Most Haunted Season 9 Episode 22 Most Haunted Extra: Stockport Workhouse

In Most Haunted season 9 episode 22, titled "Most Haunted Extra: Stockport Workhouse", the team investigates a notorious workhouse in Stockport, England that has a dark and tragic history. The workhouse, which operated from 1841 to 1948, housed some of society's most destitute citizens including those deemed as "able-bodied" who were forced to undertake hard labour.

The team begins their investigation during the day, where they interview local historians and caretakers of the site, who share their own experiences of the supernatural occurrences that have been reported at the workhouse. The caretakers reveal that they have heard phantom footsteps and doors opening and closing on their own, indicating that there may be some restless spirits lingering in the workhouse.

As night falls, the team sets up their equipment and begins their investigation. They start in the main hall, where they hear strange knocking noises and footsteps. The team also uses a thermal camera to detect temperature changes, and they capture an anomalous heat signature in an area that has been reported as a hotspot for paranormal activity. Additionally, the team members take turns in conducting solo vigils in various areas of the workhouse, where they report feeling uneasy and sensing a presence.

The investigation takes a darker turn when they discover an underground tunnel that connects to the former site of the workhouse's mortuary. The team descends into the tunnel, which is narrow and cramped, and they use a spirit box to try and communicate with any spirits that may be present. They hear what sounds like a male voice saying "no", which heightens their sense of unease.

Throughout the episode, the team also use various techniques to try and provoke any entities that may be present, such as calling out to them or asking questions. However, they also attempt to show respect and empathy towards any spirits that may be stuck in the building, acknowledging the harsh conditions that many inmates would have faced during their time in the workhouse.

In the end, the team captures some compelling evidence and experiences several unexplained occurrences, leading them to believe that the Stockport Workhouse may indeed be haunted by restless spirits. They recommend that the site be further investigated, both for its historical significance and its potential as a paranormal hotspot.
