THE GHOST HUNT AT SCARINGHAM CASTLE

There was going to be a ghost hunt tonight
In  scaringham  castle at the edge of the wood 
A very famous television medium would be there 
The advert promised that it would be good 

The sign outside stated "Ghost hunt" 
Here  in Scaringham castle tonight 
Come along if you dare to join us  
Welcome to this "fright night "

So I paid my money and entered 
Then I stood by an old oak chair
The medium made his entrance 
With dazzling white teeth and hair 


He opened his arms and said welcome 
To those who are  both living and dead 
He then told all of us who were gathered 
That in the west wing was an haunted bed 

The medium spoke in a Liverpool accent
As he started paced  across the floor 
There is a ghost figure drawing closer 
You can see it stood by the door  

The ghost hunt at scaringham castle 
Once owned by a famous old Lord 
The Ghost hunters gathered together 
Around the Parker brothers Ouija board 

Other guests were tipping tables 
The Pendulums swung too and fro 
People were using dowsing rods 
Everybody was  Having a go 

The tarot cards on the table 
What a story they did tell 
Pentacles, Wands, Swords  Cups
On the table in order they fell 

The ghost hunters  Started their  Hunting
Camera flashes filled the air 
Photographing orbs by the dozen 
Was that a smokey figure on the stair 

Then came the sound of footsteps 
A ghost walked right through the wall 
Sitting in a chair by the fireside 
Appeared an old lady wrapped in a shawl 

A suit of Armour seemed to move 
There was a sound of rattling chain 
In the distance they heard a whistle 
Of a ghostly railroad train 

The Ghost hunters were becoming afraid 
There was a ghostly knock at the door 
But it was only a Jehovah's witness 
With watchtower books by the score

They managed to close the door on him 
Then much to their surprise 
A ghastly, ghostly figure 
In the fireplace did arise 

The ghastly, ghostly figure smiled 
With a strange but knowing grin 
Thank you ever so much he said 
Its taken me years to get rid of him 

But soon the dawn started breaking 
Time to bring the ghost hunt to an end 
The ghost of Scaringham castle 
Was now their very good friend
