This is Lightly Used with Adam and Karen.
Hello, I'm Adam.
And I'm Karen.
And this is Lightly Used, a podcast loosely based around our favourite finds in charity shops.
Very loose.
And we're doing a slightly different recording schedule this time.
It's only been a week since we recorded episode 10.
You've continued your birthday celebrations with the week off.
I have indeed.
I am now.
Got right for some.
I know, I'm now at the tail end of my week off and I can say I've thoroughly enjoyed myself.
It's been exactly what I've needed.
I've had such a laugh.
Excellent.
I've done some awesome things, spent time with wonderful people.
And you went to investigate haunted things.
I did go and investigate haunted things in Routon's Museum in Carmarthen.
They've only been open since the 26th of October.
That's a short time for it to be haunted.
Well, I mean, they're based in a chapel and the chapel's been there for, well, since at
least 1906 and apparently came with its own inhabitants.
So importantly, did you find a ghost?
I did not.
Oh.
But the history and all the information they gave, they were fantastic and they've got
some really fun little artifacts there.
Two of note, they've got a piece of masonry from the Demon House in America, which was
recently made into a film called Deliverance, I've got to say.
The film is loosely based on the events that have been reported, but you know, it's all
right.
And they have a piece of the original window frames from the Amityville Horror House.
You know, the really famous windows in like the attic that look like two evil eyes.
The circle ones or the pointy-ish ones?
They're like kind of, they point towards each other flatwise and then they're arced on the
outside.
And the famous photos of the house have got those windows are backlit with red and they
have a piece of the window frames.
They have a little certificate of authenticity.
Actually, yes they do.
Excellent.
Just so you can know the provenance.
Yeah.
It's just not any old glass you're looking at.
Most of the objects they've got, they know the provenance of.
There are some pieces that they've been donated or have collected themselves over the years
that they don't know any history of.
But they've been drawn to these items or they've been volunteered to them.
But they can tell that story of why they were drawn to it.
Yeah, they can tell that story.
This is what we found from, yeah.
We don't know anything beyond this.
But yeah, so they've had a few people go to take this away and then they've just not
given them any more information.
So they've got a room where they've got objects under observation, 24-hour CCTV and audio
feed and stuff.
How much of that is just people just wanting to get rid of some tat?
Wow.
Please just take this away.
