Join us for an in-depth investigation at one of the country's most famously haunted locations? This extraordinary opportunity invites you to delve into the eerie atmosphere and rich history of a site that has captivated the imaginations of paranormal enthusiasts and skeptics alike. Our experienced team, composed of seasoned investigators with a passion for the supernatural, will lead you through a thorough exploration of this highly unsettling site. We will share our extensive knowledge about the location's dark past, recounting chilling tales and documented encounters that have taken place over the years.


The current location of the gaol was strategically chosen in Derby's "execution quarter." It was common for prisoners to face execution at the Gallows. Around 1752, when Derby Gaol was established, the law had implemented its most gruesome punishment. It was not uncommon for murderers to be sentenced to death by being "hung, drawn and quartered," a form of execution where the public could witness both the hanging and the dissection of the body. These were brutal times, and Derby Gaol would have been an extremely harrowing place to be.


As we navigate the dimly lit corridors and shadowy rooms, we will employ a variety of investigative techniques and state-of-the-art equipment designed to detect any paranormal activity that may be present. You will have the chance to witness firsthand the tools of the trade, including EMF meters, infrared cameras, and spirit boxes, all of which are instrumental in our quest to engage with the spirits residing within its confines. Our goal is not only to uncover the mysteries that linger in the air but also to foster a respectful dialogue with any entities that may choose to make their presence known.


Throughout the evening, we will encourage you to share your own experiences and feelings as we explore this haunted locale together. Each participant will have the opportunity to take part in various activities, such as EVP sessions  aimed at enhancing our connection to the other side. The atmosphere will be charged with anticipation and excitement as we seek to unravel the secrets that have long been hidden within these walls.


Join us for this unforgettable journey into the unknown, where history, mystery, and the supernatural converge. Whether you are a seasoned ghost hunter or simply curious about the paranormal, this investigation promises to be a thrilling experience that will leave you with lasting memories and perhaps a newfound understanding of the spirit world. Prepare yourself for an evening filled with intrigue, spine-tingling moments, and the possibility of encountering the inexplicable.
