More tea Vicar? #11

...ns of our ghost was buried – the small child whose cries we often heard. She was buried in the churchyard and we had found her grave after hearing the noises and stories about her. I think she was about 9 years old. My mum at the ghost girl's grave   Because we lived at the Hall the vicar expected to see us at church every week; however, weekends were our busy time so we didn’t go every week but managed to attend at Easter and Christmas. I have to say we were non too keen on going to church as we had to be on our best behaviour (something which didn’t sit easily with us as you’ve probably guessed!). Afterwards though we all went across the road t...

Ghouls Galore! #17

...be making ghostly sounds and chasing each other into dark rooms off the main route. Good job no-one could hear us! As everyone had heard about the ghost stories at the Hall, occasionally at these parties we would make an ouija board and try and contact the spirits. Most people had had a few spirits of a different kind by then and we would all sit round the table watching the glass move around the board wondering who was pushing it. Afterwards no-one admitted that they did and then we’d all be wondering and worrying! Once, while playing this game, a curtain along with the pole fell down from the window and freaked us all out! One or two people were really into...

Things that go bump in the night #3

...eries and ghosts but when you’re actually in the middle of it in real life, it’s a bit different! The haunted attic corridor   My parents also heard noises in their bedroom. It sounded like a room full of people talking, like at a party. They couldn’t work out if it was birds nesting under the eaves so they slept in another room down the corridor to see if they still heard it – and sure enough, they did! What was going on? Had we disturbed some lost souls forever wandering in the attics? One night my mum was woken up by the sight of a little girl ‘floating’ over the bed. She said the girl was wearing a long nightdress and mop cap and seemed...
