Seek out the spooky at Fort Paull, Hull

Do you believe in Ghosts? Exactly what is Paranormal Activity? Are you brave enough to find out?

There’s little doubt that public interest in all things spooky is at an all time high; never since Victorian times have so many people been involved in investigating the dark side.

There have been a number of very successful TV programmes running for several years both here in the UK and, of course, in the USA among others. This has no doubt led to this increase in popularity of this fascinating subject.

There are numerous historically famous haunted properties around the country and perhaps the Tower of London is the most famous.

However, it is incredible just how many other reputedly haunted locations are scattered around the country.

Now, you too have the opportunity of joining in with a professional ghost hunting and paranormal investigations company, that’s assuming you are brave enough of course, because the very successful and very friendly Simply Ghost Nights team will be hosting an investigation at Fort Paull

Fort Paull is a gun battery and fort established by King Henry V111 in 1542. Built to look like a medieval Fortress, and stands proud on the Edge of Hull. Additions were made under the rule of King Charles 1 during the English Civil War.

It stored ammunition during the Second World War as well as supplies for shipping to the Soviet Union.

In the 1960s the Ministry of Defence sold the site and it was purchased by the friends of Fort Paul to restore it and planned to make it a public location.

In 2000 it opened its doors as a fully restored museum looking at the past 500 years, complete with exhibits and aircraft displays.

Sadly in January 2020 the museum closed its doors to the public when the owner could no longer manage the location without his wife who used to run the museum.

Fast forward four years to 2024 and after five years of decay to many areas, the museum has now got a new manager who is determined to restore the museum again and get it opened to the public again.

Simply Ghost Nights are one of a few events companies who will be returning and investigating the spirits of Fort Paull. We are incredibly excited and very grateful to be offered a wonderful opportunity to get back in there.

This location is not really suitable for people with disabilities as it’s lots of sloping tunnels, stairs and underground areas.

So why not join the Simply Ghost Nights team? Take part in séances, Ouija board and table tipping experiments and also use the latest electrical ghost hunting equipment as you delve in to the past of what is believed to be such a haunted location.

Places are strictly limited and tickets cost only £39pp
