Morecambe Winter Gardens pt 3

The size of Morecambe Winter Gardens allowed our investigators to split into four teams and spread over the theatre.  We had four static cameras and had Electronic Voice Recorders running thoughtout the night.  Experiments conducted included glass, pendulum and scrying.   One team reported interesting results with the scrying; while sitting motionless, looking into a mirror, once female investigator's face was superimposed by another, this face was visibly talking.  
Several of us reported being followed by 'the pusher'; I seemed to collect him where the remains of the galleries gent's are.  All that remains of them is the urinal trough yet this is a busy room, or maybe I called in during interval because the room quickly emptied, it was as if a lady was not meant to be there and as I was not going to leave, they did.  I was standing close to the trough when I was first pushed.  He then followed me down to the circle, along the circle promanade and down through the auditorium and onto the stage.  We all reported experiencing the same sensation of being pushed on the shoulder or upper back as if someone was trying to move us out of the way.  The Paranormal Investigation team who held an investigation here the weekend after us also reported conecting with 'the pusher'.

Many of our teams reported Corner Eye Phenomenon (CEP), fleating glimpses of objects or people out of the corner of the eye, these included shadowy figures moving in the ticket booth, on the main stairs and in the circle.  The stage was an extremely active area with all of our groups reporting seeing shadows as if the stagehands were moving around in both wings.  

While our medium, and several of our sensitives, picked up on the young girl my team, the first to investigate the stage area, were treated to some intriguing effects.  Already aware of 'Lily' the 12year old dancer we were sitting in a circle just right of centre stage when I caught sight of whisps of white gauze like material moving as if they were trailing after dancers on the stage then the temperature dropped.  This was picked up by several members of my team, as were the traces of old fashioned talcy/floral perfume which would fade in and out. The next time the temperature dropped I became aware of an effect like dry-ice creeping across the stage.  With each successive temperature drop, noticed and commented upon by other members of my team, this effect increased in density.  

Our medium did not pick up on this phenomenon but he did pick up on that of the man falling from the fly gallery who possibly hung himself.  The 'hanging man' phenomenon was confirmed by the team of investigators who met there the following week.  Our medium also picked up on the grumpy man in the old saltwater baths area and his 'apprentice', while another of our members had his sighting of a dog under the stage confirmed by our tour guide.

The examination of the camera and EVP recordings is on going .  Morecambe Wintre Gardens is unfortunately are rather dusty place and many 'orbs' found on film are often the result of the light from the canera flash, or light source it a static camera, reflecting off dust particles.

Background
Morecambe Winter Gardens, as we see it today, is half the building complex it used to be.  Its history began in 1878 at the People's Palace, which included seawater baths, an aquarium, and bars and a ballroom for entertainment.  The baths were located on the site where the current theatre stands; remnants of the baths can still be seen in the basement.

This building was sold to Messrs T Baker and RB Abbott in 1896.  Refurbishments incorporated restaurants and an oriental ballroom.  The complex doubled in size with the construction on a music hall, The Victoria Pavilion - sometimes spelt Pavillion -, beside it in 1897 designed by Messrs Magnel and Littlewood in consultation with the renowned Theatre Architeck Frank Matcham.
Internal rebuilding in 1898 added an upper circle and brought the theatre's total seating capacity to 2200.   Sometime around 1908 a glazed veranda was erected across most of the front of the two buildings, but for some reason it stopped just short of the theatre's left tower.  More building and renovation work in 1909 saw the addition of a further balcony (the galleries), a funfair outside at the rear of the theatre, and a billiard room beneath the ballroom.
As English seaside holidays fell out of popularity the complex began to lose money; the fiarground was closed and cleared.  In 1968 the ballroom was converted into The Dixieland Palace Showbar and The Coral Reef Bar.  The theatre hosted regular shows up until 1977 and the Dixieland Bar closed in 1978.  In 1982 the original part of the Winter Gardens, the ballroom, was raised to the ground and demolished.  This is the same year that the theatre building was declared a listed buidling.

Had a great investigation last night but have had only 41/2 hours sleep since then so will post more later.  Meanwhile:

 

   

 

The Blue Blob

During a break in the investigation at the Three Crowns Hotel, Leigh on the sixth of July 2011 I took some photos of the main room with a Kodak Easyshare CX7530 5 mega pixel digi-cam.  This is what showed up on one of the photos.  It does not appear in the photo I took sevral seconds later once my flash had recharged, however there are a couple of the more normally encountered 'orbs' on the photo following that. 
Usually dust or moisture orbs are see through, but this one appears to be solid with a strange 3D like formation in it.  What it is I do not know. 
Any suggestions?
