Old Hope School sees paranormal researchers decend.

On the 100 year anniversary of the brutal deaths of 14 children by a crazed madman, named Alfred Grimes, sightings of ghost and strange cold spots have been widely reported.

Some report feeling cold hands grip their throats and find it hard to breathe.

100 years ago today the school caretaker, Alfred Grimes, was spurned by his love, school mistress Elsie  Thomas.

In a fit of range he strangled her whole class, then turned his attention on Elsie, strangling her with such ferocity her eyes popped out.Alfred hung himself near the school toilets shortly after.

Every year there is talk of sightings, although this year being the 100th anniversary of the grizzly deaths reports are expcetd to triple.
