A FLYING object and strange neck pains were the "ghostly going ons" discovered by a team of paranormal investigators at an East Lancashire pub.

The ghost hunters plan to return to Pendle's Four Alls Inn, Higham, where they spent the early hours of Saturday investigating, later in the year.

The Paranormal Activity Research Team, visited Pendle as part of its research into the history and the supposed paranormal tales of the Pendle Witch Trial.

Duane Ellis, with the other team members, set up camp at the pub to investigate after they heard stories about spooky goings on where pub regulars had told of sightings of a male figure at the end of the bar and of a young girl walking through the bar and through a wall into the toilets.

The pub's cellar was previously used to store bodies before moving them to the graveyard across the road.

Investigators spent four hours in the pub using infa-red video cameras, digital video recorders and an EMS metre which records electro magnetic fields.

Mr Ellis, one of the founding members of the Leeds based team, said: "We had one or two things that happened there so we want to go back during the week later in the year.

"There an incident in the cellar where something was thrown towards the group.

"It didn't hurt anyone.

"It just landed on the barrels behind us but we couldn't find it.

"We had another instance in the main barn, which is detached from the pub, where two or three members picked up feelings of extreme neck pain.

"There have been rumours of a suicide there but none of my team members knew about this."

Landlord John Baron, who was not in the cellar when the incident happened, said: "We had heard about ghosts in the pub from the previous owners.

"We have been here a year and haven't seen anything but I was quite happy for them to do this."
