Sarah welcome! Quick word of caution though - Bodmin's got some genuinely creepy spots that attract the wrong kind of attention if you catch my drift.

Right, I know these posts come in thick and fast, but I've got to document this properly because it was absolutely mental.

I'd say go for it. Used FLIR cameras are solid pieces of kit and the E4 will do everything you need.

The Mail owning this story is actually bad for the phenomenon. They'll sensationalise it then when nothing emerges they'll run think-pieces about gullible paranormal believers.

The land is genuinely interesting from a geological perspective too - there's underground streams and the soil composition might contribute to natural electromagnetic anomalies.

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

Don't bother with the full kit. Go minimal: good torch, EMF meter, recorder, phone for documentation, and one camera if you must. Anything else is weight you don't need.

This is actually solid advice and I hate admitting it. Too many posts here are basically "I saw a light move fast and weird" with zero corroborating evidence.
