Terrified British Mother Calling on Exorcist to Address "Ghostly Goings-on."

Shaken Holly Taylor is a 22 year-old student midwife with a 2 year-old daughter. She claims to have experienced a terrifying series of events, and is asking for the services of an exorcist to make sure that whatever is in the apartment stays at the apartment.

Others have reportedly witnessed "ghostly goings-on" as well. The building stands on the site of the former Pemberton Police Station in Ormskirk Road, which had a reputation for being haunted.

An officer who used to work there confirmed the station was notorious for unexplained footsteps and doors banging, and that the culprit was believed to be the ghost of an inspector who hanged himself in a cell.

There was one officer at the time who refused to be at the station on his own, he said.

The officer, who declined to be named, added: "Every time there was an unexplained noise around the place, everyone would say 'it's Bert the ghost again.'"

A gentleman living down the corridor from Holly's apartment says he has heard footsteps while there's no-one there. "I've heard about the hanged policeman, but also about a child who might have died even before it was a police station."

In the last four months Holly has experienced:

• Plates flying off the kitchen work surface and smashing on the floor
• Ornaments and other objects being moved around or knocked over while she is out
• Footsteps and the front door being opened despite her having the only key
• All the flat's lights being switched back on after she has gone to bed
• The electric smoke alarm going off randomly
• Drawers in Willow's bedroom being opened and emptied while the tot sleeps.

Holly said, "I love this place and I don't want to move, but something needs to be done to give me peace. It is scary what is going on but I also feel like my privacy is being invaded."

"I have spoken to several people," she said. "Some have experienced or heard of things happening here when it was the police station. The lady in the next flat said that a cup had flown at her out of a cupboard once but she had tried to convince herself that it was some kind of accident."Sources:
