Hi, I'm Rachel, owner and founder of this magical team. Back in the summer of 2019, I had an idea that I never imagined would grow into what Retford Ghost Hunters is today. I wanted to approach the paranormal world differently. No relying on Ouija boards or dark arts, but investigating with positivity, light, respect and an open mind. I wanted us to stand out and do things our own way. I had the passion and vision, but I needed backing to make it happen. That's where David came in. He believed in me, invested financially in the business and helped turn my little idea into reality. Today, that little idea has grown into an amazing paranormal community, with a fantastic team, wonderful supporters and unforgettable memories. I've put my heart and soul into building this, through the highs, challenges and countless late nights. David was my investor and supporter from day one, and today he's my husband. I'm incredibly proud of what we've built together and grateful to everyone who has become part of our journey. One little idea in 2019... look where we are now!
Hi I'm David. Back in 2019, Rachel came to me with an idea. She had a vision of creating something special, something that would bring people together through a shared passion for the paranormal. I could see how much it meant to her, and I believed in her from the very beginning. I made the decision to financially invest in Retford Ghost Hunters, helping Rachel turn her idea into a reality. It took money, commitment and belief, but I knew she had the determination to make it work. What started as an idea on a summer's evening has grown into something much bigger than we ever imagined. I've watched Rachel put her heart and soul into this business, building a fantastic team, creating unforgettable events and bringing together an amazing community of supporters. People see the investigations, the events and the name Retford Ghost Hunters, but they don't always see the hard work, dedication and everything that goes on behind the scenes. I'm incredibly proud of what Rachel has achieved. I might have helped provide the investment to get things started, but it was her passion, determination and drive that built it into what it is today. Today, I'm not just the investor who believed in her dream. I'm her husband, and I couldn't be prouder of the woman who made it happen. Never underestimate what can happen when someone believes in your dream as much as you do.
My name is Ron, and I am the Manager of Retford Ghost Hunters UK. I joined the team in August 2021 and am responsible for planning, organising and booking all of our paranormal events. I'm passionate about the paranormal and dedicated to bringing people together to explore the unknown, investigate haunted locations and create memorable experiences for everyone who joins us.
My name is Lisa and I have been honoured to be part of Retford Ghost Hunters since 2021. I started as a viewer, onto MOD then an investigator and now I am part of the management team. I love everything about paranormal and the fun we have searching for it and the true friends I have made being part of this amazing team.
Hi I'm Shirley. I have been with Rachel at the very beginning. I love everything to do with the spirits, and wonder what happens to them and their history. I once had an out of body experience, which was amazing. So I love being part of the family RGH.
Hi I'm Mandy. I've been with RGH since day one as their medium. At first I was out on the hunts which I loved but then moved to Cornwall so now I watch most hunts and put comments on what I see and feel, but I am trying to move back to where I come from so hopefully will be back out on a few hunts in the future. I think RGH has gone from strength to strength and is a fantastic team. Proud to still be part of it.
I'm Alex, I run the data team alongside the other fabulous data analysts. I also support with history and research and run the YouTube side of things! I stumbled onto the team almost 4 years ago and haven't looked back! Due to me living in Wales, everything I do is remote but I love attending events with the team and getting to meet some of our wonderful viewers.
I am Data Anthony. I have followed the team for over 6 years and have since recently joined the team as part of their Data analyst team here at Retford Ghost Hunters. I love all aspects of the paranormal and I'm always on the look out for proof of life after death. I hope to see you all in our chat on the lives or maybe at one of our events.
I'm Louise and I'm one of the historians for Retford Ghost Hunters. I first discovered RGH after watching a video on Youtube way back in 2021 and I soon found them on Facebook and became a supporter. I officially joined the team in July 2024 and absolutely love researching the history of each of our haunted locations.
Hello everyone my name is Leanne. I am from Ollerton, Nottinghamshire. I have been part of Retford Ghost Hunters for a year as a moderator and also a data analyst. I love being part of the team everyone is incredible and we all bring something special to the team.
