A group of 12 or so people came up with an unusual story after they were stopped by police - they were out hunting ghosts.
A member of the group was found to be in possession of a number of pieces of apparent ghost-hunting paraphernalia - including a chair leg, metal pipe, and what looks like a short samurai-style sword in its scabbard.
PC Jon Parker reported on Twitter the group was stopped in the mid-Norfolk village of West Raynham, near Fakenham, overnight between Wednesday, March 7 and Thursday, March 8.
PC Parker said: “Called to a report of a dozen people acting suspiciously around West Raynham.
