Haunting of the Real Life Torture Mansion | Paranormal Investigation

Elliot & Joe, two ghost hunters from the south of England travel up to North Staffordshire to visit this incredible castle built high up on a hill. Why are you talking in 3rd person? No idea, anyway we decided to conduct our own paranormal investigation in the haunting Rudyard Lake castle aka Cliffe Park Hall after seeing a few other ghost hunting channels investigate there and capture some compelling evidence.

Other teams stomp around to the point where I feel they miss chances to allow us viewers to come along ( so to speak ). But not you guys. We're right there with you for the experience and you investigate the silence. Bring more.

[@careyjones98]

I totally agree it's like the other teams hate silence, even though it is your biggest ally on an investigation!!!

[@moiram3135]

Once again, The Joe & Elliot Show hasn't let us down.

[@Beadledom2024]

I love how y'all can tell each other to be quiet and the other one takes no offense and shuts up immediately. THAT is bond, trust, and same mission goals.

[@ShainaDawson]

it's sad how vandals have ruined that home in just the past year. I've seen a few groups go there but it's just tore apart even more now. glad you got to investigate it before there was nothing left to see inside

[@GhostTheory]

Yes it's pointless and pathetic and a real pet hate. Grrr lol 😆

[@celticwolfee]

Elliot you are my hero going down that tiny hole. Found you guys recently and you are now my favourite ghost hunters. 😊

[@donnaj4678]

I am with you on that, my favourites as well.. love the honesty Ghost Theory bring ❤️

[@GhostTheory]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@GhostTheory]

[@Urb_Ex_Vix]

Such a sad story behind this place... and those footsteps you heard were nothing short of chilling! Great vid lads 😁

[@GhostTheory]

Yeah absoloutely, great to see you and hope you are well 👍 🙏

[@rachelmayes298]

I still can’t believe I only found you by chance a week or so ago. You are the BEST channel on KZbin, there isn’t one video where you don’t have me in stitches laughing, and just like The Ouija Brothers and Ghost Tech you are genuine. Looking forward to seeing this investigation. Thank you 💖😊💖

[@kailaayling9989]

well said hun x

[@GhostTheory]

Well we won't argue with that haha thanks so much :D

[@BeachBum44]

Pretty much my comment too❤

[@JohnDoe-px4ko]

Demon: “ Oh, eff! They asked my name - if I tell them, they’ll have power over me. I’ll just give them the first name that comes into my head ….Janet”

[@alyssaj.9164]

Miss Jackson if you're nasty 😏

[@patricialamb3205]

So glad Elliot got out of the hole😱 thought that place was going to gain another ghostie 👻.Another banger video .Joe"my dog stepped on a bee" 😂😂🐝🐝

[@Domcas74]

The fact you two aren’t freaking out just coz a bat is flying around is making me love you even more

[@GhostTheory]

Hahaha we could do for comedic effect lol 😆 😂

[@notagain2806]

Loving the AH bee reference! 🐝 #JusticeforJohnny

[@aa-dn2hv]

Ghosts, eyebrows and 2 bff's having a blast 🙌 Can it get any better?! I think def not! 😂👏

[@GhostTheory]

:D

[@thistleroots5151]

Really interesting investigation. The Amber Heard reference about took me out, lol. Y’all are so great. Hilarious, silly, but respectful of spaces and spirits. And just honest about sounds and such. Really enjoyed it.

[@Domcas74]

My dog stepped on a bee Ghost Theory is crazy

[@eflyz4880]

My dog stepped on a bee. Omg I’m dying laughing. Me and my kids have been saying that week, dur face included.

[@GhostTheory]

Can't forget the face 😂😂

[@GhostsOnTrent]

Missed the premiere guys! Great video, love this place, in the bedroom we had some of the most intelligent responses from the rempod we've ever had, we actually felt like we were communicating with Brian. We returned with Shadow Hunters and Moxley and the responses on the stairs were incredible The whistling on the staircase was so clear, great location and glad you guys have been to witness it 1st hand and those footsteps are so clear 😱 it never disappoints.

