Later this week, I will be undertaking my most chilling adventure at England’s most haunted venue for a supernatural exploration like no other. The Ancient Ram Inn, with its spine-tingling aura and a history that whispers tales of the eerie and the uncanny, beckons the bravest souls to an all-night ghost hunting expedition. This Grade II* listed building, nestled in the quaint market town of Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire, is not just a relic of the past but a gateway to the otherworldly. With a foundational date stretching back to around 1145, its walls echo the spectral footsteps of its ancient inhabitants.
A Portal to the Past and Paranormal
As night begins to fall over The Ancient Ram Inn, the boundary between the past and the present dissipates! This once hospitable inn and priest’s house, now hosts those seeking encounters with the unknown. The eerie silence of the night is often broken only by the creaking floorboards and the whispers of the inn’s ghostly residents. From the terrifying tales of the Bishop’s Room to the sinister echoes in the Men’s Kitchen, each corner of this historic inn will offer me a story dipped in the supernatural.
The Haunting of the Bishop’s Room
Considered by many to the epicentre of paranormal activity within the inn, the Bishop’s Room holds stories that would freeze the blood of even the most sceptical ghost hunters. Visitors have reported oppressive atmospheres, sudden chills, and the frightening experience of being touched or pushed by invisible hands. The room, reputedly haunted by a cavalier, two monks, and even a succubus, a Lilin-demon in female form or supernatural entity that appears in dreams to seduce men; offers me an overnight challenge of unprecedented proportion, my most haunted adventure to date.
The Witch’s Presence
Amidst the dark tales that shroud The Ancient Ram Inn, the story of the Witch’s Room stands out. It was here that a woman accused of witchcraft met her tragic fate, burned at the stake in the 1500s. Her spirit, troubled and vengeful, is said to roam the room, a permanent resident of the inn. This room, a focal point of the night’s investigation, promises to reveal layers of the inn’s haunted history through EVP sessions and spirit box communications, I will be seeking to capture objective evidence.
Ghostly Phenomena and Psychic Energies
The Ancient Ram Inn’s location on intersecting Ley Lines is said to amplify its paranormal potency. These lines, channels of spiritual energy, connect the inn directly to the mystical Stonehenge, feeding into the vortex of ghostly phenomena observed at the site. The land’s history as a Pagan burial ground further intensifies the spectral activity, making it a hotbed for psychic research and ghostly encounters.
The Challenge of the All-Night Investigation
Ghost hunting at The Ancient Ram Inn is certainly not for the faint-hearted. It is a test of courage, a battle against the creeping dread of the night. As fatigue sets in and the veil between worlds thins, participants must use all their resources—digital recorders, EMF meters, and infrared cameras—to document and interact with the entities that claim the inn as their own, while battling their own dwindling energy.
Investigating through the night, my fellow ghost hunters and I will navigate the shadowed hallways and dimly lit rooms, each step into the unknown driven by both fear and fascination. Our, and certainly my goal? To connect with the spirits, understand their stories, and aiming bring back evidence of the paranormal—a fleeting voice on an audio clip, a shadow in a photograph, or an inexplicable reading on a sensor.
