CWB Property, Sales, Lettings and Management, Snodland, set up CCTV and capture ghostly activity

A small shop that set up CCTV in a bid to find out who was moving objects overnight believes it may have captured ghostly goings on.

About a month ago, staff at CWB Property, Sales, Lettings and Management in Snodland realised cups were being left in odd places and doors were discovered open in the mornings.

Partner Warren Bowman initially thought his two colleagues were forgetting to put their crockery away and shut doors but when they promised him they had remembered to do so he began to suspect something strange was happening.

CCTV recorded movements in the early hours of the morning

Mr Bowman set up three motion-sensitive CCTV cameras - two in the shop and one outside.

When he watched footage from the early hours of the morning he saw doors apparently opening by themselves and unexplained orbs of light floating in front of the lens.

Mr Bowman said: "Before I watched the footage I still wasn't sure it wasn't one of the staff.

"When I watched the doors opening I nearly went off running down the street! The kitchen door opens quite slowly but the toilet door bounces open and shut as if it's been pushed quite hard.

"There are no windows that open in that part of the shop so no draught. I'm not looking forward to when the clocks change and we're here on our own in the dark!

"I don't know what the orbs are at all, I've looked at them several times. I think I do believe in ghosts, I'm remaining open minded."

A woman who visited the business apparently told Mr Bowman she could "feel something" before adding that the presence felt female and not very friendly.

Craig Walker finds the whole situation funny

This isn't the first time Mr Bowman has experienced the paranormal.

When he was a teenager, his mother and a girlfriend claimed to have seen a man on the stairs when he was the only male in the house.

He later discovered, from a visiting Avon lady who used to live in the house, that a man had died on the staircase.

But Mr Bowman isn't calling in the exorcists just yet.

He said: "At the moment it's just silly things like finding cups on desks. We'll wait and see what happens. My partner Craig Walker finds it funny. He said there must be an explanation for it."

A door can be seen opening in the video

The boss is keen to find out about the history of the 100-year-old building, which he believes was Snodland's first library.
