Club holds monthly events for charity

A group with a passion for the paranormal has decided to hold a year of spooky special events to raise money for different charities.

The Ghost Club is organising a different activity each month this year and hopes to spread the word with launch of its new website www.ghost-club.co.uk

A clairvoyance evening held at Moggerhanger Village Hall last month was attended by over 100 people and raised £500 towards storm damage repairs at St John's Hospice.

And last night, clairvoyant Philip Kinsella was due to contact the spirits in aid of the Air Ambulance at Sandy Sports Centre.

Stratton Upper School will be the venue for a Day of Indulgence on March 11 to help the school buy healthy lifestyle equipment.

Ghost Club founder, Gail Peacock, of Willington, said: "We decided in January to work the whole year for charity. The events are becoming much more popular since Most Haunted on TV."

The club is also using its new website to organise private paranormal parties across Beds, Herts and Cambs and arrange for tarot readers, mediums, and clairvoyants to come to your home.

Ghost Club was founded by Gail, a medium, in 2002 and has five members.

"We are all either mediums or psychic healers, so we are all spooky in one way or another," she said.

Gail, whose parents were both mediums, saw her first spirit when she was aged just seven.

She said: "I am able to control it now and turn it on and off but I am always in connection."

The club also investigate haunted locations around the county and report their experiences on the website.

Last week Gail encountered several spirits on a private tour of Bedford's Cecil Higgins Museum by secretary Jennie Clark.
One told of her an old key which had been found but which the museum's guide knew nothing about.

"I received an email from Jennie later that day," said Gail. "She had been talking with the curator of the museum who confirmed that they had indeed found a key and that it had been in the safe for some time. Jennie was unaware of this fact. She was amazed and amused."
