CALVADOS CASTLE

Normandy, France

Calvados Castle Poltergeist

Calvados Castle was constructed in 1835, in Normandy France, built upon the ruins of an unidentified earlier building. From October 12th 1875 to January 30th 1876 the castle's occupants were terrorized by a highly active poltergeist. The disturbances were published in the Annales des Sciences Psychiques in 1893 by M. J. Morice.

The master of Calvados castle kept a diary that could later be used as a documentary of the phenomena, he insisted that his family name not be mentioned in connection with the "haunting."

The first paranormal incident was witnesses by the tutor of the masters son. He witnessed a chair move across the floor, later on that evening he also heard loud banging coming from the walls of his bedroom. The next evening loud blows were heard all over the castle the master and servants searched the castle but no one was found. These loud bangs on walls and door would continue through out the night and would continue almost every night over the next 3 months.

The parish Priest was invited to come to the castle and spend the night, he recalled the next day that he had heard the heavy footsteps of what must have been a giant of a man descending the stairs in the early morning. He believed that events at the castle were of a supernatural nature, and left the castle with great haste.

On Halloween the paranormal activity saw a marked increase, at the center of the activity was the Green Room. Loud bangs and and heavy footsteps were heard in the room which kept the occupants up until the early hours.
