Museum of haunted objects set to open in the UK
A paranormal researcher in England has created a rather remarkable museum that will soon be open to the public.
The Haunted Antiques Paranormal Research Centre, located in the town of Hinkley, is the brainchild of Neil Packer, who has been collecting potentially possessed items of all shapes and sizes over the last year or so.
Having now netted in excess of 50 such objects, the paranormal enthusiast decided that it was time to put the collection on display and provide people with the chance to personally handle the spooky items.
Set to open this coming weekend, Packer encourages potential guests of the museum to pick up these different pieces and, if they can sense anything unusual about them, record those feelings with the staff at the center.
Beyond the thrill of potentially interacting with a spirit living inside of a creepy doll or painting, he stresses that the center will also serve as a meeting place for anyone looking to learn about or discuss the paranormal with like-minded fellow travelers.
And, appropriately enough, the museum just so happens to be located in a building that paranormal researchers in Hinkley believe to be haunted.
When the building is not being visited by the public, Packer plans on performing various tests on the haunted objects, streamed live on Facebook, in an attempt to pick up any paranormal activity emanating from them.
We're guessing that the haunted antiques research center is now the top of every kid in England's wish list when it comes to the otherwise-torturous school field trip to a museum.
