Annette frol littleover.you asked about the land behind the firestation where Hall Park flats are?? Well myself and 3 friends did a Ouija board there about 19 yrs ago and the sherry glass shot off the board and smashed into pieces on the paving stone. We all legged it in fright but the next day when we went back,the glass was whole but with a long crack down 1 side!!

Me and my mother are convinced our house is haunted, both the dining room and larger back bedroom. The dining room by a middle aged woman who stands in the doorway to the kitchen and we have no idea about the bedroom. We are not positive about the woman but this is what we both 'felt' before we even spoke to each other about it. She doesnt seem malicious or angry, maybe just a little sad. Anyone know where I can find out who has lived here previously?

for anyone intrested in getting out of derby i recently went up 2 st lawrences church in eyam derbyshire.we arrived about 8.00pm very dark but also loads of activty recorded on my camera went the following night and again got a great response from the spirits.loads of history around the place but also very relaxing didnt feel uneasy about any of the spirits in the graveyard.did attempt to go up to rileys graves but got a very bad precence on the way up more of a warning than being harmfull..if anyone else has been up eyam would love to hear your comments thanks andi 16/12/2006

i agree with derby being most haunted place in britain, where ever you go, you never feel alone, which in a way is nice. I've been on a ghost walk and still have not seen everything but in derby its not a case of having to see it to beleive it, its more that you can feel it, also, has any one expirenced anything at seymours wine bar? my parents used to own it and my mum often smelt lavender strongly and the window cleaner claims he actually saw the ghost of an old lady upstairs. does anyone know anything about the place or why it could be haunted?
Hannah-derby

hi i have lived in derby all my life and i have never seen and ghosts or and sign of ghosts i am quite disapointed i am very interested in findin out more bout ghosts i have got most of the dvds and i am lookin into goin on a ghost walk maybe one day i will see something
sam mickleover

could anybody please tell me if there has ever been any reports of a 'ghost train' in derby. My parents both witnessed this in derby around the late seventies whilst in their car and their were other cars present at the time so their must be other witnesses although they didn't realise till the next day that the site had not been used as a rail line for many years and upon returning to the site the next day realised that there was no longer a track running across the road. would be interested to know if their was ever an accident involving a train in derby or if anyone else has witnessed the same thing.

(Rachael - our news team would very much like to talk to you. Could you please drop us a quick email to make contact - send it to derby@bbc.co.uk. Many thanks!)

I agree with Jason about his school, i cleaned there and saw a shape drifting down the stairs one morning also childrens voices have been heard near the gym at 6 in the morning and no one was around just the cleaner. Quite a few areas on this site are haunted

annette,littleover

i believe the house i live in is haunted by as far as i can tell, from what my children say 2 ghosts, they are not violent, they do not leave you with any uncomfortable feelings, just an awareness that they are there, we now live in what i would call harmony with them.
pat williams, long eaton

I have had very wonderful experience with the spirits of Elvaston Castle today. Not in a creepy, or stereotypically haunting 'spooky' way though. I was a little surprised when it happened. But I found the feeling of them being there so welcoming.. it felt really good. Im not a very religious person and I do not have any history of mental illness! Too much time is spenty focussing on the negative with regard to spirits. The spirits I encountered today were certainly very positive, even a little playful! Their souls have not passed over for a reason... which I think is not generally to terrify the living. Try not to be affraid of them... easier said than done... (I used to be terrified of all things spiritual!) Some can definately be really pleasant!

I heard thet Fat Cats on Sadler Gate is meant to be haunted ( well, outside). Someone I know Said they saw a horse and carriage going down the road, and a man running after it, waving a crop, as if trying to catch the horse! People say it is because there used to be a stables where Fat Cats is now! More than 1 person has seen this site! Ahh!
