GHT
DVD LIST
Below
is the complete list so-far of GHT Vigil footage, availabe to view. We hope in the future to have active links on some of
these placenames to download a short clip, but for now this just represents a compilation of our investigations. This list
will be constantly updated after each new vigil.
KNIGHTON GORGES 2004
No DVD available
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith
GUEST:
Gordon Clarke (Uncle)
This was the actual first investigation
by the then un-named team. Although no DVD footage exists, the vigil was captured on 8mm video tape. We plan to get these
converted to DVD as and when funds are available.
BORLEY 2005
No DVD available
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Andy Ball
Colin and Andy used Borley as a
test for a proper investigation. Again we only have video tape footage for the vigil and will in due course have this converted
to DVD.
PLUCKLEY 2005
No DVD available
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
Another early investigation for
which only video footage is available.
DORSET 2005
No DVD available
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith
The last use of the video camcorder
that was 8mm tape based. During the holiday to Dorset, several locations were visited resulting in orb pictures but nothing
showed up on the video. After this holiday it was decided to replace the camcorder with a better make and model as this one
lacked NightVision and kept chewing up the tapes
PLUCKLEY 2 - 2005
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith - Andy Ball
The first outing for the new Sony
HandyCam. This disc-based camcorder also has NightVision and was used extensively during this vigil. At the time of writing
we have encountered a formatting problem with this mini DVD disc and cannot replace it with a standard DVD disc. We hope to
correct this problem in the near future.
KNIGHTON GORGES 2005
DVD only available on mini-disc format
as used in camera
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith
Another visit to the Isle of Wight`s
most haunted location. The DVD footage is part of the holiday disc shot over the time of the week whilst staying on the island.
Its hoped to separate the Knighton footage from the holiday footage and place this on a separate DVD disk.
HADLEIGH CASTLE 2005
DVD only available on mini-disc format
as used in camera
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith - Andy Ball
This DVD will soon be updated to
full DVD standard disc. The vigil shows the perils of filming in outdoor locations as the weather was terrible!! Rain can
adversly effect the quality of the film footage especially at night, and can damage expensive equipment like camcorders.
HELLFIRE CAVES 2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith - Andy Ball
Recently converted to standard
DVD disc, this film has special meaning and memories for GHT because it contains our very first moving orb!!!
This was actually missed upon the first playback and wasn`t seen until the film was watched by Chris and Sally Weet, who pointed
it out. This film is also a constructive lesson on the things that hamper investigations which take place inside sites that
are open to the public and that have audio systems which play repeated tracks.
RECULVER 2006
DVD only available on mini-disc format
as used in camera
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith - Andy Ball
Another very wet investigation!!!
The weather was awful, but GHT battled on with the vigil and we were starting to get results... that is, until the arrival
of two men who disrupted the site and one of our experiments. We hope to put the footage from this vigil onto standard DVD
disc soon.
CANEWDON & PAGLESHAM
2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith
SPECIAL GUESTS:
Lynne Thorpe
Special investigation of the two
churches at Canewdon and Paglesham prior to a future visit by the GHT full team. Colin and Lynne meet the "Justice of the
Peace" spirit at Paglesham for the first time.
DUNWICH 2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
SPECIAL GUEST:
Chris Weet
The first sections of this film
show what a glorious, sunny and warm day it was at Dunwich, making for one of the best investigations we`ve held outdoors
after Pluckley. With a full moon at night, the camcorder`s NightVision really came into its own and this DVD is a really great
introduction to GHT and the vigils we conduct.
PLUCKLEY 3 - THE RETURN
2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
SPECIAL GUESTS:
East Kent Paranormal Group
Lynne Thorpe
GHT combined with another team
and another guest for a fabulous night at Pluckley. Early section shows some of the locations during daylight which is essential
for understanding the layout during the night. The action shifts to NightVision to round-off the vigil. The main highlights
here are watching Andy find out he is to be a Medium, and for the jovial banter between the team and the guests, especially
in the last part inside the porch. Well worth watching!!!
DATCHWORTH 2006
DVD available (standard disc) includes
Saffron Walden Outdoor footage
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
Oh dear.... Datchworth...!!!
Although we all were really looking forward to this hop across the county boundary into Hertfordshire, our expectations
took one blow after the next as site upon site was slowly ticked-off the list due to lack of parking or activity. To cap it
all, local hostility ended the vigil early when two Churchwardens asked us to leave... DISC INCLUDES SAFFRON WALDEN
(OUTDOOR) VIGIL.
SAFFRON WALDEN (OUTDOOR)
2006
DVD available (standard disc) includes
Datchworth footage
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
Used as a test to see if several
