The museum is called the “Haunted Antiques Paranormal Research Centre.”
The center was opened thanks to the enthusiasm of local paranormal researcher Neil Packer, who also plans to conduct paranormal research there. The museum’s main hall displays numerous items discovered and acquired by Neil himself, along with descriptions of all the mysterious phenomena they are associated with.
There is also a special book for visitors, in which they can write down all the impressions they have about this or that item in the museum or about their visit in general.
The museum also has a social room where anomaly enthusiasts can sit and discuss what they’ve seen, as well as share their personal stories related to mysticism, UFOs, and so on.
Packer’s collection of paranormal items totals approximately 50 items. All of them were previously collected in his home (and the researcher himself apparently wasn’t bothered by such a strange presence).
According to the researcher, who has over 9,000 fans on his Facebook page alone, his museum is “a completely new concept in the vast field of activity that is paranormal phenomena.”
Judging by the photographs from the museum, the majority of the dolls there are possessed by spirits, including a ventriloquism doll, as well as several clown dolls (for some reason, in the West, they are very afraid of clowns).
Other haunted objects include an antique rocking chair, which often rocks on its own, and a child’s gas mask from World War II. There’s also a doll whose owners claimed it scratched them, and a fire alarm would regularly go off in the room where the doll was kept.
The building housing the museum is also unusual. It had been the site of regular ghost sightings, and Neil Packer was looking for just such a building for his museum. Visitors to his museum might even get a “bonus” opportunity to see the house’s ghosts.