I'm Karen, originally born in Yorkshire. My family moved when I was 7 to live in South Wales. I have a supportive and amazing fella named Andy, am a mum of 2 and also a nanna of 2. As well as a great interest in RGH & the paranormal, I love dogs having 6 of my own. I love the sea and find it can be calming one day and blow away the cobwebs the next. The sound of the waves crashing on rocks or gently rolling on the beach and the strong salty smell makes me feel alive. I'm so lucky to have it on my doorstep and can appreciate its character all year round. I'm a bit of a joker and find humour is always the best medicine. Being part of RGH is like having a huge extended family and I love being part of the Data team and have gained 2 extra data daughters in Leanne & Alex. I love doing the data and enjoy the lives and the fact that they contain fun and laughter alongside the seriousness of the investigations. My favourite location has to be the Asylum with a close runner up being Binbrook. A lot goes into each live and behind the scenes and the effort of each and every member of the team produces the amazing lives and outcomes the viewers get to enjoy. Here's to many more!!!!
Hello everyone I'm Mick. I have been with RGH for around 6 and a half years watching as a viewer and then becoming a mod from there I was asked to be an investigator and thoroughly enjoy every moment being out with the team at all the different locations. It has become a part of my life every day, having the best of friends and time. Keep watching everyone, love you all.
I'm Trevor, and I've been part of Retford Ghost Hunters UK since July 2020, initially as a moderator before joining the investigation team. With a lifelong fascination for the afterlife and all things paranormal, I'm passionate about exploring the unexplained and discovering what may lie beyond. Outside of ghost hunting, I enjoy kickboxing (having started at 46 and now working towards my black belt), geocaching, solving Rubik's Cubes (personal best just over 90 seconds), cooking and creating cocktails. Always curious, always exploring, and always looking forward to the next adventure!
Hi. I'm Wendy and I joined RGH 5 years ago. My roles in the team are historical researcher and mod.
Hi I'm Adam and I'm an investigator. I've been part of RGH since Feb 2021 and a follower and supporter long before I was asked to join the team. I was officially the first male Mod on the team. I'm from an hour away (everywhere we go). Known as the bat (Rachel's cute nickname for me).
Hello, my name is Janey. I'm a mum of two boys, who keep me very busy with all things football. I love being outdoors and love the paranormal. I love investigating new places with the team and discovering those who have been forgotten.
Meet Rob - Born Ready for the Paranormal. Rob has been part of Retford Ghost Hunters for nearly three years, but ask him when he was ready to hunt for the paranormal and the answer is simple: he was born ready! With a genuine love of ghost hunts and an appetite for the unexplained, Rob is right at home with RGH. For him, the appeal is in the mystery, the anticipation and that irresistible question: what might be out there? Nearly three years in, his enthusiasm says it all. Some people love a quiet night in. Rob? He'd rather go ghost hunting.
Hi, I'm Kizzy, a paranormal investigator with Retford Ghost Hunters! I've been part of the team for over a year and have loved every minute of exploring the unexplained. I have a real passion for dark history, forgotten stories, true crime and all things macabre. I love digging into the history behind haunted locations, uncovering the stories of those who came before us, and investigating what might still linger beyond the veil. For me, it's all about curiosity, history, and discovering what goes bump in the night!
Hi I'm Matt. I've been a member of RGH since August 2025. I've had a major interest into the paranormal since I can remember and RGH is undoubtedly the best place to satisfy that itch - an amazing honest team I'm proud to be a part of. I'm engaged and soon to be married to my better half Emma, we have 5 children between us and live a nuthouse life in Retford where each day is as nutty as me. As a chef by day and a ghost hunter at night there's never a dull moment. I'm also a massive Sheffield Wednesday fan born and bred in Halfway S20 Sheffield.
Hi I'm Libby. My mum is a ghost buster - who can say that their mum is a ghost hunter? Not many! I'm proud she's not afraid to follow her dreams and give up her full time job to do something she's so passionate about. I look up to my mum for being so brave and courageous to do something she absolutely loves. Not everybody can, but my mum did. I love going out and about to the different locations and the joy it brings to so many people's lives that watch her. It's great - keep being you mum and searching the unknown.
Hey everyone my names Jordan and I'm from Ireland. I'm a paranormal investigator, new to the team but I'm absolutely loving it. I'm so grateful and blessed I get to do this and be part of such a fantastic team that not only goes out ghost hunting but supports each other which is beautiful.
Hi everybody! My name's Shell. I've been with the team since 2023 where I started out as a mod/data analyst, then moved onto the investigating team for events. I'm so passionate about the paranormal and investigating with the team that I travel over an hour and a half every week to be a part of it. It's a place for me to be myself outside of being a wife, a mom of 4 and full time carer to my amazing Autistic/PDA kids and I love it! I have always been interested in the unknown and had lots of paranormal experiences since I was a child. Oh and I'm obsessed with home fragrance, crystals and moss.
