Lee said: “People have told us that witchcraft takes place there.
"We’ve no idea if that’s the case or whether these dolls are anything to do with that, but it’s all very weird.”
Linzi added: “It might well be a prank. People might have got bored in lockdown and done this for a laugh, but it is a very strange thing to do and not very nice for people to see.”

And the pair were shocked when EVP equipment – an app which picks up ghost ‘voices’ began warning the pair with a number of words associated with sorcery.
He said: “I asked the spirts if anything was being conjured up around here, and a voice replied: “I am.”
"We also heard the words ‘demon’ and ‘devil.’
Added Linzi: “I think it is probably a prank and reckon we’ll probably see more of these with people copying. I don’t think we’ll ever really know what’s happened.”
