Wales: Ghost-hunting is all in a good cause

From This is Wales:  Ghost-hunting is all in a good cause
IF you go down to the woods this month, you may be in for a spooky surprise!

A paranormal investigation night has been arranged at Pembrey woods on Saturday, October 27 to raise money for the British Heart Foundation.

The Haunted Woods event begins at 8pm and costs £10 per person.

The organisation SPR Cymru will be carrying out the investigation — using special gadgets designed to pick up paranormal activity.

The group is a team of paranormal investigators made up of "sensitives, sceptics and resident mediums" based in Llanelli.

British Heart Foundation fundraiser Jayne Lewis said she was looking forward to the event.

"In our last event, the atmosphere was electric," she said.

"SPR Cymru have been fantastic.

"They do all the investigating.

"This event will go on until about 2am but we don't have problems if people want to leave earlier.

"We ask people to bring coats and flat shoes but it would be excellent if they dress up for Halloween."

The slow-paced walk will cover approximately two miles in the woods.

Jayne said they hope to raise around £500 which will go towards the foundation's Mending Broken Hearts appeal.

The charity is hoping the event is as successful as a similar paranormal investigation at Llanelli's Halfway Hotel in September.

Director of SPR Cymru, Mark Hinder, who organised the night, said: "It was excellent.

"People were taken around different areas of the hotel.

"One lady had a lot of information on the Ouija board about a relative.

"The electronic magnetic field reader was going off which signifies spirits were close.

"We have had fabulous feedback.

"Everyone enjoyed and we are looking forward to the event in Pembrey."
