Derby Road looks to be in for a frighteningly good time as Nottingham's Haunted Museum has announced it will open in January 2023. The museum is currently based in Hopkinson vintage shop on Station Street.
The haunted museum will be taking over the premises that used to be Windblowers after owners Margaret Frogson and David Oldershaw retired earlier this year. The shop had been a musical store for more than 40 years. It has been announced that the new owners will open a new Whistleblowers in the Beeston business park.
The Derby Road building now looks set to be another location for the haunted museum. A sign on the door of the Debry Road premises announced that it hopes to open in January. Builders were already hard at work within the building to get it ready for opening.
The sign suggests that this will have new 'oddities' along with a gift shop on site. The Hopkinson-site museum is said to be 'home to evil spirits, thousands of haunted items, possessed dolls and a mirror room said to turn visitors mad'. There are also evening tours of the building for those with an interest in the supernatural.
The team are set to host a spooky 'VIP evening tour' of Hopkinsons which was built in the 1800s in early 2023 although tickets have already sold out for the event. Other investigations by the UK Ghost Hunt team include Strelley Hall and the Ripon prison and police station in Harrogate.