Hi, I'm Chelsea, one of many paranormal investigators from a small village called Harworth. I care for the elderly with dementia during the day, and when the sun sets, the torch comes out and the ghost hunting begins. This year my eyes have been massively opened joining such a wonderful team and I will be forever grateful for such an amazing opportunity. Up the RGH!
Hi my name is Philomena. I moved to the UK over 10 years ago from Ireland. I got into Retford Ghost Hunters through a mutual friend and I met Rachel to chat with her over 7 years ago to see about joining her team. We chatted and we hit it off straight away and from that moment I was hooked and joined her incredible team as an investigator which I'm so proud to still be part of. I have made really amazing friends in the team to which we call our RGH family. Over the years we have been to some really outstanding haunted places which I've loved every single one. I love everything paranormal so roll on the next 7 years with RGH please God, where we all as a team will continue to go out and look for paranormal evidence. Rachel has given me so much confidence in doing something I truly love, but not only for taking me on as an investigator but for becoming one of my dear friends and for that I will always be grateful for.
Hey I'm Amie. I live in Shirebrook. I first found RGH around 2020 and started watching the team. By March 2021 I became a moderator for them. Little did I know not long after I found the love of my life Libby, Rachel's daughter. I then became an investigator in October 2023 which I absolutely love. Unfortunately I don't get out as much as I'd like to due to chronic pain and anxiety but I'm always floating around in the background. That's why I'm weird and wonderful and fit in with the RGH family. I would be absolutely lost without it. Rachel, my mother in law, is an amazing boss to an amazing team and that's why we're the best out there. See you out and about at our fantastic locations.
Macaulay is an enthusiastic investigator with a keen interest in capturing audio evidence. He is always ready to explore new locations and bring fresh energy to every ghost hunt.
Bev is a valued member of the investigation team, bringing dedication and enthusiasm to every ghost hunt.
Sarah brings her energy and curiosity to the investigation team, helping create memorable experiences at every location.
Hello everyone I'm Jan. I have been watching RGH for the past 6-7 years and then became a mod with my husband Mick. I'm now your head mod looking after the chat for you all safely. I love getting my boots on ready to rid the trolls and inappropriate comments and I also help the other mods too. RGH is part of mine and Mick's life which enables us to have a hobby together. We love going out and about finding places and love showing our supporters our adventures on our holidays too. We have the best family together within our whole team and I am super proud to be part of it. Hope you all keep watching this amazing team always, much love.
Hi, I'm Debbie, a Moderator for RGHUK. I've been watching from the very first live stream and was instantly hooked. Around here, they call me 'Wheels' because I use a wheelchair, which also means I'm officially the fastest member of the crew. Rachel is the best boss ever - though when Ron starts singing, I still have to cover my ears! Even though I'm holding down the fort on the South Coast, I love being a small cog in this amazing machine. I absolutely love our incredible supporters and am so grateful I found this bunch. We aren't just a team; we're a family of unique personalities that all click together perfectly.
Hello everyone I'm Helen, Retford Ghost Hunters UK's mod. I've been watching Retford for nearly 4 years and become a mod just over a year ago. Love everything paranormal and love watching them.
I have been with RGH 6 years. I was introduced by Jan Barton. I first met Rachel on VIP at 30 East Drive, Rachel asked me to be a mod and I never looked back. I love them all.
Hello my name is Paula, and have been part of the RGH team for 10 months as a moderator. I absolutely love being part of the RGH family, such a lovely bunch of people with hearts of gold, and make me smile everyday. Who are simply the best paranormal team out there.
Hi, I'm Colette! I'm a Moderator for RGH, based in Worksop. I've been part of the team for nearly 2 years now and I really enjoy what I do. It's great to be part of such a supportive community, helping things run smoothly and making RGH a positive place for everyone.
Hi, I'm Emma-Lou! I'm a proud mum to two gorgeous girls and have been following Retford Ghost Hunters for four years. I've recently become a moderator, and I'm so pleased to be part of the team. I have a keen interest in the supernatural and the afterlife, and I'm fascinated by what might be beyond the world we know. I'm looking forward to sharing some spooky moments and helping keep the RGH community a friendly, welcoming place!
Hello lovelies! I'm Fiona and I've been a part of the fabulous RGH team of mods since 2023. My sister introduced me to the world of paranormal and I love it! I'm a mum of four, two boys and two girls (twins) and a Nanny to my little granddaughter. I have 5 fur babies, two dogs, two rabbits and a cat! Some useless info about me is that I love Harry Potter and Chris Hemsworth.
