Most Haunted
Champness Hall
In this exclusive online addition of Most Haunted, Yvette Fielding send two of the team for an 'extra' investigation in uncharted territory, one of the biggest buildings in Rochdale, Champness Hall. Karl Beattie and Stuart Torevell head to the eerie location, which is named after the Methodist minister who funded the building, Thomas Champness. Their aim is to validate the claims of paranormal activity that has been reported by those working in the building. Staff have reported seeing a dark shadowy figure roaming the corridors, heard disembodied footsteps and voices, and have entered rooms to find furniture has moved around on its own. There's a grand piano in part of the building that's known to play itself from time to time, and despite its size and weight appears to move while the building is locked up at night. Some think the haunting good be a result of the building's only recorded death, that of a young boy who fell from the balcony in the auditorium in 1946. Ever since people claim to have seen his spirit and even a dark figure walking between the seats on the balcony. It proves to be an eventful investigation for Stuart, who saw something very interesting that he couldn't explain in the building's huge auditorium.
