Dunkenhalgh Hall, Clayton-le-Moors,nr.Accrington. This is now a popular hotel,but was once the home of the Walmesley family,then Petre family. The Petre family employed a French Governess called Lucette in the 18th century,she fell in love with a visitor to the hall and became pregnant by him,he refused to marry her,so she threw herself into the nearby Hyndburn River. Her ghost,shrouded in white is seen in the hotel grounds around Christmas time
happy reading

Re: Ghosts and haunted buildings.
Has anyone heard of the proposed 'ghost walk' that is currently being planned for accrington town centre? I read something about it a while ago in the Observer...... didnt think we had enough ghosts to warrant a full walk........ maybe there are some that have just stayed hidden for a while

Re: Ghosts and haunted buildings.
Dont think salmsbury is spooky at all.
Speke Hall in Liverpool is a good place to visit.

Re: Ghosts and haunted buildings.
What was the name of the pub across from the cop shop on manchester rd ?I think it was the Hargreaves arms but could be wrong, anyhow the landlord used to say how haunted it was and I think look north did a prog about it in the 70s.

I've only just seen this thread. What happened to the forum Neal? I tried the link but it didn't lead anywhere. Is that a temporary hitch or didn't the idea take off?

Re: Ghosts and haunted buildings.
This is not a publicity stunt but at The Miners Arms ther is realy strange things happening, glasses exploding, objects flying, lightbulbs falling out of fittings, shadows passing and people standing ther one second and gone the next when the pub is open and closed. Im not soft but when i have to set up upstairs i hate it my hair stands on end. can anyone explain why? This is before i'v hit the spirits.

Re: Ghosts and haunted buildings.
what about that house in church that was said to be haunted, think it was on queensway (might be wrong). It was said that the house 'which was council house' was not being used for tenancy anymore because of the amount of people that had moved in then moved back out. supposed to be a real bad spirit in there
