Borley's a bit of a dead location now, honestly. Too picked over, too many ghost hunters traipsing about over the decades. If there *was* activity, it might have dissipated.

Pendle Hill has more recent activity (sightings and strange phenomena reported regularly) Where are these reports? I'm from Lancashire and I've never heard of regular activity at Pendle.

The audiobook narrator sounds like he's reading the instructions on a tin of beans. Ha! That's very specific but I believe it. Audiobook production quality varies wildly.

There's a video doing the rounds on TikTok that's got about 2 million views - allegedly filmed above the M25 near Potters Bar, shows a cluster of orange/amber lights moving in formation.
Absolutely buzzing about this. Was watching BBC Breakfast Tuesday morning whilst eating my porridge and they did a 3-minute segment on the spate of UAP sightings around the Peak District over the...
Could be military aircraft testing new technology - drone swarms, experimental flight patterns, that sort of thing. The electromagnetic disruption would fit with military-grade equipment.

Pendle Hill is brilliant for hiking and the atmosphere is genuinely eerie, especially if you know the history. But for active paranormal phenomena, I haven't experienced anything concrete there.

This is brilliant and unfair to both sides which is exactly the vibe we need. The believer in this scenario is being defensive ("I didn't come here to be patronised") when maybe they could...

Been doing some reading about haunted locations in England and I keep coming back to two: Borley Rectory (or what's left of it) and Pendle Hill in Lancashire.

Cheers for this. Been wondering whether to splash out on it. Might grab the paperback version rather than the audiobook if the narrator's that annoying.
Genuine answer though: most skeptics aren't wrong to be skeptical. The problem is skepticism without curiosity is just smugness.

The reason Borley matters even now is because it defined what a &quot. Haunted house&quot. Investigation should look like, for better or worse.

I've read that Beltane and Samhain marked important pastoral calendar points - moving herds, preparing for winter - which would make them significant dates regardless of supernatural associations.
has anyone here done serious research into the original Borley reportsI looked into this for a dissertation project (different topic, but it overlapped).

Because we're tired of being shown photos of clearly mundane objects and having to explain why they're mundane? The difference is our job is easier.

Just finished listening to the audiobook version of 'Skinwalker Ranch: The Truth Beneath' by James Ketchum and I've got mixed feelings so I thought I'd review it properly for anyone considering...
I've moderated paranormal communities before and honestly? This is about as civil as it gets. You should see some forums where people get genuinely vicious.

Ilkley Moor has a proper UFO history - the 1938 sighting, the 1987 incident, various other reports. If this is a genuine sighting, it fits the pattern of activity in that area.

Borley is a textbook example of why paranormal history is frustrating. By the time anyone could seriously investigate properly (in the 1930s), the story had already been told and retold for...
The temperature readings were normal though, which is weird because that's supposed to be one of the main signs, right?Temperature anomalies are overstated as indicators anyway.
