Karen's Mediumship Pre-Investigation Walk - Old Cellar Only

Gentleman with a broken arm.  and the names or both Ernie (or Arnie) and Albert.  There was a feeling of a tightening of the chest and grit in his eyes, as if her was a hard labourer and used to working in dirt.

There is a really strong sense of a family having lived in this area and having spent a time here.  Confused as to the street level and if this should be above ground?  Sense of some kind of back alley?  The family would have had a young girl of about 6 and a boy of 9.  Drawn very much to the room down the corridor on the right just before the large one.

Picked up on the name of Bethany who also links to Elizabeth.

Back to the gentleman there was a link to docks and he passed with a heart attack at about the age of 62.

There was a sense of this also being a storage area and of linen and bedding being stored on shelves here.  There was also a lot of whispering heard which is sometimes hear by physical people.

Sense of a lady in a long dress.  Linked to Eliabeth.  She would have been very fashoinable and took great pride in her appearance, but also would have mixed with lowre classes.

Sense of the name of Graham being linked here, but much more recently.

Picked up on the name Jeanie.  There is also a link to the main graveyard up the top end of Brighton as well.

An old gentleman with a grey suit and tie on also wanted Karen to look for where there is a wooden ladder.  When trying to find it, Karen asked for more and talked about white ladder and wooden steps.  This was confirmed as being at the top of the house and going into the main attic.  Upon entering the attic Karen sensed that this man had once lived up here, and it certainly looks like this used to be two rooms.  It is also boarded out.  Sense that there is something still up there relating to this gentleman.

In the bedroom past this ladder Karen also sensed children running around and messing about with things.
