Lots of wholesome activities to do, in-between monster hunting; a bit of fishing, photography, birdwatching… and dressing up in disguise.

Haunted 600 year old farm, ‘Kilminorth’, in the heart of the ancient oak woods of #looe, #cornwall. Some photos from our last event. A wild night of experiments, including the ‘Estes Method’ which I found fascinating. #ghosts #haunting #paranormal @shadowtor.bsky.social
