Living in Cornwall I get a lot of "what was on my roof" moments, usually turns out to be gulls or a fox. But the dog thing is what gets my attention here.

@TheForestryWorker the pre-1974 stuff is interesting but I'd want to know how much of it was documented at the time vs. recalled after the main event made the news.

@Phillsy52 raises something I think about a lot with poltergeist cases generally. The Cage had multiple residents over the years reporting the same stuff independently, which does make it harder...

Never heard of that specific one but old farmhouses in isolated spots do seem to attract a lot of stories.

The knocking is what always gets me with Sauchie. Had something similar in a cottage near Redruth years back - rhythmic, deliberate, like it was responding.

Four nights of autonomous monitoring is brilliant methodology. I'd add: cable locks for securing gear to stakes, redundant power (battery packs and solar panel backups), and multiple data storage...

Welcome! You're in the right place. The Skywatching forum's got some brilliant people doing actual structured observation - proper data collection, correlation with known aircraft, ADS-B...

consider asking whatever's there to leave you alone Right so we're back to talking to ghosts like they're going to listen. Look, statistically this is almost certainly a medical issue.

Yorkshire's got its own phantom animals, yeah - the Barghest is probably the closest equivalent to Black Shuck. Usually depicted as a large black dog with fiery eyes.
