”? how can you write a report based on your readings? Simple you can’t.

 

 

All in all it sadly has no use as a serious Ghost Hunting tool but it does make a cool toy for the kids. as an optional extra it can have a USB storage device added upto 2GB

 

Overall rating: 5/10 (because it looks good)

Price: from £21.99 - £72.99

 

Goto: GhostRadar to get your hands on one

WSPI has just invested in a Motion sensor camera, this little baby will take a digital picture of anything that triggers the sensor. It take's an SD memory card up to 512mb (8mb built in) or can hook straight to you PC or Laptop via built in USB. WSPI and COTC are the FIRST and ONLY paranormal group in the UK to use this type of camera for it's investigations. but i'm sure others will follow.

This camera is normally used for Hunting bears or deer in the states so why not use it to hunt GHOSTS? the motion sensor is very sensative and will capture the slightest movement. they are only available in the USA or Canada so be prepared to pay for alot of postage.

 

 

Wow, WSPI's Arron Weedall won dinner with Richard Felix! Arron entered a competition on Richard's website and won! (you had to enter a true ghost story so Arron sent the Clapham Wood report)

Arron will soon let you know how it all went.

You can find Richards website on the links page.

WSPI and COTC are featured in this months (june) copy of The Paranormal News, the nice people at TPN have kindly run a double page spread on our second visit to Michelham Priory. This just goes to show that WSPI are not just some fly-by-night group and that we take Paranormal Investigating very seriously indeed.

Who's knows maybe we may feature again.
