Synopsis/Details
You've been up late, usually the worse for drink, and mashed the remote through the more obscure reaches of the TV spectrum...and found a ghost hunt programme; A team of game T-shirt matching enthusiasts descend on an abandoned sanitorium, or derelict asylum and wonder around the dark places in the early hours holding devices that beep and blink and draw animated stick-men where no-one is standing. They ask any spirits there to declare themselves and ask if they wish to communicate.
Then, 48 hours later, once "The Reveal", where white noise is turned into "LEAVE NOW" and "DADDY DID IT", is done, they pack up and skip town.
It's enough to make any self respecting ghost turn in their long-left graves.
Imagine if someone decided to take things a little more seriously.
What if someone had the money, not only to buy a Jacobean feudal Lordship hall, but to gut and renovate it, purely with the purpose of investigating and capturing evidence of ghosts?
Thus, all electrics would be removed. The control room would be lead lined. All light cabling would be foil insulated to prevent interference with any source of electro-magnetic fields. Then, state-of-the-art, highly calibrated paranormal capturing equipment would be installed, providing 360 degree coverage of the entire house across multiple platforms.
It would be an amateur ghost hunter's wet dream.
Now picture this; the team don't descend over the course of a long weekend. No, they move into the house in stages, over the course of a whole year, so as not to disturb the natural habitat of the incumbent spirits. clever, huh?
What you have is a dedicated team of professional ghost hunters who have given themselves the best environment with the very best bespoke kit in order to capture proof of life beyond the grave.
Let's consider that the person behind this venture, who bought the house and invested hundreds of thousands into setting up the experiment, had an ulterior motive for so-doing?
This person in fact has a long and traumatic history entwined with the hall and what happened inside the bedroom marked Fennel.
She is seeking revenge for a personal trauma that took a large part of her childhood from her, and her father's life. Her grief drives her need for revenge and she's been waiting- and preparing, for 22 years.
The problem is, she's not the only one. The other- well, they've been waiting a little longer. 400 years.