[@GhostTheory]

Yeah we did actually hear a whistle too while we were there but didn’t get on camera 🙃 such a cool place, would go there more often if we lived closer 😅

[@TFord910]

🤣🤣🤣 A bat named Goose whose talents include flying... you two arguing like you've been married for 1,000 years (you go down first, I'll get stuck so YOU go down there first, but if you get stuck I won't be able to get out...😂😂😂)... you've outdone yourselves, Joe and Not Joe! Funny af! And the ghostly noises and EVPs were good too! 👍🏽 🤪🤣🤣 Not Joe: It's a room built to hide things... Me: Things, bodies, Not Joes...😁😏

[@peggywalker4081]

What a magnificent building! Another awesome video guys. This is quickly becoming my favorite channel on KZbin. Whenever I have some free time I use it to seek out another of your videos I absolutely love watching you two. You did a great job on this one I loved it from beginning to end! 💙

[@shirleythompson2068]

My dog stepped on a bee 🐝 🤣😂🤣😂🤣👏👏👏👍

[@GhostTheory]

Haha 😂😂

[@sandyhickey8236]

I love the humour you two put into investigating. I'd much rather see this kind of investigating that the fake stuff others put out there

[@Harassed247]

I love the comments about wearing the headphones lol.. last weeks comments was funny too. You’re both nuts, you do know that right!😂. Brilliant episode guys.. well done

[@dianesmith3624]

Sorry I missed the premiere ... but just watched your investigation... bloody love the humour you bring lol 😆 & your content is fantastic .... look forward to your next paranormal investigation x

[@gaynor3976]

I love you two you're hilarious, can always guarantee a laugh. Good invest even though it seemed quiet. 👍 👍 👍

[@patricialamb3205]

My two favorite spirit disturbers.👻 L👀king forward to this 😱😬♥️🇨🇦

[@rosezelecki1756]

I totally read that wrong! 🤣🤣

[@nick-il5oj]

The mouth gesture closeups on Joe are basically worth all the trouble as far as I'm concerned. F_-^ing priceless. Thanks for all your hard work, boys.

[@GhostTheory]

Thanks a lot 🙏

[@Helen-sound]

Can I make a wee suggestion about your background music . If you pan it to the far left and right it won’t override the dialogue which will then be in the middle and pop out in your mix . What an amazing staircase ! How old is the building . It looks like it has lots of different style periods maybe that’s to do with general decorating throughout its years . It’s nice that we hear the bangs and rattles that you are hearing . I hope David white has some regrets about his vandalism. He’s definitely getting a lot of coverage and I hope his friends call him out on it .

[@threespiresparanormal]

Possibly the best one yet!! Nice job lads...love it 👏👏👍👍

[@paranormalendeavors]

I rewatched this, as i do some of my favorites, and your openers are comically epic!!! How beautiful this place is. I could only imagine it in its glory long before the most horrifically sad demise of its proprietary owner looked. The UK is riddled in such an amazing history. Some day, when my channel ( as I have JUST created it not 2 weeks ago) grows, I have huge plans to visit

[@GLING17]

It's so nice that you ask the spirits things about their former lives, such as what is a favorite memory. I have watched literally hundreds of these investigations and I don't recall anyone else ever asking such questions. A very nice change of pace in my opinion, instead of the same old standard questions. You both show such kindness and respect to the spirits and that speaks volumes about what good people you both are. Been watching a lot of your videos and these are observations of my own. I'm a very perceptive, observant person so I feel I'm spot on here! Cheers and stay safe! 😊❤

[@sarahshandylolly4870]

The word demon is scary enough but demon Janet!!! That's Terrifying 😱😱😂😂 fantastic video thanks guys 💕

[@rebeccabaker9178]

Good video. Dark and scary! And British.

[@jonathang9983]

25:59 You can hear a whistle?…..or bird song?I Interesting investigation. A proper paranormal one. Excellent. Thank you gentlemen.

[@faithbrenner9333]

Absolutely lost it when Joe referenced (thy name shall not be said) “my dog stepped on a bee😫” ! Keep up the amazing investigations. Stay safe and much love❤️❤️🫶🫶👻👻

[@abrown9269]

You guys crack me up so much!! I LOVE this channel!! I have a t shirt idea....on the front put a bat that says bloody goose and on the back Ghost Theory. 😂🤣 Thanks for another great one Joe and Not Joe! Stay safe ❤️

[@GhostTheory]

Haha yeah we should get on it!

[@marekpaul6110]

All of these Ghost Tube and similar apps are sold for "entertainment" purposes. How can spirits, some from hundreds of years ago, know how to interact with devices and software from this century. Your approach of calling out and listening is by far the most credible one. Thank you for a humours and informative video.

