The Cumbria Ghost Hunt squad will be trying to uncover the spooky secrets of the Millom Palladium Theatre.
Founder of the team, Mark Hankin, says they are very much looking forward to exploring the mysterious ‘energies’ lingering in the St George’s Road building.
He said: “There has been a few people who say they’ve felt a presence in the palladium. I’ve been down myself to have a look at the location and I picked up on two areas straight away where activity has been reported by people.
“We’re very hopeful that we’re going to have a good investigation there.”
The Cumbria Ghost Hunt team will hold its investigation in Millom overnight on October 13.
Mr Hankin, who oversees Cumbria’s roads network as part of his day job with Capita Symonds, said the team will be looking to deploy several ‘spirit communication devices’ in Millom, including seances and an automatic writing planchette.
He said: “We’ll be looking to do a couple of seances at the Millom location – it’s absolutely rife with activity that we can’t explain.
“It is said there is a presence on the stage area. When I was looking round the building, the stage was one of the places where I picked up an energy and I went right to the exact spot where it has been experienced before.
“It’s my guess that it may have been someone who did amateur dramatics or was involved with the theatre.
“But we won’t know until we do the investigation. We’re very much looking forward to investigating it.”
Since starting in January last year, the team has been busily investigating locations throughout Cumbria, including the Millom Discovery Centre and the Nan Tait Centre, in Barrow.
Mr Hankin has been a medium for the past 23 years, starting with tarot card readings before progressing in to psychic development work.
He said: “I’d be doing readings at people’s houses and they’d say ‘can you just have a look in the back bedroom, we think there’s something there?’ Sometimes there was something, others there wasn’t.”
