Local Builder claims Hauntings at Crowley Hall

A property developer in England has had to stop work on the housing development at Crowley Hall, after claims of mysterious paranormal happenings.

Crowley Hall was bought by local property developer Steven Newton, who intended to turn the old hospital into flats. Work had begun in early 2006, but had to be stopped when human bones were found behind a fireplace. Enough bones were found for four human bodies. Investigators had to be called in before work could continue.

"It has reached the point where some of these incidents that are happening here, have got so bad, that the builders have stopped work, and are refusing to come back to the hall. I am finding it very hard to get builders willing to work here."

An anonymous worker told us about the work he was doing on the flooring, when his toolbox slid across the floor and smashed against the wall. Some workers have also been pushed over by unseen forces. One of the workers was almost pushed down the stairs during a violent occurrence. It was when somebody found that they had been bitten, that it was decided to stop work there. Steven has had to call in experts to try and find the source of all the disturbances.

"The police told me that there is nothing I could do, so I called in a team of ghost hunters. I think the police thought that I was making it all up."

Crowley Hall was built in the late nineteenth century and has had its share of controversy over the years. Built as a hospital, then later becoming a mental asylum, it ceased serving this purpose when its founder, Dr. Bernard Leys, died of a heart attack while performing an operation on one of his patients. After this incident, rumours emerged about how Dr. Leys was carrying out unsanctioned tests his patients. This has never been verified, due to a fire that broke out at the Hall and destroying all of his notes and records.

Crowley Hall was left abandoned for many years, later to re-open as a children's hospital in 1970. During this time, there were many paranormal incidents recorded. It has been suggested that a spiritual medium was brought to the hall to cleanse it, and remove the evil spirits. Paranormal activity seemed to cease after this. Eventually, a bigger hospital was opened nearby, and all the patients were moved there and the hall closed down once again.

Steven purchased the hall in 2005, and wasn't really a believer in the paranormal until now. He hopes that if the investigators can help to explain what's going on there, then he might be able to understand a little bit more of the afterlife, and continue with the work.

"All I want is to know what is exactly going on in that place, and hopefully it will stop me feeling like I am going mad."
