The haunting at 30 East Drive was the subject of the 2012 horror movie When The Lights Went Out and was investigated for the Halloween special of Most Haunted Live in 2015. All of the family aside from Phillip had gone to Devon for a holiday. He had been left at the house in his grandmother’s care, a lady called Sarah Scholes.
