Wakefield Museums and Castles

Paranormal investigation bookings

Pontefract Castle is opening its gates to groups interested in researching the paranormal!

Paranormal groups are now able to book a private evening at the castle. You can scan and record for any spooky goings on.

The castle was described as 'Bloody Pomfret' by Shakespeare. People often believe that the castle is haunted by its previous residents.

But, what do you think?

You can now conduct your own investigations. Grab your EMF meters, Dictaphones, and proton packs. Get yourself booked in.
