The Enfield Poltergeist: The True Story Told

By Gavin Wagstaff

The Enfield Poltergeist is a gripping and unsettling account of one of the most famous and controversial paranormal cases in history. Taking place between 1977 and 1979 in a modest council house on Green Street in Enfield, North London, this case has fascinated and divided skeptics and believers alike for decades. The story centers on the Hodgson family, particularly 11-year-old Janet, who found herself at the heart of a series of terrifying and inexplicable events.

It all began with strange knocking sounds in the middle of the night, furniture moving on its own, and objects being hurled across rooms without explanation. Soon, the disturbances escalated-Janet and her younger brother Johnny were seemingly lifted from their beds by unseen forces, eerie voices spoke through Janet in a deep, guttural tone, and witnesses claimed to see her levitating. As fear gripped the family, paranormal investigators from the Society for Psychical Research (SPR), including Maurice Grosse and Guy Lyon Playfair, were called in to document and analyze the strange occurrences.

Over the course of many months, the case gained widespread media attention, drawing journalists, skeptics, and even the police, who themselves witnessed unexplainable events. Despite extensive documentation-recordings, photographs, and eyewitness testimonies-the true nature of what happened remains hotly debated. Some argue it was one of the most compelling cases of supernatural activity ever recorded, while others believe it was an elaborate hoax orchestrated by a troubled young girl seeking attention.

This book delves deep into the chilling details of the Enfield Poltergeist, presenting firsthand accounts, investigator reports, and expert analysis. It explores the psychological, spiritual, and scientific perspectives on what may have caused the disturbances, leaving readers to draw their own conclusions. Was this truly a case of paranormal activity, or was there another explanation lurking beneath the surface?

Prepare to step into one of the most eerie and perplexing hauntings in modern history-a story that continues to captivate, frighten, and intrigue those who dare to explore its mysteries.