[@LoriCurl]

"Why is that window creepy"? 😂🤣😋 So sorry, I missed the premiere!! I had some unexpected guests, but I will make up for it now....Get back to you when I am done watching this!.

[@marinamartinez6886]

Good explore, I was really concerned Elliot wouldn't get out of that underground space. 👍👍👍

[@Thedeaconmusic]

Another great video to chill out to ,keep it spooky guys this was great 👍

I came across the 2 of you through another post & I’m very impressed! You 2 little poots are quite a pair & I absolutely enjoy experiencing the UK side. You work quite well together with a great chemistry. Keep it up as long as possible & keep loving what you’re doing!! Thank you! From, Texas, USA

[@BeachBum44]

I started watching you guys this week. After seeing you a couple of times on another channel. You guys are a riot. You make me laugh all the time and I love how honest your humor is with each other. Keep bringing the great content. I love your style❤

[@debbiehollis5711]

Well that was so funny. I could imagine Janet the demon tottering about in her high heels and Brian helping her down the ladder into the foundations .You left very quickly ,odd ending .Thanking you anyway .More please .

[@DorsetParanormalInvestigators]

We can't wait to watch, reminder is set 👍🏻

[@joyceemons1752]

Looks pretty spookalishious!! 😊👻

[@carenradovanovic970]

Joe Mimicking Amber Heard " My dog stepped on a bee" 😂😂😂😂☠️☠️☠️☠️ that was great... Was I the only one that caught that ? 🤨

[@SlipSlidinAway]

Another great video. Much love to you fellas❣

[@janetdupont9342]

I laughed my socks off when the name Janet came up - I’m not a demon though! Great investigation guys!

[@LoriCurl]

So happy to see you use GhostTube! Such an awesome app.!! And that recorder is very interesting too. SO, when your camera dies quickly, or turns off, try removing the battery, then replacing with the same one you just pulled. If it turns on, paranormal. If not, well, your sol!! I have seen it happen a whole lot. Them spirits can be real stinkers!! Another creepy chapter in Ghost Theory history! Great job guys! Loved it!!

[@GhostTheory]

We actually have a good idea to test a load of methods that we will release soon 😉

[@megbaines2597]

My dog stepped on a bee 🐝 . . . 🤣🤣

[@GhostTheory]

😂😂

[@staffordshireparanormal]

Fantastic video both at a brilliant location we we're there tonight ourselves and it didn't disappoint. You caught some incredible evidence and showed parts of it that we've never seen before the sink room and that squeeze into the basement was epic, no way I'd fit lol. Excellent work as always, we can't wait for the next one 👍👍👍

[@amandagoodman9560]

nice one guys ,loved it ,my dog stepped on a bee LOL X

[@GhostTheory]

Lol 😆 🤣 😂

[@billcarson4566]

"Demon. Your name is demon" Elliott looks around nervously. I'm laughing so hard now.

[@GhostTheory]

Lol 😆 🤣 😂

[@marieandersson2953]

What a fortune when I found you on youtube!!! Can´t understand why ppl demolish everything, wondering what they would say if we demolishing their homes.... Hugs to you guys - happy fan 🥰🤩

[@Cararona]

Another brilliant upload. Thank you. 👏😍

[@GhostTheory]

Thank you too!

[@ibanut]

Oh, Elliott! Scared me so much going down that hole!

[@marie_lockwood1106]

Well thank god this just appeared in my notifications because for a second there I was convinced Joe’s toenail appointment had won🦶🤢

[@GhostTheory]

Hahaha it was very close, got back just in time 😂😂😂

[@rachelwilliamson3692]

[@Animal57]

Crying booth🤣🤣...Love your work guys👍

[@kerrieallen6808]

you guys are great,your funny quips make me laugh,looking forward to another great adventure

[@GhostTheory]

Thank you very much 😀 😊

[@ruvoodoo155]

At 13:05 you can here "Hmm". It's when you're talking about the previous voice you heard. It almost sounds like a male voice agreeing with you. It's underneath what you're saying if that makes any sense and doesn't sound like either of your voices. Maybe it was? Maybe not?

[@GhostTheory]

Yeah strange not too sure :/

[@karenm3822]

I can't believe how much this property has deteriorated it's such a crying shame 😞

[@ParanormalExplorers]

Class investigation lads. That hole in floor is creepy. Some good activity. the demon Janet haha that tickled me lol. Hope ya both well.

