Spooky Snibston Hosts Paranormal Night

Those feeling adventurous can explore a creepy former colliery in the dark when Snibston Discovery Museum launches the first in a series of paranormal nights.

Jill Hibbert, local medium and experienced paranormal guide, will be on hand to take brave visitors around the museum on a search for the supernatural on the evening of Friday April 1st.

“I was surprised by what I picked up when I first visited Snibston,” she said. “I immediately realised there was a lot of residual energy there and I’m very much looking forward to what we discover on this night.”

Her late night tour, which also includes a séance in the Century Theatre, starts at 8pm and lasts for five hours. It will take in the museum's galleries, the former colliery, workshops and even its office blocks, which are not normally open to the public.

The evening is strictly limited to 15 people, so places should be booked early. Tickets cost £35 per person, include refreshments and are only available to those aged 18 or over.

David Sprason, Leicestershire County Council Cabinet Member for Adults and Communities, said: "Snibston can be pretty spooky late at night, and this spine-chilling tour should show visitors another side to this unique museum."
