Hauntingly Beautiful Hardwick Hall

Wow. What a fortunate suggestion to watch this by KZbin. History along with EVP's. I absolutely LOVE the way you do this. Subscribed and thrilled that I can catch up on all of your other videos. Thank you so much xx Teresa 🇦🇺♥

[@EVP-Voices]

Good morning Teresa, what a lovely message to wake up to, thank you! Wishing you a warm welcome to my channel. Any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! 😊

Thank you for a very informative as well as entertaining video 📷. I love the Tudor period so I enjoyed the history lesson as well .

I was so looking forward to this video! I love how you combine the historical background and photos. It really brings whoever is speaking to ‘life’. The EVP of ‘We mean it. We drugged you.’ is crazy!

[@EVP-Voices]

Thank you so much Mrs G! It is bonkers isn't it, wasn't until after I'd written the narration that I learned about Bess being poisoned. Never know what to expect on my visits now! :)

[@OldManRocketLeague]

Excellent videography, extremely well edited and presented, you can tell the amount of work you put into these. Do you ever record EVP at home? I get the impression that some of these voices are with you, where ever you go.

[@EVP-Voices]

Thank you so much David, I'm honestly delighted that you recognise all the work I put into the videos. This was fun to make, however many hours it took. And yes, you're perfectly correct, I'm sure that those I record on my visits are never far away. Thanks for watching :)

[@camilelcoyne]

Rachel, this was exceptional! I love the way you've posted the clips with the raw recording, then cleaned up, and then with subtitles. That deepens the context and makes me appreciate them even more. The one with the singing really blew me away. I can't wait to read through the comments and see what other folks think of it and what it might be from. And lastly, I went to check in on the Discord group and can't seem to find it now via my bookmarks. Am I just missing it and need to explore around a bit more, I wonder? Anyway, thank you so much for another outstanding video and for all your hard work! How lucky we are that you do what you do so we can learn about these places, people, and their lives.

[@EVP-Voices]

Hi Camile :) Thank you so much for your kind words, I sincerely appreciate your feedback on the video. I never take what I do for granted, or forget how lucky I am to stay at the locations and to be able to share the voices I capture. There is a lot of work involved but it's worth every minute if you enjoy it. Sadly I knocked the discord on the head, only a few turned up and no matter how many times I reset the permissions, people couldn't join. You're always welcome to get in touch via Skype if you'd like a chat. Thanks again for your support, it means the world. Rachel :)

I do love those tiny foot steps! Goes fantastic with the floor plan, very helpful. Enjoyed this video very much! Your knowledge from research of the places you visit stand out massively in your videos, very educational and entertaining 😊. Keep up the good work, and looking forward to your next video! Take care until then ❤

[@EVP-Voices]

Hi Clare! So glad you enjoyed the video and found it entertaining. Finding old floorplans can be something of a challenge for the places I visit, thankfully Hardwick Hall was available but others can take days of drawing and cleaning. Leeds Castle up next, working on it right now. Thanks for watching :)

[@karenmarbles4059]

I went here today, I found the building full of atmosphere don't get me wrong. However I have never walked into a room and felt shudders as I did in the "apartment" on the middle floor. Started by the chapel and become much worse around the dinning room. Does anyone know if anything happened here?

[@EVP-Voices]

Hi Karen,wishing you a warm welcome to my channel. So many tales of intrigue and gossip exist; Bess enjoyed keeping up with the affairs of society and it wouldn’t surprise me if some heated events took place in the area you felt uncomfortable. Sadly these things aren’t recorded, but I’d say trust your gut. In my experience we have the ability to pick up on these things. Thanks for watching 😊

[@lykkebaasch6648]

P.S. Thank you for "the small shoes"... They help a Dane to better understand where we are in the various places you visit... More so if it were to slip with the understanding of the English language😆❤.

