Ghosts in the Pub

May 25, 2020 | Views: 1,190

A student of mine, Shirley Tan, sent me this video below. It’s a video that shows a ghost causing a bit of mischief… the footage shows a pint glass mysteriously moving off the table. It was captured on CCTV at the New Inn in Gloucester, which has a reputation for hauntings.

People’s reaction to ghost stories are always the same: some are fascinated, some are scared, some may make fun of their existence… and some don’t believe in them at all! Regardless of people’s reactions, from time to time… here and there… unexplainable ghostly happenings do occur.

When we hear about ghosts or if we do happen to encounter one, we have to remember that it is not fun or fascinating to be a ghost. Ghosts suffer tremendously within the spirit realm. Anyone can be re-born as one, if you have created the causes for it to happen. It is not fun to be a lonely ghost seeking attention from the living or to suffer from constant thirst and hunger for hundreds of years. The main causes to take rebirth as a ghost is attachment to a place, idea, event, sorrow or item. Also miserliness. Ghosts can live for hundreds and sometimes thousands of years. They have different personalities/powers just like any other sentient being in the Universe.

Ghost at Gloucester pub pushes pint off table

A catalogue of unexplained activity at a Gloucester pub has prompted the Gloucester Active Paranormal Society to investigate.

A series of unexplained happenings have occurred at The New Inn in the space of a week (in May 2010), including the sound of ghostly footsteps, rattling doors and even a pint of beer mysteriously lifting itself off a table and on to the floor.

The building in Northgate Street is a bar and hotel, and dates back to the 14th Century. It was originally built to house pilgrims visiting the shrine of King Edward II at nearby Gloucester Cathedral, and is described as having the finest example of a medieval gallery in Britain.

Lyn Cinderey from the Gloucester Active Paranormal Society (GAPS) was in the bar at the time of the ‘moving pint’ incident, taking part in a pub quiz.

“The quiz night was absolutely amazing,” she said.

“There were a few people in the bar, and four people saw this glass – a full pint – just lift up and fall on the floor. The glass didn’t even break.

“The rest of us looked around and heard the thud. We just couldn’t believe it. It was right there in the middle of the quiz.

“I’ve been investigating this [reputedly haunted] building for a long time and I’ve never known it so active.

“Activity has risen since 1 February when new managers, Mark and Samantha, arrived. Their daughter has been talking to a young girl – there is reputedly a young spirit girl there.”

Lyn claims other strange happenings have happened recently.

“One of the bar staff has heard footsteps in the cellar when he’s been clearing up with nobody else there, and staff have also heard the exit door rattle in the restaurant.

“Another of the bar staff claims that when he’s been clearing up he’s felt a cold spot and he’s been chilled all over. It’s absolutely fantastic,” said Lyn.

On another occasion the pub managers’ pet has even been spooked.

“Samantha’s dog was eating his food in his bowl the other night and the bowl just turned itself over.

“The dog ran over to the other side of the room and just stared at his bowl and wouldn’t go near it the rest of the night.

“My friend also stayed there and she was watching TV when it suddenly went off.

“She went to look and the plug was half way out of the socket and yet it was firmly in before.”

There have also been reports of keys going missing.

Lyn Cinderey is now planning to do an overnight investigation, with a team of people from GAPS.

They will carry out temperature readings, use dictaphones to do EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) recordings, record anything that might be there with camcorders, and take pictures.

“We’ll hopefully get to the bottom of what exactly is going on,” said Lyn.

In general, there has been a fair amount of ghost footage taken in different pubs around the world. This seems to be a frequent phenomena and any ghostly phenomenon that the CCTV captures as well as the witness accounts are very convincing. Here’s one about a ghost caught on CCTV in Cumbria, UK (http://www.ghosttheory.com/2010/09/14/cctv-video-ghost-in-pub). And apart from the videos sent by Shirley, I have added more videos below… one of them is a 5-part video of a group of people investigating the existence of a ghost residing in a pub…

    Nearly everyone has had weird, scary experiences, things that happen in life that seem to defy any sort of rational explanation. Unexplained at times. For me I am not scare as long as I do not disturb them. In fact feel sad for them, will dedicate my prayers to them now since prayers can help them. Ghost and spirit haunting always seem to be up to mischief at times. Watched those videos……interesting when the mysterious and unexplained happens such as the ‘moving pint’ incident at the pub. Interesting sharing of ghost footage taken in different pubs around the world.
    Thank you for this sharing.

    This is spooky and I totally believe in this. Thank you for sharing this Rinpoche.

    As a Buddhist, we believe we take rebirth again and again but we don’t necessarily take rebirth in a human form. We might take rebirth in the 3 lower realms or 3 higher realms. In 3 lowers realms, spirit (ghost) is one of it.

    We will take rebirth as a spirit if we are too attached to certain things. For example, the house we live in. If we are so attached to it, when we die, we will not be able to let go. Thus, we will take rebirth as a spirit in order to continue to live inside the house and stuck here for hundreds or thousands of years!

