C Blunt Boatbuilder, Williamstown
Date: Sunday 1st August
Time: 7.45pm to 8.20pm
Weather: Rain, cold, dark
Sense approximately 8 spirits present:
1. ‘Arthur’
• White beard
• Walking up and down the shed
• A few of us felt as though he was walking through us
2. The man in the third photo in the office:
• He was wondering what we were doing there
• He doesn’t believe in ghosts
3. George
• In his early 50s
• Linked to a fire at Liston Tennis Courts- feel there used to be sheds there
that burnt down
4. Michael Raymond Starch
• 28 years old
• Came in through the back door from the pier
5. 14 year old called Ruben
6. Children
• Kim saw small people- children in the shed. Believe they came in with him.
7. Other workers- going about their normal business
• Men are all working, not minding us being there and not trying to interact
Layout
• Used to be a door on the left hand side wall
• Used to be a verandah extension on the right hand side wall with door
• Used to a large hand wench/crank on the verandah
Middle of the shed
• The strongest activity of the night occurred in the middle of the shed.
• Most of the group sensed a presence in the same spot- middle of the room
between the saw and boat
• Very cold spot to stand on despite the temperature gauge indicating that it
was warmer than the rest of the room
• Ama and Kim were drawn to the middle of the room where Kim became nauseous
and entered a trance like state.
Other
• Sense barrel making and barrels being rolled across the ground
• Someone hanged themselves at the front, felt the need to look up
• Each time we asked for a ‘sign’ the rain became louder (not it was a rainy,
blustery night)