[@GhostTheory]

Good old ghosttube eh? haha.. were all good cheers you too :)

[@rastaralph7154]

That underground room looks like either a dungeon or a place to store all the gold and has been blocked up by a brick wall 🧱 probably to stop anyone stealing it. Would be interesting to see what lies behind it ❤️💛💚

[@LeighAntique]

Great episode guys. Love your explores. Thank you 😊

[@lindamccaughey6669]

That was fantastic thanks. Just love your humour. That castle is fantastic, could be done up nicely.. thanks for taking me along.. please stay safe and take care

[@jaytay8637]

I would live there in a heartbeat. Beautiful. The brave man who lived there sounds like a retired James Bond, wonder if he would let me share his home ?

[@shel.b.1090]

Omg, love island does ghost hunting!, nearly spat my tea out. You too are fab. On a serious note it is such a shame that these beautiful buildings are left to rot and idiots just use them for vandalising!!! Makes me so mad. Xxx

[@GhostTheory]

This place is too nice to be vandalised, really hope those people stay away. 🙏

[@kailaayling9989]

karma will visit the attackers so so sad .......poor man i think his ghost would return to his home? such a beautiful place x

[@GhostTheory]

They were imprisoned for aggravated burglary I believe

@@GhostTheory 🙂🙃

[@paulstewart3847]

Hey guys not sure if it's the way the sound transfers between the mic's on your camera's but @ 16:48 to 16:50 it sounds like voices can be heard off in a room away from you both

[@GhostTheory]

Hmmm strange..thanks for letting us know 😀 😍

[@yougotredonyou5584]

Excellentay !!👻

Tragic history. Great video guys

i had a very bad day but my Ghost Theory time just makes me feel better ❤❤thanks guys for laughs

[@momthrazilla13]

Thanks so much for your reply on Ghosts on Trents comment section. I never leave comments, but, for some reason something compelled me to do so this time. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that this episode is what inspired me to say it was like watching, "Monty Python Goes Ghosthunting." Starting around 39.23, when Elliott looked down the hole & asked if there was anyone down there that wanted to kill him & Joe replied with a high-pitched, silly voice, "YES...I mean....NO" I could not stop laughing. It immediately made me think of the type of humor that I always enjoyed in the Monty Python movies & sketches. I'd watch you guys even if you never captured anything paranormal, just for the smiles. 😄

[@traceykitchin9722]

Hi guys, l know that ive probably said this before but you 2 are so bloody funny and what other paranormal team gives us such bloody great entertainment. And your professional and serious at the right times, cheers Tracey from Australia xo

[@donnaj4678]

That was scary watching you go thru that hole Elliot, thought for sure you would get stuck!

[@susiehiggins87]

Eerilie funny with you two. Investigating with humour👌 Those footsteps were very clear. You two nervous makes me nervous. However, I think Demon Janet was hilarious 😂 More vids please.

[@suzyd3471]

Ooooooh can't wait. I'll have wait till tomorrow to watch I'm on the other side of the world.

[@cockneyginger]

What a sad story. Just wondering how Brian managed to break a glass mirror with his teeth though!! Elliott, you are a star going down into that hole, also wondering why people would go into a hole and spray the walls?!! do I wonder a lot? .

[@GhostTheory]

Nah you wonder as much as us. Mostly about the stupidity of some people lol 😆

[@kevindurcan7072]

Good to see the equipment too and descriptions on how the tech works , Elliot you are a hero going into that hole looked like something out of the Ring ! Nooooo way would you get me doing that you guys are the best Brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@traceybosson8861]

I live near here it's lovely at Rudyard

[@RobDog-23]

That was a good one guys! Too bad about Elliot's demise in the chiseled-out hole of doom. 😂😆 He was a brave lad! 😉 You definitely caught some sounds there, and the place did look quite creepy. I saw it in another video about a couple of years ago, but it looked much worse this time. Endeavor to persevere!

[@ChildofTHEELight1986]

Excited!! 🤗 Looks creepy!!🫣

[@GhostTheory]

It was lol 😆 😂

[@thegac4867]

I think that noise you heard in the big bathroom was when you saw yourself in the mirror, 🤣🤣 and also the tap, well there was a few sinks with a few taps other than that every thing else was 👍so keep the fun going, magic. 🤣🤣🤣👍

Hahaha yeah could have been 😆 🤣 😂 thanks a lot 🙏