    I am not surprised to see there is a spirit in the pub. This spirit might be very attached to this place. Maybe when the spirit was still a human, he/she liked to drink. So we better practice how to let go and not too attached to a person or material stuff.

  4. Stella Cheang on Jan 21, 2018 at 12:12 pm

    It is very interesting that the haunting at The New Inn is quite serious that people who were present at the moment witnessed paranormal sights. Unseen beings are part of almost every culture known on earth, being more feared in some than others. Therefore, it is amazing to see that people in the UK are not that fearsome of the unseen, as most of the people in the eastern culture don’t view the unseen beings as amusing.

  5. Samfoonheei on Jan 21, 2018 at 10:40 am

    Cultures all around the world believe in spirits that survive death to live in another realm. Ghosts are among the most widely believed of paranormal phenomenon. I do believe they do exist . Paranormal investigators has provided scientific proof that ghosts really exist in a number of cases. Interesting…….they has collected a great deal of evidence over the past decade. Through recorded CCTV as well as the eye witness accounts which are very convincing to be true.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing all the interesting videos.

  6. Calvin Aww on Nov 24, 2015 at 11:15 pm

    Thx Rinpoche /|\ for sharing this amazing article and videos.

  7. James Long on Sep 14, 2011 at 8:57 pm

    I remember visiting Wat Muang in Thailand with Rinpoche whereby there have a hell garden in which Rinpoche said if only we can see how they suffer as all the realm which spoken by Buddha do exist.

    10 second in hell realm will blow our mind and make us never be bad person again. Many of the spirit due to attachment, stayed at that area for hundreds and thousands year, sad or angry but basically suffer and no happiness.

    We have to be compassionate to ourselves by letting go and stop eating meat. Imagine we take rebirth in the hell, spirit realm…

  8. Ahimsa on Mar 24, 2011 at 7:13 am

    What kind of body does a ghost have? How can it interact with material phenomena?

    • David Lai on Feb 28, 2013 at 4:43 pm

      Well, its been 2 years and I am not sure if you would still see this comment but ghost do not have a physical body but I think most ghost do have telekinetic powers, which means they can effect the physical environment of our world with their mind. I would imagine that their powers would depend on how angry or the older the spirit, the more powerful it becomes. I say this based on the what has been said about spirits and it is usually the old and angry spirits that manifests the most spirit activity. I dunno. That’s just my guestimation about them.

  9. Paris on Mar 9, 2011 at 3:15 pm

    Thank you for sharing that perspective Rinpoche. It does help tremendously to contemplate their sufferings – it transforms our fear into compassion, so we practise harder and do something to help these beings instead of just being scared of them, or try to destroy them. I guess this goes for anybody we are “scared” of or have difficulty with.

    Some of the Thai horror movies show this aspect very well (e.g. Unborn or Shutter or Dark Waters) where you eventually find out how much suffering the spirit goes through. The fear instantly goes when you find out, and you feel so much sadness for them instead.

    We do have a lot to do to help everyone!

  10. David Lai on Mar 7, 2011 at 2:53 am

    I think Spirits are real and that they manifest a lot of activity as they are seeking attention. It is definitely no fun being a spirit because the Buddha identified it is a lower rebirth. It is lower state of existence because the suffering in the spirit realm is a lot more when compared to the human realm. Hence, they seek a lot of attention and I guess require even more acknowledgement of their existence simply because they suffer a lot more loneliness and attachment.

    Like people, spirits have various personalities and some are actually benevolent while others are harmful or mischievous. Whatever personalities they possess, one cannot deny their existence because too many cultures and people have too much proof and evidence of their existence.

    The Fourth Takpu, Pema Vajra Jampel Tenpai Ngodrub was a highly attained lama. He was also commonly known as Takpu Dorje Chang who had many authentic visions of the Buddhas. He had even received directly teachings from Buddhas. He had received direct visions of Tara herself. Tagpu Pemavajra had travelled to Tushita, the heavenly abode of Lama Tsongkhapa as requested by Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche where he received the complete cycle of teachings on Dorje Shugden. Tagpu Pemavajra was one such lama who was attained enough to receive these teachings for the benefit of others. He was instrumental in the development of the Dorje Shugden practice within the Gelug tradition. Wow he was able to astral travel to various pure lands and receive special teachings. Interesting biography of a great lama.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Amazing discovery a 2,000 year old Indian Buddhist document as it tell us how Buddhism took root in India. It’s the oldest Buddhist manuscripts yet discovered, dating from about the 1st century BCE to 3rd century CE. Found in the north-western outskirts of the Indian subcontinent an ancient Buddhist kindgom. The document, written on a birch bark scroll offers rare insight into the early history of Buddhism. Surviving manuscripts are rare only a few hundred are known to still exist. Understanding the history of the region helps us realize the significance of this scroll.

