Family set up camera in 'haunted' home after hearing 'little girl crying' and smelling rotten egg

A family have set up a camera in their home after claiming they heard a 'little girl crying' and have smelled 'rotten egg' in a series of paranormal activities.

Jon Paul Kennedy, 33, his partner, Kymmi Jeffery, 38, and their two children moved into their new Cheshire home September 2022 and are now trying to capture the spooky happenings. They say their daughters - Snow, 10, and Pebble, six - are just as intrigued.

Jon, a teacher, from Winsford, said: “We thought we had a gas leak because it was smelling like rotten egg. We called an engineer out and he couldn’t find a leak. Suddenly the smell just vanished. Sulphur smells can be associated with demons.”

Kymmi, a therapist, added: “The other night I woke up at 3am and heard a girl crying. I checked on Snow and Pebble but they were fast asleep. We’re going to buy cameras to try and capture anything.”

The couple started their ghost-hunting business in August 2022 after going on a tour for Kymmi’s birthday, reports CheshireLive. “Kymmi was very sceptical about it all when she first met me, “ Jon said. “I bought her a ticket to a haunted house for her birthday and we picked up a pink spirit ghost on camera.”

The family visit sites together and claim their daughter, Snow, can see ghosts and demons. “She saw these really long fingers on a ghost hunt,” Jon said. “She keeps picking up stuff in the house. The girls loved being involved with experiments on our different artefacts.”

Kymmi added: “Pebble finds it hilarious. She put out all her Barbies to see if they would move. They’d moved when she woke up and she was adamant it wasn’t her.”

Kymmi spent £250 on a doll for Jon
