The Chaining at Castle Vale

Here are some photographs that I took after a seance held at Castle Vale on Saturday 5th April 2008.   This seance was special in the way in which the medium was restrained.   The chair although not unusual had had a number of restraints added which included the use of industrial chains, chains in triple lines running through large hose pipe and the all padlocked together in the following way.

Before sitting in the chair, the medium, Warren Caylor, was searched by a sitter.   We then placed on his upper arms (one on each) a retraint that consisted of three chains running through a plastic hose, these restraints were brought together and welded (before the seance) which formed a complete circle.  A chain link hung down to enable attachment to the chair..   He was then asked to sit in the chair these  arm restraints were then attached to the security chains attached to the chair by bolts and chains that had been welded together.   A chain was also placed accross his front from one side of the chair to the othe and secured in the same manner.

His wrists were the secured with the same type of tight fittings padlocked and again attached to the chair vie chains and padlocks.

His feet underwent the same process.

All of the restraints that were used were designed by me and when used were witnessed by twelve other sitters.   Warren or his circle members had not seen any of this until the night in question.   The keys to all the padlocks were held by a visiting sitter.

All the top clothing was removed almost immediately the seance started with included a T Shirt and a Jumper.    All the padlocks and chains were intact but one of the retaining bolts was broken.  but the chains were still joined together by padlocks which can be seen on the photo's