Manjushree Park, one of most natural, historic attactive park within Kathmandu valley. Fantastic well managed picnic spot one should visit and not to be missed when one is at Kathmandu Nepal. Visible 33 ft. high black stone carved Manjushree statue .Manjushri is one of the most important iconic figures in Mahayana Buddhism. The powerful image representing ever-present wisdom plus the sword of awareness to cut off all delusion. An interesting story behind this Kathmandu Valley where mythology and geology intertwine.

    According to Buddhist teaching, prostration manifests the spiritual growth, faith of a person. In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, prostration is an important element of practice. Traditionally, prostrations are more than a show of respect for Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. Making prostration is a basic part of our lives in Buddhism. They are a method to purify our mind, or the antidote for ego-clinging. One of the general benefits of prostration is that in the future we will achieve a good rebirth . Prostration is a very powerful activity that can clear away obscuration of our body, speech, and mind as well as clearing our past and present negative karma. A huge merits for anyone doing prostration with proper visualization as well as the proper motivation.
    Having seen practitioners doing prostration along the road at Lhasa and reading teachings on prostration on blogs had motivated me to do retreat on it. Its was during the MCO back in 2020, I did a prostration retreat then. Even though it took me a longer time somehow I have completed 100,150k prostrations . Now I am still continue to do but not as many prostration as before.
    Well even though this is an old post I would to congratulate those involved in the prostration retreat at that time. It’s a good that Kechara is have a teachings on prostration and retreat .
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    Religious freedom is one of the most fundamental of human rights. As religious freedom comes from the dignity of the human being. It allows different faiths and beliefs to flourish. It protects the rights of all religious groups and individuals. We must respect religious freedom and all religions must be tolerated. Without freedom of thought, there can be no such thing as wisdom. Respect for religious diversity is an essential element of any peaceful society. Offering of robes to Buddhist monks by the Muslim Mandalay Buddhist Monks is a very good example for everyone. Its such a wonderful way to foster religious harmony.

    Beautiful memes paints a thousand words . May these memes brings awareness to more people understanding the pain and sufferings of those Dorje Shungden’s practitoners all these years. Religious freedom should be allowed without discrimination and segregation just because of individual practice of faith. May His Holiness the Dalai Lama restore the harmony, peace and unity among all practitioners.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writers for these memes.

    Kalmykia, is a republic of Russia, located in the North Caucasus region of Southern Russia. This is the only region in Europe where Buddhism is the predominant religion. The republic is home to the Kalmyks, a people of Mongol origin who are primarily of Buddhist faith. Buddhism is considered to be one of Russia’s traditional religions and is legally a part of Russian historical heritage. The region has been home to many major world religions and ideologies. Tibetan Buddhism is the traditional and most popular religion among the Kalmyks. The Republic has many natural resources and wildlife over the centures. Amazingly the caspian steppes and semi-deserts have a favourable conditions for keeping sheep and cattle in pastures all year round. The land of Kalmykia has many natural resources with the hydrocarbon deposits of national significance, chemical raw materials and so forth.The culture and mentality of the Kalmyk people is rooted in the general Mongol and Oirat traditions. The historical, cultural and natural heritage of the Kalmyk people, their ancient traditions and folk crafts all contribute to the tourism development. It has attracted many tourists, the whole year through all due to its advantageous geographical position. With the area’s unique natural landmarks, specific ethnography and its historical and cultural environment, I hope I could visit this beautiful place someday.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Stella Cheang for this wonderful sharing.

    The Tian Shan mountains also known as the Mountains of Heaven is a large system of mountain ranges in Central Asia. The Tian Shan mountains are part of the Himalayan orogenic belt. One of the longest mountain ranges in Central Asia and the largest isolated east-west mountain range globally. This Tianshan mountains has been a key to the development and spread of human society and culture over thousands of years. Bands of smashed unique rock amid massive fault zones of Tian Shan are preserved to this days. The Tian Shan Mountains of Central Asia, with its varying unique landscapes, high passes, stunning lakes and the spectacular pyramid of Khan Tengri has attracted many locals and tourist in recent years. Picturesquely located on a cliff face overlooking a river valley are the ancient Thousand Buddha Caves. The discoveries of images of Buddha had proven that Buddhism existed in the AD’s. Amazing …looking at those pictures in this blog tells all.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this wonderful sharing.

Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

    6 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer

Dharma sharing by Hue before we proceeded with DS puja & Rinpoche Swift Return puja. Hue is one of the long time Kechara Penang members and he comes to puja regularly. He shared that he truly believes that Dorje Shugden and Rinpoche always there guiding him. He shared how sometimes DS will give him hints to avert troubles ahead or to alert him when he 'misbehaved'. Hope many will come to know more about this powerful Dharma Protector, Dorje Shugden aka DS. Having Dorje Shugden is like having a powerful ally that will protect us day and night. Just trust Him and have faith. Kechara Penang Study Group, 25/11/2023 by Jacinta.
