Howley ready to spook the celebs

Well known conductor and cornet star is hopefully getting in touch with the spirits to scare the pants off a few reality celebs...

Celebs
  The reality television stars will get spooked thanks to Chris Howley and his spirited team of helpers...

Well known brass band conductor and cornet player Chris Howley can be seen in a very different sphere of activity tonight on Channel 5Star (Wednesday — 9.00pm).

He is taking part in a 90 minute live ghost hunting broadcast at Harwich Fort with five reality television stars in a programme hosted by Rylan Clark-Neal.

Chilled to the marrow

Those who will hopefully be chilled to the marrow by a little something that goes bump in the night will be Charlotte Crosby, Stephen Bear, Chris Hughes, Charlotte Dawson and Ampika Pickston.

Chris has been involved in what was first a hobby and is now a burgeoning career some years ago, and has since been asked to be part of many television programmes and scientific projects all around Europe.

I really enjoy it and we are going to an amazing, atmospheric location. We hope to have the celebs well and truly spooked by the end of the nightChris Howley