[@Sweetlyfe]

Hey Rachel, I hope you’re keeping well. A great visit to a beautiful house, great EVP’s they don’t let you slip by unnoticed, it’s pretty cool that they are having chats about you, a real privilege. My love left me 3 Monarch butterfly wings on my deck this morning, every time I stepped outside from the kitchen to take my breakfast to my living room it’s in another building, there was another wing when I had only walked back into the kitchen to place the wing with the feather’s she leaves me, and each time where I had just walked there was another one about 1 minute apart, it left me feeling kind of giddy with happiness. I didn’t get butterflies on my property until after she died, the first spring I was surrounded by about 20 of them, and they have been coming ever since. Thanks for the great historical information too, and I do love the use of the map, I also love the shoes soundscape as I imagine that’s how shoes with leather souls sound on those staircases. Great upload. Happy Crimbo and new year if we don’t see another video before then. Cheers Jacques

[@EVP-Voices]

Hello! Glad to hear you're keeping well and being visited by beautiful creatures. The butterflies sound gorgeous! Hoping to get another video out before Santa arrives... Thanks for watching :)

[@carlanderson6205]

I really enjoy what your doing. Nearly all my ancestors are English people who came to Virginia and the Carolinas 16 and 1700s. But I often think of all there hundreds of ancestors walking around in England thru the centuries. Perhaps some of them lived or worked or visited the very places you are visiting. I had a sort of vision dream one night. In this dream I was flying like an eagle over what I felt to be northern English countryside. I could see a town in the distance, church steaples , many trees. I landed on a muddy road in the woods walking up to a plain. Not terribly large manor house abandoned, shabby, and boarded up. It was very important that I enter, but could not undo the lock and chain on the front door. Never have been to such a place. Why would I dream that I wonder? Perhaps it is a genetic or blood memory of some sort or some past life thing or something or other. Who knows? I really enjoy what your doing. I'll keep watching. God bless.

[@camilelcoyne]

That sounds to my untrained ear rather like a lucid dream. That it was a flying dream makes it even more fascinating. I have lineage/genealogy that goes through Virginia in the 1600 and 1700s, then back to England as well. Rachel did a video about one of the places where some of my ancestors passed away, according to the records I was able to find. I think I'm especially drawn to her videos because of those ancestral links, and I wonder if that might be the case for you as well? Your dream is certainly interesting and I'm glad you shared it with us and spurred my mind to think about these things.

Did you not getting any EVPs on the second floor? As you have miss out a lot of rooms on that floor. I find Bess chamber to be most active when I visit.

[@EVP-Voices]

Hi Jenny. Recordings from the second floor begin on the Upper Landing and end when I descend the stairs at the end of bedrooms (timings are under the video description and the floor plan shows you where I was). I'd love to hear the evidence you've captured, are you able to share? Thanks for watching

[@nawshinanjum8219]

i am so eager to listen to Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth the second one day! i never imagined i would hear instruments and singing voices. i went over it many many times. What did they kitchen staff meant by Rachel 's boy though?

[@EVP-Voices]

Hello again! I would love to capture Diana's voice, however, I think it's very unlikely. Unless either of them regularly frequented a place where I was recording, they would have no reason to get in touch. My experience would suggest that those who come forward, do so with a reason. Rachel's boy I would guess, is either in reference to the child I lost, or someone who accompanies me on their side. Thank you for watching :)

Oh Rosemary, I am beyond flattered, thank you! Still working hard on my narration, it doesn't come naturally, so I'm delighted that you're pleased with it. I'm afraid there isn't a dedicated episode in planning that features Bess, but she is mentioned in the most recent episode at Bolsover. Always open to suggestions for new locations though. Thanks for watching :)

[@RosemaryWallace-wt5xj]

Hey Rachel, do you think theres a possibility Bess could be the illegitimate daughter of Henry VIII? It would explain her exceptional life perfectly.

[@EVP-Voices]

@@RosemaryWallace-wt5xj that took me by surprise! A gut reaction would say no, but in all honesty, I haven't got enough knowledge of Bess's family to even guess. You could always try looking at the court diary and letters to see if Henry went a calling... ;)
