Most Haunted's Newest Paranormal Researcher Is A Dog Named Watson

Yvette Fielding and the Most Haunted team make their return in a new series starting Friday April 14th on Really, when television's favourite paranormal investigation team will be joined by a new team member, a bulldog called Watson.

In the new series, Yvette and Karl, along with the rest of the team, travel across the country to investigate some of Britain's most haunted locations and for the first time ever they'll be joined by a canine team member, Yvette's two-year-old pet dog, Watson.

Watson springs into action in the first episode of the series at Abbey House Museum in Leeds. The location starts to give up its mysteries as soon as the team arrives and before long Watson pounces head-first into the den of a particularly aggressive poltergeist.

Yvette told The Mirror, "we didn't buy him to go on Most Haunted but he has become my baby now the kids are a grown up and comes everywhere with me. I started to take him to him to filming and he loved it, being with the crew and on location."

“He can definitely tell when something odd is going on.”

As well as Abbey House Museum, also in this series the team become the first paranormal researchers to visit the very haunted Wentworh Woodhouse Stable Block in Rotherham.

They also investigate Liverpool's oldest pub, The Slaughter House where they encounter more than they bargained for as objects are moved from underneath the team's noses.

And for the first time ever Yvette takes the Most Haunted team to an ordained church and graveyard in Todmorden where there's a fright waiting for the team in the church's cellar.

Friday is now #Frightday as the new series comes to Really from April 14th. Watch on Freeview (17), Sky (155) and Virgin Media (129), or watch previous episodes of Most Haunted on demand on the UKTV Play.
