Passion chiller!
Mum forced to quit bedroom after midnight romps with saucy spook.
by Angus Young, News Reporter.
Spooked Kim Puckering has fled her bedroom after a night of passion – with a poltergeist! The 30-year-old is convinced the frisky phantom made love to her before turning her east Hull council semi into a haunted house. And the same ghost has also reportedly romped with a neighbour. In both cases, the two women dreamt they were having sex with a mysterious old man with long grey hair, yet neither had spoken to the other before sharing their secret. Kim said: “It was exactly the same sensation as the real thing. When I woke up even the bed was rocking.”
The single mum-of-five had only recently moved into the house in Shoreditch Close, Ings Road estate, and at first dismissed her experience as a dream. But the strange things started happening around the house and her children began talking about seeing an old man upstairs. Eventually she spoke to her neighbour for the first time and asked if she had experienced any ghostly goings-on. “I told her about my dream and she said she had had exactly the same dream four times. It was then that I became convinced it wasn’t a dream but something else,” said Kim.
For the last three months Kim has been sleeping on the sofa because she is too terrified to go back to her bedroom. Now she has applied to Kingston upon Hull City Council for a move – just like her next door neighbour who moved out recently. “The kids have seen him walking through walls and he has even patted my youngest son’s bottom once. He’s friendly to them but I just want to get away from the place,” said Kim. She believes the ghost is behind a series of unexplained incidents, including light fittings unscrewing themselves, curtains rolling up and a ball of mysterious static descending from the ceiling.
Hull-based energy healer Andrew Brown, who has visited the house, said: “I’ve no doubt it is a poltergeist. There was a very strong presence of energy in the bedroom which had badly affected the whole house. It was coming through from next door and it was certainly intense.” Mr Brown said he believed the energy probably came from someone who had previously lived in the house. “Kim is picking up that energy. Her experience in bed is an increasingly common one where the energy is attempting to make contact but not a lot of people will ever admit to it.”
