People who believe in ghosts are not crazy and scientists need to take spook encounters far more seriously, according to Yvette Fielding.
The paranormal investigator and telly presenter has enjoyed a 20-year career tracking spirits and ghosts across the world.

Alongside husband, Karl Beattie, she has produced a number of spooky series including Most Haunted and Ghosthunting With.., the former of which has run for 25 seasons.

“I was in my late 20s, well before I started filming Most Haunted. I was staying at my mum’s and woke up in the middle of the night and saw a man staring at me from the end of the bed.
“I could only see him from the middle up but he was dressed in a World War II army uniform. The detail on his face was so intricate – I could see he’d greased and parted his hair.
