An important update to Dr Paul's Ghost Map, please check.

Btw, I've rewritten my entry for the Cage on my ghost map based on your excellent work. I'm not disputing that paranormal phenomena may occur here, but its doubtful whether this is due to its disputed "lock-up" status:

We can only agree that anywhere and everywhere can be haunted, although my research also helped me form an opinion on the majority of the background haunting, although we chose not to discuss this.

Thank you Paul, greatly appreciated. It's important to get the truth out there and you have helped by amending your description, let alone putting a link.

Yes, again I can only agree, which I briefly touch upon within the article.

Correct Sir (well, at least there are now two of us....)

Published our latest article on our website earlier - posing the question:

"Can paranormal research really follow the Scientific Method?".

Will post an introduction and link tomorrow. Think "Betteridges' Law of Headlines".

Precisely - the paranormal is within us. However, this suggestion is too radical for many sadly.

Initially, we thought it had been placed to protect the Church however, as events transpired, perhaps it was to protect the outside from what was within the grounds itself?

A close up of the Hag Stone found protecting the entrance to Ulting Church, Essex, the long forgotten Medieval Holy Shrine of the Blessed Virgin Mary, during the first lock-down in 2020.

Clearly home made, very carefully, with a man-made hole drilled through a chalk pebble.

You need a photo from inside the room, looking to the window, could even be a lamp shade I guess.

.... and have messaged / rambled you on FB.

Paranormal Reason @paranormalreason.bsky.social · 15d

Thank you again Hayden. The trick is to approach without having an agenda or narrative to aim for, just do the digging and go with what the evidence tells you.

Paranormal Reason @paranormalreason.bsky.social · 15d

lol - if only!

Paranormal Reason @paranormalreason.bsky.social · 15d

I'll message you on another platform, but probably in the morning as I need my beauty sleep and, after just looking in the mirror, tons of it!

Paranormal Reason @paranormalreason.bsky.social · 15d

It was more a 'burden' if I reflect - I uncovered what I revealed early on in my research. None of it was difficult to uncover.

Every halloween I thought I'd release it, every halloween I put it off as I didn't want to interfere in any sales process etc. But this year........

Paranormal Reason @paranormalreason.bsky.social · 15d

Thank you Paul, coming from yourself, this is very much valued and appreciated.

As you've probably guessed, the follow up article wasn't planned but events dictated it be written, to reinforce and strengthen our research.

After the release of our research on the true location of St Osyth’s medieval lockup, we’ve been delighted by the positive feedback it’s received.

Many asked for more details, after we mentioned the 1st article didn’t include everything uncovered. So....

Thank you Hayden, the past week has been an interesting experience behind the scenes, as you can imagine but, thankfully, all positive.

I'll be posting a further update later, providing an insight to the research and, strengthening our evidence.

Truth in historical research is cumulative, not competitive. Every layer of scrutiny takes us closer to it, no matter if it takes us away from the narrative.

Paranormal Reason @paranormalreason.bsky.social · 15d

Our forthcoming research update later this evening will therefore clarify the evidential chain that led to our original conclusion and, explain why some maps can appear persuasive at first glance, yet fall short under detailed analysis.
