That went from ghost sighting to ghost stories real quick

I thought this was going to be clips of ghosts seen not clips of movies

My sister works in a pub and there’s a ghost called George - he was a fireman and he also played football for that club back in the 1920s, in 1923 there was a fire at the clubhouse and he got killed in it - he haunts the upstairs which used to be the main room and its currently under a refurb so all sort of shit happens 😂 there’s a photo of the old football team and he is sitting on the roof with a pipe 🚬, the upstairs stinks of tobacco, lights flicker, curtains and blinds move without wind, keys are on the floor instead of in doors, stock goes missing, alarms go off, all sorts happens 😂😬😖

..why has no one done an in-depth investigation of this. It’s the best spirit capture of all time!

One of the most unusual British ghost stories I've heard has to be the story of Old Willum, the ghost of an old local man who haunts the Ferry Inn pub at the village of Stokesby, Norfolk. Many people have spotted the ghost over the years and some have even had conversations with him. Old Willum's ghost has even offered to buy people drinks, but as soon as he walks over to the bar, he just mysteriously disappears!!!

Interesting sighting regarding the Roman ghosts spotted marching below the ground where the paved road used to be. Makes you think ghosts are merely “memory footprints” that the Earth’s magnetic field saved and is playing over and over again.

Sounds good

Then we get load of bollocks about werewolves in Hull, a hearse from a Bram Stoker novel and a vampire. Oh and some witches

Nuns were NEVER bricked up as a punishment. The myth probably comes from an Anchoress who withdrew from life and opted for permanent enclosure in cells. This followed a religious ceremony which resembled the funeral rite.

I live in Norfolk. There is a lot of activity around this county.

Actually you got one thing wrong in the video. Hampton Court was not built for Henry VIII, but for Cardinal Wolsey. He had Hampton Court built using an Italian architect after visiting a monastery in Italy, and had it designed as an Italian Renaissance Palace. It was only when he appeared to be falling out of favour with Henry VIII that Cardinal Wolsey gifted Hampton Court to Henry VIII.

Hampton Court was actually built for the Archbishop of Canterbury under Henry Vlll, but he gifted it to the king after backlash of the Bishop having a more palatial home than what Henry Vlll had.

".. and eating a German shepherd"? What? That's extraordinary!
Simce Brexit there are very few Germans locally, and none of them are shepherds.
Do you think he ate a DOG? And the dog was a German Shepherd? Or was he entirely mistaken, and the dog was a Labradoodle? There are lots of those around at the moment.

That's a real ghost closing those doors, people just deny it because, "it looks too good", that's a ghost, no trick.

In Hampton Court it is said you can see the ghost of Catherine Howard. She ran to Henry and pleaded with him not to have her killed. It is said you can see her walking down the corridor she'll stop and run down the hall with a terrified look on her face.

That’s a “yes” to anything to do with Whitby. If not “yes”, then certainly “I wouldn’t be surprised. Incredibly haunted/beautiful place.

I live near Hampton court palace, and when I ever go it’s so boring.

[madiola]

the Hampton court lady ghost was 2003 and when I read in our local newspaper they said the door alarms would go off from time to time

[gazwoods]

I live in york and I've seen the treasurers house, very scary place, and I wouldn't go in the cellars "not a chance " 🇬🇧✊🏼

[johnwalsh]

That was click bait. I hate those videos where they ask you to subscribe at the beginning. And then show nothing relating to the thumbnail.

How do you get an English guy who doesn’t know how to pronounce English words?
