A CHART-TOPPING girl band were left petrified after going ghost busting for a TV show at a haunted North Wales manor house.
The singers from Girls Aloud got the fright of their lives when they spent the night at Plas Teg near Mold.
Cheryl Cole, Kimberley Walsh, Sarah Harding and Nicola Roberts joined spook hunter Yvette Fielding for a TV special at the infamous Jacobean mansion. It’s due to be screened on ITV2 next month.
The other band member, Nadine Coyle, refused to go inside at all.
The 400-year-old hall is said to be home to a horde of ghosts and has featured in numerous documentaries and articles.
Resident spooks are believed to include the home’s former owner, John Trevor, his wife Elizabeth and a mystery young girl.
The notorious Judge Jeffreys is also connected to the hall, supposedly sentencing men, women and children to death by hanging in the dining room.
At first the four stars, whose recent hit Something Kinda Oooh stormed up the charts, were keen to take up the challenge of touring the property.
But no sooner had they set foot inside, Plas Teg’s spirits gave them rather too much to "ooh" about.
Within minutes Yvette hears knocking in the dining room.
Sarah starts to get emotional and claims she feels like she is standing in somebody’s grave.
The girls scream after huddling together with Yvette who asks if there is anybody there to be met with three apparent knocks
In the Regency Room all appears quiet.
But the supposedly haunted Panelled Room leaves Cheryl, married to England Chelsea soccer star Ashley Cole, in tears.
She gets hysterical, claiming somebody is prodding her, leaving the other girls in tears.
"This is not funny," she said: "This is really freaking me out. Why does he want to do that?"
Nicola decides she has overstayed her welcome and leaves.
But the others decide to go ahead with a planned seance.
A huge bang is heard behind them. Sarah is in floods of tears.
And then the table supposedly moves, leaving the girls admitting they do believe in ghosts.
Sarah said: "I was up for doing this, I still am but I don’t like the vibes in that."
Ghosthunting with Girls Aloud will be broadcast on ITV2 on December 12 at 9pm.
