30 East Drive looks like any normal council house here in Checkerfield but
00:06
actually lies a very spooky history. I've been speaking to locals about the
00:12
phenomenon the poltergeist that is known locally as FRED.
00:17
I've never seen anything or heard anything from outside but I have worked in there many years ago when it was supposed to be haunted
00:28
and she died. Is it poltergeist? Yeah, poltergeist. FRED.
00:34
and she said she got rid of it.
00:36
Right so whether anything is still going on in there, I don't know.
00:40
Do you believe in FRED?
00:42
Ummmm, I don't know.
00:46
Yeah.
00:48
And what were you doing working in there?
00:50
I was working on the council, you know, on the plaster.
00:54
So I was doing a job there.
00:56
Yeah.
00:58
And was it an unusual property?
01:02
No, not really. I don't really know anything about it.
01:08
I didn't know anything about it until the woman started telling me about it.
01:12
She started showing me wolf-baby clippings and that, you know.
