My family and I lived at a property called Gladstone villa in the former mining town of Bargoed which is in the Caerphilly county borough of the South Wales valleys.
From 1969 to 1978 we experienced activity that defied rational explanation such as very mild poltergeist activity like lights going off and on and the television, we also witnessed electrical cables being pulled by unseen forces and my grandfather Bill once claimed to have had a glass bottle thrown towards him, ....missing him by inches as he entered the bedroom !!
There was also the occasional sighting but this was very rare indeed, so rare in fact that in all the years we were there I never actually saw it, but my mother Caroline saw it on at least two occasions.
One night she told us she saw the full solid figure of a monk standing close to the doorway, she later described as a monk with typical brown habit complete with hood over the head, so she didn't see the face !!
We heard footsteps in the main bedroom which would occur every evening, sometimes during the day when we'd all be downstairs watching television, one of us would turn the volume down to hear it more clearly as it walked slowly above us and my grandfather Bill would point to the ceiling just to try and make it where the noise was coming from.
For nine years solid, my family, our friends and I heard things that left us in no doubt that Gladstone villa was indeed haunted, in fact, this property actually convinced a skeptic and a non believer so this place is well worth looking into and really does need to be documented !
We lived relatively normal lives as the activity wasn't going on all the time so it wasn't quite as dramatic or spectacular as what you might see in films that are said to be based on true events.
What I have said here is true, and I wouldn't share this if I couldn't possibly back it up or if it couldn't be verified by a thorough research, which is what I did many years later after leaving Gladstone villa in the Summer of 1978, the place has quite a history.
I challenge any hardened skeptic and firm non believers to stay at the property and I can assure them that that will indeed question their beliefs, of that I have no doubt what so ever !! as a matter of fact, I'm quite certain, 100% positive. For a much more detailed account of what we experienced there you can find it by searching : '' THE GHOST OF GLADSTONE VILLA''. A genuine case that really did happen to me, our family and our friends, I am very sincere in what I say. Thank you.
