PARANORMAL INVESTIGATIONS AT THE JAMAICA INN
Did you know that we have our own residential paranormal team? Established in 2015, they have a wealth of knowledge and experience in the field of paranormal investigation. Combined with gathering evidence and researching the history of this fantastic coaching inn, you are sure to be in excellent hands during your evening of investigation.
The only way that you can investigate this famous smuggling inn is to join us for a public paranormal investigation or to book the inn for a private hire; both options are listed on this page.
PUBLIC NIGHTS
Our public paranormal investigation nights include a delicious two-course meal. The evening starts at 7pm and finishes between 2am - 2.30am and costs £85 per person.
We only allow over 18's on our events.
What can you expect on one of our nights?
Our paranormal team are paranormal investigators themselves, with decades of experience in the paranormal field. Through their expertise they have tailor-made these nights to ensure that you get the most out of your time here.
They are not an entertainment company, you become the paranormal detectives for the night. With their guidance, they will show you different methods of investigating, how to be rational, and debunk whilst also being realistic about expectations.
Being investigators they understand the importance of laughter, and over the years they have discovered that our best nights is when everyone is engaging, and puts in the effort to interact with out spirits.
Why not book to stay overnight in one of our famously haunted rooms, if you dare, just ask to book rooms 3, 4, 5, or 6. You will receive a discounted rate due to these rooms needing to be made available for the evening's event until approximately 1.30am.
If you are not brave enough to stay in one of the rooms listed above, we have plenty of other spacious rooms that you can book to stay overnight. If you book an overnight stay at the inn, you will receive a discount on the cost of the investigation.
