If you're doing an Essex paranormal tour, do Pendle, Borley, and then head to Colchester - loads of Roman and medieval hauntings documented there. Much more bang for your buck than just Borley alone.

Morning folks. Can't believe it's been 8 years since we started this mad project. When we launched Quirk Reports in 2016, we were just a handful of paranormal enthusiasts from Sheffield who wanted...

This hit the news yesterday and I thought it relevant to share here. The National Archives released a memo (ref: AIR 2/17123) from an RAF Wing Commander dated December 28th, 1981, three days after...
Brixton's got some interesting history. The area was developed on old plague pits and poorhouse grounds. Not saying that means anything, but Brixton does have quite a few reported incidents.

The 'British big cat' phenomenon is real. Ministry of Defence has files on this. Cannock Chase, Scottish Highlands, Bodmin - all have active populations. Your sighting is important.
I've got a similar family story. My great-uncle experienced something in a Leeds terraced house in the 1950s.
Could've been dodgy wiring in an old flat causing vibrations that loosened objects. The psychological component (belief in blessing) causing confirmation bias. But yeah, interesting story.

This is the most frustrating thing about being British and interested in this stuff. We're basically living under information control and everyone's accepted it as normal. Absolutely mad.
I'm thinking about getting into ghost hunting properly, and everyone seems to recommend thermal imaging. But the decent cameras are £800+ which is proper money.
As a Londoner, I'd love this. The London stuff gets completely buried under everything else. Regional sub-forums would be brilliant.
I know what people are going to say: 'it was a mangy dog' or 'your eyes were playing tricks.' Honestly, yeah. We see what we expect to see. Lighting at dusk does weird things.
Or maybe there just isn't as much activity in UK airspace? The US gets more sightings because it's geographically larger. Less to hide if there's less to see.
Could be worth ruling out practical explanations first? Have you had any building work nearby? Sometimes vibrations from construction can make things move in strange ways.

The singers might not be miners at all. Bodmin's got folklore going back to the Dark Ages. Could be something older than the mining operations. Just a thought.

The real Borley experience is reading the historical accounts and court documents. Harry Price's investigation was fascinating (and also highly disputed).

Derek's 100% real. I'm convinced he's also on Reddit debunking stuff, but it's the same Derek. Works night shift at GCHQ, absolutely hates Thursdays.

This is exactly the kind of testimony that matters. Credible witness, specific details, no financial motive. Your nan's experience is valuable to document.

Did you check your fuel gauge after? Sometimes adrenaline makes you forget basics. Not a dig, genuinely asking because I've done daft things when spooked.

Cannock Chase is absolutely a hotspot for big cat sightings. There's a legitimate theory that escaped exotic pets from the 1970s/80s established a breeding population.
Disagree slightly. I went last year and yeah, there's nothing physical to see, but the location itself is atmospheric. The energy or whatever you want to call it is noticeable.
