Episode 114: Clophill Church Part 2

The desecrated church in Clophill became a magnet for vandals, morbid thrill-seekers, and possibly even devil worshippers.

But decades later, strange lights, ghostly figures, and an oppressive energy still leave many explorers running for their car.

Are the ghost stories proof of something darker still haunting Clophill, or are they just a product of the satanic panic that overtook the area in the 60s?
