Ep 6. The Ostrich Inn

The show Most Haunted is a paranormal investigation series that travels to locations across the United Kingdom in search of ghostly activity. In the sixth episode of season one, titled "The Ostrich Inn," the team visits a historic inn in Colnbrook, a small village in Berkshire, England.

The Ostrich Inn has a long and notorious history. The inn was originally built in 1106 and has been used as a resting place for travelers and as a pub throughout its history. However, the building has also been the site of several murders, including a husband and wife who were killed by the innkeeper in the 17th century. It is said that the innkeeper would douse them with boiling water and push them down a trapdoor into a vat of boiling water where they would die. Their bodies were then disposed of in a nearby river.

The current owners of the inn believe that the ghosts of the murdered couple haunt the property, as well as the ghosts of other victims who were killed and disposed of in the same way. They have reported seeing ghostly apparitions and hearing strange noises throughout the building.

The Most Haunted team, including host Yvette Fielding, psychic medium Derek Acorah, and historian Richard Felix, arrive at the Ostrich Inn to investigate these claims. They start by exploring the different rooms of the inn, including the bedroom where the murdered couple is said to have stayed, and the pub area where they were killed. The team uses various equipment, such as EVP recorders and temperature sensors, to try to capture any evidence of paranormal activity.

As the investigation progresses, the team becomes more and more convinced that there is indeed some sort of ghostly presence in the Ostrich Inn. Derek Acorah claims to have made contact with the spirits of the murdered couple and speaks to them through his psychic abilities. Yvette Fielding and the rest of the team also experience strange occurrences, such as unexplained noises and sudden drops in temperature.

To further investigate the supposed hauntings, the team also explores the inn's cellar, where the bodies of the victims were most likely disposed of. In this dark and eerie space, the team experiences some of their most intense paranormal activity yet, including unexplained noises and a sudden attack on one of the crew members.

Throughout the episode, the Most Haunted team examines the history of the Ostrich Inn and delves into the dark secrets of its past. As the investigation continues, the team becomes more and more convinced that the inn is indeed haunted by the ghosts of its past victims.

In conclusion, Most Haunted season one episode six, "The Ostrich Inn," takes viewers on a spine-tingling journey into one of the most notorious haunted locations in the United Kingdom. Through the use of psychic abilities and scientific equipment, the team investigates claims of paranormal activity and comes face to face with the gruesome history of this centuries-old inn.
