POLTERGIEST EXPERIENCES
THE REAL X FILES AT WARD 12
POLTERGEIST ARTICLES
In 1950 I was stationed at an RAF Hospital at Ely. As duty officer, I was completing a routine night patrol of the building when, to my surprise, I met a nurse. She asked me where Ward 12 was and I directed her to the appropriate corridor. As I had never seen this nurse before I informed the Matron but she had seen no one in the vicinity of Ward 12. I was about to leave when the Sister and I became aware of footsteps within the ward itself. Our flashlights revealed nothing. We turned the main lights on and saw no one but clearly heard the same mysterious footsteps walk past us.
The mystery was never satisfactory solved although the Matron could remember a young nurse who had contracted a fatal disease while working on Ward 12. Her description fitted exactly that of the lady I had spoken with that night.
But that was not the end of the matter. Furniture started to wobble and fall over and then smaller items were seen by myself and others, flying around, crashing against walls and breaking windows. A guard was immediately posted around the area and a thorough investigation ruled out the obvious, such as pranksters. The Institute for Psychical Research were called to investigate but was unable to pin down the cause of the phenomena. Their instruments measured an unexplained temperature drop in the building despite the blazing heat of a summer's day outside.

The phenomena that causes objects to move and poltergeist activity is called psychokinesis. Many researchers believe that objects are moved by an unknown human energy.
In the presence of some people objects will move, spoons bend and room temperatures change. Others argue that there are spirit forces at work. Your ghostly encounter may suggest the latter.
