Fort Amherst is probably one of the best surviving examples of Georgian military architecture. The main underground tunnel system is steeped in history and is said to be rife with paranormal activity. Visitors have experienced male and female voices, the sound of footsteps, and the apparition of a male figure.

On 13th February 2010, Compass Paranormal hosted a special charity event in aid of Help for Heroes and MEV Productions were hired to produce a film of the evening. Approximately 200 ticket holders gathered at Fort Amherst in Kent for an night of paranormal activity hosted by ‘Angel Lady’ and best selling author Jacky Newcomb
along with Paranormal Historian Richard Felix (Most Haunted), mediums Barrie John (Most Haunted), Roy Roberts and special guest Frank Bruno.

The evening started at 9pm with everyone assembling in a grand marquee giving the guests a chance to meet each other, the team and mediums. Jackie gave an introduction and let everyone know what to expect. There was a reenactment group playing drums during the event opening and added atmosphere throughout the evening. Guests were divided into smaller groups and taken around by the team, giving them an historical tour and a chance to conduct séances and vigils. The team set up equipment around the fort for the purpose of the experiments, hoping the guests will got a chance to experience, including a spirit board and a coffin!
The evening was very successful raising thousands of pounds for the Help for Heroes charity and was also the launch of the Compass Paranormal Company.
