Uncover My Paranormal Investigations Blog
The night has a way of holding secrets. A door creaks when no one is near, a shadow lingers too long in the corner, a chill moves through the air though the windows are closed. These are the whispers of the unknown and it is here, in these moments, that our journey begins.
This blog is not just about haunted places, but about the presence that lingers within them. Old inns, theatres, manor houses, and forgotten corners of history and it is each one that hides echoes of lives long passed, some peaceful, others restless. Their stories drift between worlds, waiting to be heard, waiting to be acknowledged.
What you’ll find here in this blog are not mere tales of ghost hunting, but experiences that blur the line between the living and the dead. Evidence, encounters, and impressions captured in the dark hours when the world grows quiet and the veil grows thin.
So, step carefully, read on, if you dare. For beyond these words lies a path into the shadows and once you look, you cannot unsee.
The Brushmakers Arms; Where History, Hospitality, and the Paranormal Collide
The Brushmakers Arms in Upham is a charming country pub with a dark twist. Once headquarters to Cromwell, home to brushmakers, and a witness to murder, it now hosts both friendly spirits and something far stranger. During our investigation, we captured what may be one of the most astonishing pieces of paranormal evidence yet.

From mysterious energy shifts and a staff member’s sudden arm pull to a local warning about using dowsing rods, the night unfolded with quiet intensity. Though no major evidence was captured, the heavy stillness spoke volumes.
