Some celebrity stardust was sprinkled on a city-based filmmaking company's new paranormal documentary.
Matt Long, from Costessey, was Bulldog Films' producer of the project and an on-screen presenter during the spooky investigation.
Paranormal Raw saw the Norwich company join forces with West Five Bar in London, a former pub next to Ealing Cemetery, and they wanted to bring on a celebrity guest presenter to work alongside Matt.

Pop star Mutya Buena was up for the challenge, so the former Sugababes star went ghost hunting.
Matt, 42, said: “Mutya was lovely to work with, she was up for anything.
“I would happily work with her again. She works hard and deserves all the success.”

Mutya was a member of the original Sugababes line-up but left in 2005, returning in 2011 and being part of their UK tour last year. The band enjoyed six UK number-one hits.
The documentary was titled Paranormal Raw with the intention of stripping back the usual style of paranormal investigating and inviting audiences to see things they don’t usually get shown.
However, when heading out to film the pilot, Matt was sceptical.
He said: “I wasn’t sure if we would capture anything, but we had activity before the cameras even started roiling.
“We managed to get loads of activity on camera despite our efforts to debunk it.
“Adam Sturman from the production team and Mutya attracted a lot of activity.”

Matt has more recently been shocked by interest from Terrence Winter, known for his work as a writer and producer on The Sopranos, Tulsa King and Boardwalk Empire – who has started his own distribution streaming service and is interested in picking up Paranormal Raw.
Matt said: “It took time to sink in, but I am humbled it was picked as it shows we have done something right.”
UK audiences can buy the first episode featuring Matt and the Sugababes star from Google Play and it will soon be available to buy on Apple TV as well.
