A man who owns a haunted museum near Stoke on Trent claims to be the proud owner the UK’s most haunted doll, scary Mary, as well as many other possessed artifacts.

Craig appeared on ITV’s This Morning with scary Mary, whom he adopted last January and dates back to 1951.

Craig told Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby that she noticed a change in her behavior as soon as they had her. “She’s been spotted many times on CCTV, where the chair has moved from side-to-side, rocked, and her eyes have moved. She’s also thrown herself out the chair on two occasions.”

He said, “She lights up lights around equipment that she likes to use.”

“We’ve had four members on a tour here, and she was actually at the table in central of the room, and she was rocking infront of them.

Three other ladies were also on the tour and witnessed her eyes move to the right. She is amazing and a wonderful artifact.

Holly asked Craig if he was afraid of Holly, especially since he lived with her during the pandemic. Craig replied that it could feel untoward at times but that he is usually comfortable with Mary’s energy. 

Craig then showed viewers some of the other artifacts in the museum, including a coffin that was donated by a local woman last year. 

“Originally, this came from her pub, which was haunted. It was donated to the local undertaker who kept it in storage for years. It was used to transport the bodies of fallen soldiers back into the United Kingdom during the world war. 

It has been proven that over 1000 bodies have been ingested that coffee contains caffeine. We make a lot of scratches and bangs on the coffin. People who sand by the coffin get icy cold and other points.

Then he showed viewers a Victorian pram that he had owned for more than ten years.

“This pram has been seen moving forward and in reverse on many live feeds. This has happened 8 to 9 times in the past year.  

Craig explained during the show that it was his grandfather who inspired him to pursue paranormal pursuits.

Craig said, “Yes, he did indeed. Many years ago, when I was 10 years old.” “Shortly after my grandfather died, we felt his energy and could smell the tobacco smoke coming from his pipe. I was very intrigued by paranormal activity from an early age.

Craig, who claims his childhood house was haunted, said: “The house we lived was very, very active. It was a large house with several landings downstairs and a large cellar. 

When presenter Holly (pictured, with Phillip Schofield) asked whether he ever gets scared of scary Mary, Craig replied: 'Sometimes it can feel a little bit untoward but most of the time we feel quite comfortable with Mary's energy that's around

‘My dad would be sitting on the bed of his auntie and would say that he was talking to her. 

“There were many strange circumstances in the house that made it seem like you were wondering what else was going on.”

Craig, along with two of his friends, decided in his twenties to travel around the UK and find paranormal activity. He then started his own paranormal events company.

Craig shared his experience with Craig about the most bizarre supernatural thing he had ever witnessed.

“I was the guest medium that night. We saw a lady there. The only thing I can say about her is that it seemed like she was possessed. 

He said, “It was witnessed on that night by everyone and she even came on our page now to interact with members of the public. She tells them in her own words about what happened and her experiences with it.”

It was quite frightening to witness. These things are often seen on TV and in movies, but it’s quite frightening to actually witness someone being overtaken by something.