town sites would be suitable for a vigil. The footage is completely shot on NightVision. DISC INCLUDES DATCHWORTH VIGIL.
ALRESFORD - PT1 2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith - Andy Ball
SPECIAL GUEST:
Lynne Thorpe
A great vigil, a personal fave
of Colin`s... this one involves Lynne Thorpe again and features some daytime and night footage. For once, Colin actually
steps out from behind the camera for the circle at the end of the film. The camcorder is set up on a tripod and left running
until its disc was either full or the battery had expired. The circle also provides alot of the film`s comedic content and
is famous for a very special moment for Andy, caught on camera...!
EPPING FOREST 2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Lynne Thorpe - East
Kent Paranormal Group
Not strictly a GHT vigil - Colin
was invited along to this investigation to help out and make up the numbers. Although a short film, there is plenty of information
coming out from the Mediums and its very interesting to listen too. This was shot completely on NightVision.
KNIGHTON GORGES 2006
DVD only available on mini-disc format
as used in camera
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith
Again, the footage is part of the
holiday DVD disc shot during the week. We hope to separate this like the previous footage from the earlier visit. The two
sets of film will be put on one standard DVD disc.
HADSTOCK & BARTLOW
2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
SPECIAL GUESTS:
Chris Weet - Pete Beale
The film which introduces Pete
to the GHT and was his appraisal. This visits three sites which nothing much in a spiritual sense was known about and therefore
it was unknown if anything would come from doing these places. How wrong we were... Almost from the start we were getting
results and the team feel that these places are worthy of another vigil in the near future.
HADLEIGH & CANEWDON
2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Andy Ball - Pete
Beale
SPECIAL GUESTS:
Dave Wood - Emma Lonton - Lynne
Thorpe
Shot from start to finish in NightVision.
A return to Hadleigh Castle was combined with Canewdon Church and the small church at Paglesham. There is a wealth of names
and info coming from both Andy and Lynne, plus Pete (now a full member). Also featuring the appraisal of both Dave and Emma
prior to acceptence into GHT.
ALRESFORD - PT2 2006
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball - Pete Beale - Dave Wood - Emma Lonton
SPECIAL GUEST:
Chris Weet
After the planned vigil to Dover
Tunnels was scrapped, GHT went back to the site of an earlier Summer vigil to take its new members. Filmed in NightVision,
You see the ruins, the haunted field and this time, the lane... Of note it should be recorded that another team of people was
filming here during our vigil and you can just hear this in the background on our footage.
CAISTER ST EDMUND
2007
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball - Dave Wood - Emma Lonton
SPECIAL GUEST:
Chris Weet
A bitterly cold outdoor
vigil... (we must be mad!!!) which was filmed in NightVision. An added complication was the enginneering work going on a short
distance away on the railway line. You can see the worklights in the film!! The site was chosen by Liz Smith because
it had always appealed to her... it proved to be certainly active and surprised everyone who attended!.
SAFFRON WALDEN (INDOOR)
CROSS KEYS HOTEL 2007
DVD available (standard disc) - 2 DISC
SET
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Denise
Smith - Andy Ball - Pete Beale - Dave Wood - Emma Lonton
SPECIAL GUEST:
Chris Weet
Perhaps our most ambitious project
to date!!! This 2 Disc set covers the all-night vigil held at the hotel after our original Epping Forest investigation
fell through. The main reason to be excited about this film is the three definate moving orbs we have caught on camera. We
had a full team for this vigil and we also were given permission to go up into the attic level as well. A full copy of this
footage was given to the owner of the Hotel, along with a CD with still pictures on it and a full write-up of the report,
as seen on the Report page on here. The owner has asked us to return again as well....!
PLUCKLEY 4: ASTRAL
RETURN 2007
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball - Pete Beale - Dave Wood - Emma Lonton
SPECIAL GUESTS:
Chris Weet - James
GHT original members just had to
take the new guys down to Pluckley. This vigil was brought forward replacing Reculver Pt.2 which was put further back. The
footage returns to part daytime, part night which is useful for getting to grips with the various Pluckley locations. Another
trip within 2007 is planned for the 14th August - a date which has real meaning for the Pluckley and Little Chart area, with
an impact which can still be seen today.
CLARE CASTLE / TILTY ABBEY
/ DEBDEN 2007
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball - Dave Wood - Emma Lonton
SPECIAL GUESTS:
None
Although the Clare Castle
part was a last minute change of location, this DVD has given us some wonderful moving orbs at Tilty in a pillbox, and it
should be noted (as seen on the film credits) that over half the film footage was shot by Liz Smith and not Colin all the
way through. Well done to Liz..!!
ROCHFORD (SPECIALINVESTIGATION)
2007
DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith
SPECIAL GUESTS:
The SPIRITUAL INVESTIGATIONS Team

They joined the recently formed team headed by Lynne Thorpe.
RECULVER & STONE CHAPEL

DVD available (standard disc)
INVESTIGATION TEAM:
Colin Smith - Liz Smith - Andy
Ball
SPECIAL GUESTS:

GHT goes to Reculver for a second
visit, but once again the weather was appalling. The team did manage to stop-off at the small ruined chapel at Stone-by-Faversham
this time though.
