In early 2007, a small team of paranormal investigators led by Arron Kasady, entered the building to conduct some preliminary tests. Photographs were taken, that produced images of strange orbs in certain rooms, particularly the old children’s nursery. Erratic temperature readings were recorded throughout the hall, and the team had the feeling of being constantly watched.

Following on from this initial research, Arron decided to conduct a full investigation into the ghosts that apparently reside at Crowley Hall. Not much is publicly know about the strange phenomena and ghostly sightings that have happened there, so it is a good opportunity to delve into the unknown and tell the story of the Ghosts of Crowley Hall.

A ghost team that includes a parapsychologist, spiritual medium and journalist, together with a film crew, spent a night at the hall. Throughout the night, various experiments designed to provoke paranormal activity took place. The centrepiece of the night was a séance, conducted by Arron himself.

However, not everything went as planned. The investigation was abandoned, with the investigation team and film crew returning a few months later to continue what they had started. The whole event was filmed and photographed for the documentary entitled 'The Ghosts of Crowley Hall'.

The Ghosts of Crowley Hall chronicles the investigation of one of Britain’s most haunted halls. The investigation stared back in early 2007, when Aaron Kadsdy began conducting tests by taking photographs. Those photographs produced strange images in certain rooms in the building. Kasady, then began to conduct a full investigation on the haunting of Crowley Hall in May of 2007. During that time, he brought a team of Ghost hunters. The team was comprised of a parapsychologist, a spiritual medium, a journalist and a film crew. They spend two nights at this place. During that time, the team conduced various experiments that were done in order to provoke paranormal activity through out the building. But thing didn’t go right for Arron Kasady and his team, as they had to abort the investigation.

Now fast-forward to August of 2007, Arron Kasady and his team of ghost hunt returned to Crowley Hall to continue where they left off in their investigations. Both attempts are the basis for this film.

I’m one of those people that usually don’t see many of these ghost shows like Ghost Hunters and Paranormal State because I don’t put too much stock into the existence of ghosts, until I watched this film. I was frightened at times with The Ghosts of Crowley Hall. Maybe the reason I was scared during this document, was the fact that this event really took place.

Director Daren Marc does a very good job in documenting the failed attempts that Arron Kasady and his team had. Marc doesn’t inject himself too much into the film unless he was asked to by Kasady. The team’s frightening moments were captured very well. There were a few dead spots there and here, but it’s supposed to happen in a documented investigation like this. I liked, how Marc also adds interviews before the attempts as he makes get a sense of what the main players in the investigation were going through in their minds before entering the haunted halls.

If there is one problem, I had with The Ghost of Crowley Hall, it was the fact that Daren Marc didn’t tie up the film with some closing thoughts about from Arron Kasady. It would helped given a little closure to what was happening with him and the team afterwards, but you can find in the bonus interview with Kasady, which is located in the bonus features section.

The end result with The Ghosts of Crowley Hall made me believe that ghosts really do exist. Also, I highly recommend this film particularly to fans of these paranormal series that I mentioned in the opening of my review.
