TV PSYCHIC ON

- BY JENNY MORRISON

Telly psychic Chris Fleming has claimed he was “violated” by a ghost while visiting Stirling’s historic Old Town Jail. The renowned medium was filming for new series Spooked Scotland with Gail Porter when they visited the prison in search of a reported poltergeis­t.

Chris was in a room used 170 years ago for prisoners’ medical exams, when he felt what he described as an “embarrassi­ng” and “not pleasant” experience.

Looking visibly shaken he was forced to flee the room and said he was in no doubt the spirit had carried out the violation to make him leave the jail.

American Chris, 54, who previously worked with Gail on the TV show Dead Famous, said: “We were in the room listening to a guide telling their story, when all of a sudden I had this feeling that I can only equate to what it feels like for a man to get a prostate exam.

“You see a doctor who puts a glove on and does the exam – that’s exactly what this felt like. There are times when people have been sexually violated by demonic entities – that obviously popped into my head.

“I’m not saying this is what this was. It wasn’t.

“I think it was more to do with what the prisoners went through when they were there – having these medical exams.”

Chris, a paranormal researcher, said he hadn’t known the room he was in had a medical history until after the incident.

He said: “The guide ended up telling us that they used to do tests like that – proctology exams – in that room, which I hadn’t known.

“The question is whether the spirit was actually doing that to me or was it residual energy I was picking up from what happened there?”

Earlier on his visit to Stirling’s Old Town Jail Chris was left screaming with pain after feeling the sensation of a needle being stabbed into his back. The Spooked Scotland team
