About this listen
One of the most violent and intense manifestations of paranormal activity witnessed in the UK for decades, the Birmingham Poltergeist case occurred during a single week in 2021 when real-life Ghostbuster and celebrity supernatural expert Lee Brickley began to investigate strange goings-on at a modest family home in Gravelly Hill, Erdington. From the moment Brickley arrived at the property, it was clear something was very, very wrong, and the seasoned ghost hunter knew he had to act fast. This book contains an entire eyewitness account of the terrifying events that would soon unravel.
From knives and cutlery flying around the kitchen to a scary-looking old photograph that just couldn't be destroyed, the family involved in this haunting were subjected to unimaginable levels of torment and cruelty at the hands of the otherworldly entities invading their lives. A mother and father with two young daughters who, through no fault of their own, became embroiled in a battle for their very souls against a malevolent killer from beyond the grave.
Reviews:
"This is hands down the most terrifying thing I've ever read." (Bill Brown, British Journalist)
"Lee did it again. You'll sleep with the lights on tonight." (John Lomas, Supernatural Magazine)
"I remember reading This House Is Haunted as a kid and being so scared I couldn't sleep. I'm an adult now, but this book had the same effect. Definitely buy it." (James Crane, Otherworldly Magazine)
