What’s in Your Hotel Room?
Ever walked into a hotel room and felt… watched? As a sensitive and paranormal investigator, I often find myself staying in rooms that feel anything but empty. From Lewtrenchard Manor to a hotel near the battlefields of Towton and Marston Moor, I’ve had cameras die unexpectedly, temperature anomalies, and orbs caught on IR. Some rooms don’t just hold memories—they hold energy. So next time you’re away, ask yourself: what’s in your room?

Walking Between Worlds: Why I Ghost Hunt and I’m Drawn to the Paranormal
Paranormal investigation, for me, isn’t about chasing ghosts—it’s about connection, energy, and listening to the spaces in between. I’m drawn to the quiet, the unseen, the places where spirit still lingers, asking only to be heard. It’s not about fear—it’s about understanding, healing, and honouring the past. Every experience brings me closer to knowing that we are never truly alone, and that the veil between worlds is thinner than we think.
