ANCIENT BIDDULPH AND THE MYSTERY OF MEONIA was a special, one-day anniversary event hosted by Graham Phillips. Following our previous Biddulph tours, which explored the location's strange history and the mysterious Meonia group, we focused on the remarkable events sparked by experiences at Biddulph Grange. Not only astonishing true stories from Graham's books, The Green Stone, The Eye of Fire, and Strange Fate, but also extraordinary paranormal events revealed for the first time.
When? Saturday 20th September 2025.
Where? Biddulph, England.
It began on 20th September 1980, when people across Britain independently received a strange invitation. Unknown to each other, a BBC PA from Liverpool and a telecom engineer from Cheshire shared a remarkable dream of the same overgrown Egyptian temple somewhere in England, which they felt they must find. In the Shropshire countryside, an elderly Spiritualist medium saw a vision of a woman in white calling her to the same location. And in Wolverhampton, two teachers simultaneously entered trance-like states and told those nearby that they needed to go to an Egyptian temple in the centre of England.
When more people began contacting the offices of Strange Phenomena magazine with similar stories, where Graham Phillips worked as an investigator, the location was identified: a mock Egyptian temple in the grounds of Biddulph Grange in Staffordshire. Along with fellow researcher Andrew Collins and others who had received this strange invitation, Graham explored the overgrown gardens and neglected temples for the first time. Thus began the remarkable story of Biddulph Grange, a key site in Graham Phillips’s books, The Green Stone (1984), The Eye of Fire (1986), and Strange Fate (2023).
