Once again our intrepid reporters have returned to Demesne Road in their quest to uncover the weirder happenings in Whalley Range. Nothing has been witnessed at the house since our initial evidence of a haunting and occult practice within was uncovered. 

This time we delved further into the dowels of the house, taking alongside us medium Catherine Renaud-DuBois and more sophisticated recording and detection equipment. Our report regarding the chilling findings uncovered during a seance with Catherine and a spirit referring to itself as General Halja will be posted here next week as all recorded evidence is currently undergoing further analysis and verification with our colleagues at the department of Forensic Science at MMU.

In the meantime we can present a few images of some intriguing items found inside the house, all indicating some form of medical research was taking place in the property.

The area looked as if it was previously set up as some sort of laboratory facility, fire damaged remains showed a crude fume cupboard and extraction pipe system connected to the houses main chimney [fig 3] but little else remained aside from a few shattered test tubes and a melted metal object warped beyond recognition by heat.

Got these pictures developed last week, didn't notice anything weird when I took them but the guy in London Camera Exchange was spooked when I picked them up. I asked him what was up and he shows me these two shots.

Turns out he grew up across the street and knew the old guy who used to live there, General Thomas Thawsly. Apparently the guy was a real saint but over the 2 years he lived there he went nuts, he stopped talking and just used to blabber the word "halija" over and over.

One day the place burnt down, when the smoke cleared they found the general burnt to a crisp in the basement along with the mutilated bodies of his wife and daughter. Apparently they'd been held down there for months and some supremely weird dark shit had gone down. The fire started from some kind of ritual he'd held, theres still pentagrams and shit all over the walls but I figured that was just the crack heads who'd drawn em...
