St
Andrew's Church, Rodney Street, Liverpool has caused much
debate and speculation.
Tom Slemen, in his
Haunted Liverpool books, told a tale of how James MacKenzie
had lost his soul to the devil in a game of cards and to cheat
the devil from his promise, that when MacKenzie was in the
ground the devil would claim his immortal soul, MacKenzie
was interred sitting on a chair above ground holding a winning
hand.
Many years ago I had
a terrible, terrible nightmare. This formed the basis for
one of the chapters in my book. Imagine my astonishment to
discover that Derek Acorah had described a very similar scene
to my nightmares in his book "The Psychic Adventures
of Derek Acorah". Until that point I thought that I had
just had a bad nightmare and it had no actual connection to
the pyramid tomb in Rodney Street.
I decided to look into
things a little bit further and the photographs on this page
are from the early part of my investigations.

a hole in the wall of the building to the side of the main church.

And Finally ...
I feel that I must
point out that I am not a spiritualist nor did I believe in
the paranormal. I cannot offer an explanation for any of the
anomalies on these photographs but would be more than happy
to enter into debate.
I still continue to
try and find explanations for these anomalies and although
"ghost hunting" is not a main area of my research
I will pursue it for a while just to see where it leads. |

| The
grave yard at night is often backlit by the lights from the
John Moore's Library building behind it. This can make it difficult
to photograph. |
|
|
|
Eventually when the
lights do go out it makes it much easier to see the shapes
of the grave stones and tombs.

The stones in the foreground are obviously lit by the
flash.
You can just see the copper crest above
the entrance to the pyramid tomb glowing in the dark. This
photograph was taken at 20.59hrs |
|
| You can see in this photograph
some orbs just starting to appear as bright spots of light in
front of the pyramid. The photograph was taken at 21.00hrs. |
|
|
| A subsequent visit to St
Andrew's Church about five days later resulted in some very
weird happenings |
| I could take very few photographs on
this occasion because the batteries in both my digital camera
and SLR drained of energy every time I pointed them at the pyramid
tomb. |
|
| You will notice two clear orbs near
the area of the pyramid but also notice how the pyramid and
background seem to be out of focus as if there is a haze in
the air and yet you can see the grave stones and monument in
the foreground are clear and sharply in focus. |
