Beacon Hill Fort

**Read our COVID-19 statement**

Join us at Beacon Hill Fort, Harwich, Essex.  This is a new location for Essex Ghost Hunters, and we cannot wait to investigate.

As always to give you the very best ghost hunting experience EGH will be working in teams of a maximum of 10 people with at least 2 Team leaders.

Beacon Hill has been used as a military Fort since the 1500’s but was left abandoned since just after WW2.  Please join us and discover the spirits that have been waiting for a generation.

Although the Fort had been reclaimed by nature for the past 65 years, Beacon Hill Fort’s guns once guarded Britain through two world wars where she was the front-line defence against and enemy naval invasion. Beacon Hill Fort was developed under King Henry VIII’s reign, evidence seems to be emerging that the site could back date to the Romans.

The fort was finally decommissioned in 1956.

Uncertainty still surrounds the death of a man whose burnt and decomposing body was found at Beacon Hill Fort in 2000.  A murder inquiry was launched but the inquest heard it was probable the young man set fire to himself.

You will be investigating one of our newest locations so we suggest that you bring cameras, and other recording equipment, you may be lucky enough to capture something truly paranormal.

Your ghost hunt will include:

Tour of the venue

Vigils throughout the location working in small groups.

Spirit board experiments

Use of ghost hunting equipment including Dowsing Rods & EMF Meters

Refreshments throughout

Due to the upgrading of the site electric is limited electricity and the facilities are a little basic. There is a meeting room, but we will only be able to provide cold drinks.  If you require tea or coffee, you will need to bring your own flask.

Are you brave enough to join us at this fantastic new venue?
