Not an ED thing but did anyone hear that blood curdling screaming coming from the nunhead cemetery (Linden Grove/Brockley Path corner) this evening around 10.30/11 ish. Im thinking it was some fight /attack to the death of a young fox but it was awful. Are there any animal knowledgable types out there who can explain what it was? I have heard mating foxes before but this was right scary.

Slightly off topic here but Nunhead cemetary has been the scene for many strange events over the years. I used to go along to some of the psychic investigations here and without doubt it is one of the scariest places after dark any time of the year. I always remember back in the 1970's when a group of dog walkers saw what appeared to be a lady in victorian dress walking with a lantern and as the group approached her she disappeared. On another ocassion a man reported seeing and hearing the sound of a group if young children giggling in one of the wooded areas of the cemetary and found no trace of anyone (this is in the wee hours of the morning btw). Always been a strange place, and sights and sounds are constantly reported without any conclousion ever being reached on what they are. May have been a fox, but judging by the history of this place, it could have been anything!

*Bob* organised the whole event.


During the daytime it isnt as frightening, but i'm sure psychic stuff goes on during the daytime too, although many experts on this subject matter believe that between 1 and 3am is the time at which most paranormal activity takes place.


I dare any of you to pitch a tent up there and no experience something strange.

HA HA HA HA


Great stuff. This preposterous guff will surely come back to, er, well - you know.

*Bob* you may find this highly amusing, but much paranormal activity has remained unexplained even by experts over the years. I guarantee if you went to one of these events you would come away with a different opinion. Some people remain so closed minded to the idea that there may be some sort of after life, the EDPS did all sorts of things that even the sceptical folk found difficult to explain.

Pah! As teenagers on a couple of occassions some friends and I spent the night in Nunhead cemetary getting smashed on cheap booze, various pills and smoking spliff and whatnot and I can't ever remember any of us getting spooked despite our state of mind. It's a beautiful old cemetary and a lovely place to go for a walk on a summer's day though I've not been there for a very long time (30 years or more).

Have you heard of anything paranormal happening in the Dulwich Woods?


Apparently there has been laughing and screams heard at night!


Oh and apparently after reading this : Spooky London East Dulwich is on a fertility ley line.


Mmmm maybe that explanation answers Roxie99 question and also mine!

Sense :-)

way back. I had a girl friend who came in one night white as a sheet. She said she had seen a ghost up by the cemetery gates, when she drove pass in her mini. Reluctantly she went back with me to investigate. It turned out there was this steam coming from some drains. It did look creepy in the dim light, but it was funny.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
