The Muckleborgh Collection stands on the site of Weybourne Camp, a military installation on the North Norfolk Coast. The collection itself was started by Berry Savory, a WW II fighter pilot, in 1988. It is the UK's largest collection of military vehicles still in private hands and consists of more than 120 tanks, vehicles and guns. Included in this are working examples of the famous Sherman tank and the Russian T34. The heart of the museum is based in the old Naafi building, the only surviving original structure. The rest of the older military buildings were demolished in 1986.
Located in the centre of Ireland, this castle is built on the site of an ancient burial ground where plague victims were buried in the 1700s. With a labyrinth of dungeons and stories of ghostly apparitions, the Most Haunted team were keen to investigate Charleville. The team immediately experience poltergeist activity as Derek picks up on a strong negative force in the dungeons and the team get lucky with a Victorian séance.
Part one of the Ruth Ellis ghost mystery. This very large privately owned house, built across Medieval, Georgian and Victorian periods, is said to play host to strange noises, doors opening and closing, dark figures in corridors and a room that seems to harbour a number of spiritual entities. When spiritualist medium Derek Acorah picks up on the sprit of a woman called Ruth, only the property owner Fred Batt can explain the extraordinary link. Fred also owns a Caesars nightclub in London, which is said to be haunted by 1950s socialite Ruth Ellis.
Yvette and the rest of the Most Haunted team are locked inside Derby Gaol where in the late eighteenth century scenes of total incarceration and brutal executions took place. Jason sets a trigger trap of a wooden cross on a piece of paper in a reputedly haunted cell, which gives incredible results. Huddled in a cell later during a vigil, the whole crew smell roses although nobody knows where it's coming from... Filming later reveals the presence of orbs in the very same cell...
James Leith built the first tower of what was to become known as Leith Hall in 1650. Since then subsequent Lairds have added to it so that now it is one of the finest examples of the ‘chateau' style castles in Scotland. There are reportedly many spirits that roam the rooms and corridors, as well as the grounds. The most famous is that of John Leith who was shot in a tavern brawl in Aberdeen. He was allegedly brought to the hall before he died three days later. A figure has been seen walking the stairwell, its head wrapped in a bloody bandage. Strange apparitions have also been seen in The Leith Bedroom - people have seen children playing or heard their laughter – and the ghost of Henrietta Leith-Hays has been seen roaming the corridors wringing her hands in a state of great melancholy.
Once owned by the Royal Family, Charnock Hall in Preston was home to a catholic priest by the name of Robert Charnock. In the 17th century Catholicism was frowned upon in Britain and many masses were conducted here in secrecy. Current owners and past residents have witnessed priestly figures and nun-like transfigurations. Could the child-like feelings and giggling that the crew experience be the work of ghosts of small children that used to live here? The team bravely conduct a séance where Rick is overcome with physical pains and tingling.
On a moonlit night, horse's hooves and the metal rims of wheels can be heard on the cobblestones…even when there's no one there. Some have heard a foreign tongue being spoken, when there's nobody about. Could this be the old Cornish language? Lights go on and off in the generator room, and staff who go in there say that they have the feeling of being watched.
Tamworth Castle is a typical Norman motte and bailey castle thought to date from the 1180's. During the Civil War the Castle was held by the Royalists in 1642. The Cromwellian forces captured the Castle in 1643 after a siege lasting two days. The castle is reputedly home to many spirits. The most famed ghosts are known to be the Black Lady and White Lady.
Michelham Priory was originally a church built on a medieval island. In 1556 it was transformed into a house where many families have lived through tragedy. This location proves to be one of th most thrilling locations the team ever visited. Ghostly legs spook the team and Yvette is petrified as Jason's electromagnetic field meter picks up on a spiritual figure that Derek subsequently makes contact with.
Culzean Castle in Ayrshire is haunted by seven ghosts. Built in 1777 the original building dates back to 1165 and was a stronghold for the Clan Kennedy family. When Derek arrives he takes the crew straight to the most haunted room in the house, the Earl's bedroom, where he sees a ghost. Whilst walking around Derek hears bagpipes and tells the crew the name of the legendary piper! Later in the Earl's bedroom, flashes of light on a painting spook Marcel, and Yvette attempts to coax the lady spirit of Cassallis to be caught on camera.
