Jayne, who investigates haunted dolls for her company, HD Paranormal, said: "The cabinet has no doors, so you would have to physically lift all four sides and the base off to move it.

"For us there is no point in faking your own evidence as it's only tricking yourself - this footage is real. 

"Our ultimate goal is to find out as much as we can about the spirit and then try to understand why he is still here." 

Jayne has been investigating spiritual attachment to haunted puppets for 17-years after training as a psychologist. 

She added: "This video evidence is real and more difficult for us to disprove than people believing they have had paranormal experiences from other haunted dolls."

The puppet's former owner, John, inherited the 1960s toy after his father's death and claims to have experienced minor haunting experiences. 

But they all built up to one evening where he believes the spirit attached to the puppet was choking him. 

He said: "I cleared out all of my dad's belongings apart from the puppet, which I left on the drawer by my bed for some reason and that night it felt like I was being choked.

"I was wide awake in bed and thought I saw a shadow move from one side of the window to the other and worried something was trying to scare us.

"Then without warning my throat suddenly went really tight, I've never had anyone's hands around my throat before so it was really scary.

"While I was choking I tried to wake my wife but it took her ages to come round. 

"When she did I remember looking straight at the puppet sitting on the drawers near our bed and realising it was him." 

John says the haunting experience began two weeks after inheriting the puppet, which he reluctantly kept because it was one of his father's favourite possessions.

"Two weeks after inheriting the puppet I started to have really bad headaches and feeling dizzy, which I never thought could be the puppet."

After the final incident where John claims to have been choked he contacted Jayne Harris from the HD Paranormal investigation team who started to investigate the puppet and unusual experiences.

He added: "Once Jayne took away the doll both me and my wife felt much better.

"That night I slept properly for the first time in months - the headaches, the footsteps, everything stopped and that's when I knew it definitely was the puppet.

"The fact that there's video evidence now makes me uncomfortable to be honest, I wouldn't watch it as I don't need any more proof that it was haunted.

"I lived with the puppet for months and it did more than enough to convince me."
