Join Haunted Rooms for an unforgettable evening of paranormal investigation at this ancient, secluded manor house!

A ghost hunt at the Historic Borwick Hall near Carnforth, Lancashire, is an opportunity you won’t want to miss. Mentioned in the Domesday Book as the manor of Borwick, the oldest surviving parts of the building are from the 14th century when a Pele Tower was constructed to ward off marauding Scots.

With such a long and colourful history, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that there are a fair few ghosts in residence. Since the hall was opened as an Education Centre by Lancashire Council, the number of paranormal reports has skyrocketed.

Young residents complain of cries and moans from empty rooms in the dead of night. In one instance, a group of boys plucked up the courage to investigate the strange noises, only to be confronted by a man’s apparition staring menacingly at the end of the corridor.

There are tales of the White Lady who haunts the tower. She’s described as young and pretty but with a distinct melancholy demeanour. Her ghost still haunts the tower, where she was held captive by her father until she agreed to marry a man she did not love. Her heart belonged to another, so she refused the arrangement and died of starvation after her father wouldn’t set her free.

Many other ghosts are believed to haunt this foreboding building, with visitors and staff refusing to enter certain areas on their own.

Are you brave enough to take on this unnerving country house in the dead of night? Not only will you be joining a real paranormal investigation, you’ll also have the option to spend the night!

Who wants to travel down those spooky dark country roads in the dark anyway when you can spend the night in an even spookier and incredibly haunted manor house?

On a ghost hunt at Borwick Hall, you will join our friendly, experienced team taking part in various experiments and seances and have complete access to our range of paranormal equipment throughout the evening.

We keep our groups small, so you have a much more personable experience, with little chance of being interrupted by other groups or suffering noise contamination.

Your evening at Borwick Hall is a real paranormal investigation. We leave out the fluff, do not have actors, and don’t fake activity.

This is an optional sleepover event with dormitory-style rooms, so you may be sleeping in the same room as other guests. Groups booking together will be in the same rooms.

Do you have what it takes to participate in a lone vigil in the tower?

Our team can’t wait to welcome you to this incredible location and to share a night of ghost hunting that you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

Spots will fill up quickly for this one, so hurry and book now!

Deposits are available for just £20.

The investigation will be in darkness so please bring a torch with you.

Although snacks and drinks are provided, you’re welcome to bring your own. There are also facilities to make both hot and cold drinks, which are provided also.

What to Expect

On your ghost hunt with Haunted Rooms, you will have full exclusive access to the most haunted areas of this historic location. Together with our friendly team of investigators, you will join others on structured vigils, where you’ll have the chance to use some paranormal equipment and join in on group vigils such as Ouija board sessions and seance.

Our event starts at 9.00 pm, but you can arrive at the earliest 8.30 pm. Structured investigations will end around 12-1 am. At that point, you will have the opportunity to investigate this location on your own using the techniques and information you have been provided with.

After free time has come to an end (3am), you will then be able to retire to your beds and try and get some much-deserved rest!

You will have the chance to look around the building before the event to familiarise yourself with its layout. Shortly before the event kicks off, we’ll run you through a quick induction and safety briefing, followed by a short talk and introduction from our team. You’ll then split into smaller groups with your family and/or friends if you’ve come together, and we’ll begin our vigils for the night!

If you have your own paranormal equipment, we encourage you to bring it, if not we can provide them free of charge. Snacks, refreshments, and treats will be provided at intervals throughout the night, and we’ll have facilities to make hot and cold drinks too.

We endeavour to have mediums and sensitives for every event, although circumstances out of our control can sometimes prevent this. Anybody with sensitive abilities, we encourage you to come forward, as it only increases the energy and enjoyment for all in attendance.

To get the most from the evening we encourage you to try your hand at as many things as you can, and if you’re feeling particularly brave you should give a lone vigil a try, as well as joining in with our table tipping experiments as we try to commune with the spirits and ghosts of the building.

Please dress weather appropriately, with extra layers of clothing if it’s cold, plus comfortable shoes and a torch if you need one.
