VIGIL REPORT FOR

‘GRACEDIEU PRIORY RUINS’

The team was made up of 10 members and it was decided to split into 2 teams. These were the teams for this vigil.

Team 1….            David Vickers (spiritual medium)            Helen , Ali, Lyn

Team 2….            Paul Wright (spiritual medium)            Wendy, Linda, Dean , Paul, Ian

With the priory being spread out as much as it is, it was decided that the old chapel was to be used as base. After a short briefing the teams decided to go to their locations and start the vigil. Here is a brief account of both teams and there findings:

Team 1……..

The team felt a lot of strange feelings in the chapel. 3 members of the team felt and saw a strange figure standing at the end of what seemed to be a corridor leading off the old chapel, these members were Ali, Dave and Lyn. Photos were taken but no evidence caught. Ali thought that she saw a big black dog like creature walking along the perimeter fence, near to the train tunnel side of the ruins.

As the team walked to the train tunnel, Helen reported that she saw dark shadowy figures moving in front of the tunnel entrance , as she entered the tunnel she felt drawn to go halfway down and stop. She did this and found herself feeling very ‘dizzy’ and having a headache. Orbs were caught on camera.

Team 2………

This team experienced many different and comparative feelings during the vigil. No activity was felt or caught on camera around the old chimney that stands alone, but this changed as they crossed the stream into the adjoining field.

Whilst in the field Wendy and Paul Wright went towards the centre of the field, Paul Wright felt drawn there. As he stood he sensed the spirit of a little girl curled up into a ball crying, as if she had been hurt in away that showed no physical marks. At this point both Paul Wright and Wendy heard what seemed to be a stone being thrown, narrowing missing Wendy and hitting the ground, they looked briefly through the long grass but no stone was found. When this happened Paul Wright witnessed a shadowy apparition running from the trees on the right across to the stream, which was to the left of them

Shortly after Paul Wright sensed 2 energies, what seemed to be nuns, looking directly at them from the trees next to the stream, although not saying anything Paul Wright got the sense of they were just intrigued to know as to why we were there.

Dean said that since going into the field he felt that he had feelings of sickness and a head ache, as he walked towards the statue in the field, he felt the need to take a photo, upon viewing there was an ‘orb’. He also felt as if someone was watching him from the trees.

The group decided to have a short time in the woods as reports of paranormal phenomena have been documented. Whilst in the woods Dave, Wendy, Linda, Dean and Ian all heard what sounded like a small girl crying to the right of them, at the same time Paul Wight stood alone some 20’ away and he too, at the same time, heard a girl crying to his left. Both parties looked towards the same area, photo’s were taken on 2 different camera’s 2 orb’s were caught. Dave, Paul Wright, Dean, Paul and Ian went up the embankment where another noise was heard and took photo’s, whilst here Dean said he saw the outline of the little girl, Dave also came up with the name of Lillie. Whilst here Ian felt like he had been touched gently about 4 or 5 times on the arm.

COMPARISONS

1… Sadly the only 1 physical comparison we have is the hearing of the little girl crying in the woods by several team members.

2… Dean and Paul Wright felt as if a strong broad man in the train tunnel, on the left hand side, was pushing them back.

3… Dean along with Paul Wright sensed the feeling of being watched from the woods by some one, Paul Wight said that he saw 2 nuns watching them.

WELL DONE TEAM FOR A VIGIL WELL CONDUCTED

****************** A TEAM MEMBERS DREAM AFTER THE VIGIL******************

Paul says that after the vigil when he went to bed he was drifting off and in his dream he appeared back at the ruins in daylight. He was drawn down towards the canal and the road where he was shown a horrific sight of disabled children being what only can be described as tortured, beaten and left to starve. This went on for some time; there was also a nun in grey and then one in black present. After a while a little boy led Paul by the hand and along a passage way similar to that of a rabbit warren of houses. This then ended the dream.

*******

  After extensive research Wendy has found evidence, although not official documentation, that does state that around 1546 it is believed that within the area Belton there were horrid treatments made against children with some forms of disabilities. These children were sadly pronounced as ‘Devil Children’ and it is said that those children were beaten, tortured and left to starve to death if the disability they had did not disappear.

It is said that the site of the ruins was built because back then, the villagers believed that this would rid the ground of any evilness and hopefully they would live a better life with crop growing etc.

As said before, this information is not officially documented but is believed to be the word passed down by the folklore that lived during that time.
