A PARANORMAL investigation team could be set to visit a Stockton Heath wine bar and health spa after a series of 'ghoulish incidents' on the weekend.

CCTV footage showing what appears to be a murky figure in DWL Stockton Heath's venue has gripped social media, with the original post on the bar's Facebook page having been viewed more than 109,000 times.

The 37-second clip from the early hours of Saturday morning has also been shared across the globe in countries including America and Russia.

Simon Ellison, who helped construct the site after his dad took it over from Aries, admits he was 'taken aback' by the footage but believes the venue has been plagued by strange occurrences since opening at Easter.

Although admitting elements of the footage may be dramatised, Mr Ellison insists something is not quite right about the building.

"At the beginning we were angry because the footage had been leaked," he added.

"It is a very strange thing and some of the other incidents going on in the footage are not fake – strange things have been happening in that place.

"We have had water splashing on a camera, banging coming from a cupboard due to pipes even though we have not done anything to the pipes and the tap in the male toilets moves itself.

"It is a dark and dingy place and it really spooks me out."

Despite being based in Denmark, memories of frightful experiences remain with Mr Ellison but help could be on its way.

"About a month ago I was painting the floor and was there until about 2am but just could not bear it and I am not a person to be scared," he added.

"I am not sure who got the footage, maybe it was a member of staff who wants help.

"A professional has told me if it is real then this is the best footage of all time and they want to set up a ghost camera here.

"A paranormal team is also interested in coming here with equipment.

"Another strange thing is that gaps have disappeared in the video scroll bar."

Crown Removals has responded to the video of the 'ghost' – it features somebody running with a white sheet over their head.

The video has had more than 1,600 views.
