Ordsall Hall is the eighth episode of the fifth season of Most Haunted, and it's set in the historic Ordsall Hall in Manchester, England. Ordsall Hall was built in the late 15th century and is renowned for its Tudor architecture. It was once the home of the Radclyffe family, who were known for their wealth, nobility, and influence in the region. The house has a long and fascinating history, and there are many reported ghost sightings in the area.
The episode begins with Yvette and the rest of the Most Haunted team arriving at the Ordsall Hall. They are greeted by the staff who are keen to reveal the ghost stories surrounding the mansion. The team starts with a walk through the gardens, where they discuss the history of the house and the various sightings of ghosts that have been reported over the years. They then move to the Tudor kitchen where a psychic medium, Derek Acorah, makes contact with one of the spirit energies.
The team then goes on to explore the Great Hall, which is one of the most haunted areas of the house. It's said that the ghost of a young girl named Margaret, who died in the house, roams the hallways. The team tries to make contact with the spirit and sets up a series of experiments to test the paranormal energy in the area. They place audio and video cameras around the hall to capture any paranormal activity and use electronic voice phenomena (EVP) to communicate with the spirits.
As the team moves through the haunted hallways, they start to encounter paranormal activity. Doors start to open and close on their own, and they hear strange noises coming from empty rooms. They experience sudden temperature changes and feel the presence of spirits in the areas where the ghost sightings have been reported.
Towards the end of the episode, the Most Haunted team heads to the attic, which is known to be one of the most haunted spaces in the Ordsall Hall. It is said that a ghostly figure named "The White Lady" has been seen in this area. The team sets up a seance and tries to make contact with the White Lady with the help of Derek Acorah, who channels the energy of the spirit. The team members hold hands and attempt to communicate with the spirit using only their energy.
Overall, the episode is an interesting and spooky exploration of the Ordsall Hall. The haunted mansion, with its Tudor architecture and fascinating history, makes for a perfect backdrop for a thrilling episode of Most Haunted. The team's experiments and encounters with the spirits are fascinating, and it's sure to make a good watch for those who love all things paranormal.
