Paranormal Investigation at The Barnes Institute
Step inside the historic Barnes Institute in Sunderland and experience a night of authentic ghost hunting with Kindred Spirit Investigations. This atmospheric Victorian building has long been associated with unexplained sounds, strange sensations, and moments that leave even experienced investigators questioning what they have witnessed.
As darkness falls and the building falls silent, many who have explored its rooms report a powerful atmosphere — unexplained noises, shifting temperatures, and the strange feeling that someone, or something, may still be present.
Join us for a serious paranormal investigation where you will explore the building after hours, taking part in structured ghost hunting experiments using both traditional and modern paranormal investigation techniques.
Whether you are completely new to ghost hunting or already fascinated by the paranormal, this immersive experience allows you to explore one of Sunderland’s most intriguing historic locations.
Is the Barnes Institute simply an old building full of natural sounds — or could something from its past still remain?
