1 February 2008


Taking a trip into the deepest, darkest places, the Isle of Man has to offer, the world’s foremost ghost hunter Yvette Fielding and a selection of the best ghost busters from the cobbles of Coronation Street prepare to delve into the spooky unknown. Join Tupele Dorgu (Kelly Crabtree), Wendi Peters (formerly Cilla Battersyby-Brown), Jack P Shepherd (David Platt), Katherine Kelly (Becky Grainger), Kym Ryder (Michelle Connor) and their ghost hunting guide as they prepare to face their most frightening fears yet. Ghost Hunting With…Coronation Street is brand new and exclusive to ITV2, Monday 18 February at 9pm.

This ghostbusting extravaganza takes the Coronation Street stars on the journey of a life time. The first stop is the Gaiety Theatre which dates back to 1899. Paranormal activity here is rife and there have been repeated sightings of a lady in black that sits in the auditorium: she is said to have a particular penchant for musicals. At Yvette’s request the theatre is immersed in darkness and the Corrie team set out to search for the lady. However, it is not until Yvette suggests a séance on the main stage that the mood within the theatre significantly changes.

The next location is Milntown House, which dates back to the 16th Century and is considered to be the Isle’s most haunted residence. The Christian family has lived at the manor house for over 600 years and mysterious figures, likely to be former Christian residents, are said to roam the rooms and corridors. One resident has even reported that bed sheets have been pulled from them whilst they were sleeping.

The last supernatural site for the Coronation Street cast is an ancient watermill. Altogether, it’s a night of bizarre experiences and eerie encounters for our celebrity team.

Join ITV2 this winter as some of the nation’s most loved soap stars embark upon a ghostbusting trip of a lifetime. Will the Corrie kids manage to spend an entire night at the chosen locations with Yvette? ITV2 dares you to tune in to find out.

What they said

Before the ghost hunt:

Jack: I would want something to happen. I would want some physical activity to take place. But if it didn’t I would be really disappointed and if it did I would be terrified as well.

Tupele: I want to be able to say that it was unexplainable, but I am still a bit of a sceptic, because nothing has ever really happened to me before. I need to have proof.

Kym: I will be so scared. I will probably really embarrass myself.

Katherine: I would like to think I will be quite brave, but you just don’t know because I have got a vivid imagination. It will be dark and I have heard the stories, so I think I will be quite jumpy.

Wendi: Maybe I am a bit of a thrill seeker? Whether there is or there isn’t anything out there, I quite like being scared. I am a bit of a control freak and that could be something that might worry me, because everything is going to be out of my control tonight.


After the ghost hunt:

Tupele: I think the most interesting thing was the séance we did. Kym did get quite upset and it wasn’t nice to see someone so overcome with emotions like that, especially when it is quite unexplained.

Kym: It has been unbelievable for me. I suddenly became completely overcome with emotion, on two or three occasions. I didn’t feel scared in any way though, I just felt really emotional and I wasn’t able to hold it back for some reason.

Jack: The theatre for me had more of a pulse about it, but Katherine liked the stately home.

Katherine: I just knew that the minute I walked into the theatre that it wasn’t going to be scary for me. I walked in and I just felt so happy to be there.

Jack: Because you wanted something really scary to happen.

Katherine: And when I think back to the watermill place, we were glad not to get anything and we didn’t push it.

Jack: If we didn’t get anything there it was fine. We were so scared and so we just huddled together and got into the foetal position. Everybody was really glad to get out.

Kym: All I know is that whatever happened was very odd for me and I am a believer, because primarily I get freaked out even by my own shadow.
