Барабанщик из Тедуорта - это случай предполагаемого проявления полтергейста в западной части Англии, описанный Джозефом Гланвиллом в его книге Saducismus Triumphatus (1681).
В ранних отчетах сообщалось, что в 1661 году местный землевладелец Джон Момпессон, владелец дома в городке Тедворт (теперь он называется Тидворт в Уилтшире), подал иск против нелицензированного бродячего барабанщика Уильяма Друри, которого он обвинил в сборе денег с помощью лжи. После того, как он добился судебного решения против барабанщика, местный судебный пристав передал барабан Момпессону.
Затем Момпессон обнаружил, что его дом охвачен ночными барабанными звуками. Утверждалось, что барабанщик наслал эти шумы на голову Момпессона колдовством. Говорят, что Друри был связан с бандой цыган .
Гланвилл, посетивший дом в 1663 году, утверждал, что слышал странные царапающие звуки под кроватью в детской комнате.
Оригинальная новость
Early accounts reported that in 1661 a local landowner, John Mompesson, owner of a house in the town of Tedworth (now called Tidworth, in Wiltshire), had brought a lawsuit against an unlicensed vagrant drummer William Drury, whom he accused of collecting money by false pretences. After he had won judgment against the drummer, the drum was turned over to Mompesson by the local bailiff. Mompesson then found his house plagued by nocturnal drumming noises. It was alleged that the drummer had brought these plagues of noise upon Mompesson's head by witchcraft. Drury was said to have been associated with a band of gypsies.
Glanvill, who visited the house in 1663, had claimed to have heard strange scratching noises under a bed in the children's room.
On Christmas Day 1667, Samuel Pepys, in his diary, records his wife, Elizabeth, reading the story to him. He found it to be "a strange story of spirits and worth reading indeed."
In 1668, Glanvill published one of the earlier versions of Saducismus Triumphatus, his A Blow at Modern Sadducism ... To which is added, The Relation of the Fam'd Disturbance by the Drummer, in the House of Mr. John Mompesson.
In Volume III of The Works of the Reverend John Wesley there is a reference to the Drummer at Tedworth.
The famous instance of this, which has been spread far and wide, was the drumming in Mr Mompesson's house at Tedworth; who, it was said, acknowledged, 'It was all a trick, and that he had found out the whole contrivance.' Not so, my eldest brother, then at Christ Church, Oxon, inquired of Mr Mompesson, his fellow collegian, 'Whether his father had acknowledged this or not.' He answered, 'The resort of gentlemen to my father's house was so great, he could not bear the expense. He therefore took no pains to confute the report, that he had found out the cheat: although he and I, and all the family knew the account which was published, to be punctually true.'
