1. Cock · Lane · Ghost
Perhaps the most famous among ghost stories in London is the 12-year-old daughter Elizabeth, a parish teacher called Richard Parsons in January 1762, who was condemned that the victims of homicide were killed from outside the tomb It is when I saw it on the road. Fanny Kent 's ghost, who was the senior director of Parsons, is aware that William Kent, the client of the Common Law, is aware of the original coded knock system (one big one and two no) I talked about how much poison was suffered. The story reached the newspaper and Parsons. Cock Lane 's house near St Paul was wrapped in journalists, clergy and tourists. One day, Cock Lane has become a popular destination for sensory seekers like frenzied asylum at Braml. Fanny, or Elizabeth, did not disappoint her audience. When William Kent was brought home, he accused him of going away with his wife and demonstrated his talent with the knockout momentum. Surprisingly, he denied it all. Visitors gathered at home. One was the writer Oliver Goldsmith and left an explanation of what he saw.
The audience seats each other, sits down, suppresses laughter, and waits for the scene to open. Since ghosts are incredibly angered, people who exist should conceal whether they have something if they can please their curiosity with this hiding. Fannie is angry when ghosts are usually silent, or when using the expression of a house, in the case of interviewing being too painful or ridiculous thought style before knocking begins or sometime. Sometimes, a committee was formed to conduct a semi-formal investigation into evil. The members included prominent doctors, pregnant women hospital Matron, poet, dictionary compiler, full literary work, Samuel Johnson. Fanny proved to be highly uncooperative in the form of Elizabeth Parsons and the committee was not impressed by the idea that the killed woman returned in search of revenge against her murderer . As Dr. Johnson wrote in "The Gentleman & # 39; Magazine", it is ... the opinion of the whole assembly, there are several arts that make specific noise and counterfeit, it is a high cause. By the summer of 1762, William Kent suffered this ghostly attack, filed a lawsuit against Richard Parsons and others and claimed conspiracy against him. The jury returned a verdict in favor of him and Parsons was sent to spend time in the sacrifice. The ghost of Cock Lane disappeared from the headline.
2. Gray Theater Royal Doulan Lane guy
In most theaters of London of any age, having at least one ghost is to go in and out of the auditorium or suddenly appear in the dressing room, scaring wit from an undoubted actor. For example, the Adelphi Theater is said to be haunted by a ghost of an actor, William Terriss, stabbed by a crazy enemy outside the stage entrance in 1897. The clown of the 19th century, Joseph Grimaldi, was seen in Sadler's Wells and still wears the makeup he made famous. Grimaldi has also been found in the Royal Theater of Drury Lane, but the most famous ghost there is the so-called Gray in Man. A ghost wearing a long gray coat and wearing a tribean hat will appear in the daytime, unlike most of the speech waiting for the magical time. It is said that seeing a gray man with rehearsal for the performance will work for the success of the show. Although some claim that they were murdered in theaters in 1780, no one knows who the ghosts are.
3. 50 Berkeley Square
It was frightening as Berkeley Square, once written as London's most ghostly house, was said to be the hometown of supernatural creatures. The most frequently repeated story shows two sailors who have invaded an unoccupied house to find a place to sleep at some point in the mid-19th century. They reluctantly chose their place of rest. In the morning, one of the crewmen was found dead and hit a railroad outside the house. Another sailor was still in the house, but it was being reduced to a crazy man. I agree to spend the night in the house and in Victorian books and magazines there are further stories of foolish individuals that a strange catastrophe was discovered. Various theories were advanced to explain the ghosts. Perhaps it was a strange relationship between the spirit of the former tenant, Mr. Mr., Scrooge of Christmas Carol and Miss Habisham of great expectation? After trembling at the wedding, he is a day. It was probably a ghost of another tenant's mad brother who was closed in the attic. 50 The problem of all stories of Berkeley Square is that they owe it to literature rather than historical reality. Sir Leeton's first story in 1859, "Haunted and Howniers", tells the story of a man who agreed to spend the night at a ghostly house, remarkably similar to the 50-year-old Berkeley Square, There is a possibility that it influenced the story after as if it is a fact. 50 Currently, Maggs & Co, an archaean's bookstore, is located in Berkeley Square. They have not reported supernatural activities to the convention
4. The British Museum Ghost
The curse of the mummy and the spirit of ancient Egyptians who died in the room of the British Museum for many years have been spoken for decades. One specific mummy belongs to a young girl who served as God Amunra and is a focus of many topics. Security guards insisted that they could feel a terrible presence near the mummy during night patrolling. A photographer taking a picture of the mummy, after developing the camera in the darkroom, killed himself and saw what the camera revealed. The subway station of the former British Museum is no longer being used and was said to be plagued by ghosts of ancient Egyptians.
5. Ghost Tower in London
Many people are hospitalized in the tower, and many people attach to the walls and tower green. Of the related guests of more famous towers, it is discovered that they are still walking in rooms and corridors are Anne Boleyn, Sir Walter Raleigh, Guy Forks, Tower Princess. The most dramatic of the multiple entrances to the tower is the ghostly re-establishment of the murdered execution of Countess Salisbury said to occur on the anniversary of her death in 1541. The Countess was sentenced to death. Henry VIII was mainly because of her son's rebellion, and she had remote insistence on the throne. She went to her deadly reluctantly to her death and had to be chased around the block by a court enforcement sticking to her repeatedly with his ax before eventually falling.
6. Ghost of bear of chain walk
Not all London ghosts are human beings. In the 19th century and early 20th century years, ghost-like bears were regularly seen in Cheyne Walk, Chelsea's residential gardens. This crop was regarded as one of the bears to die in the ruins in the 16th century but may have its origin in the cemeteries of foreign animals bred in 16th chain walk by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in the 1860s. Absent. Rossetti owned kangaroo, armadillo, zeus, brown bull and dark black bear, but in each case his garden was running. The poet 's strange pet' s story may have contributed to the sighting of the spectacle bear around Chelsea 's back garden.
7. University Hospital - Nurse's Ghost
Naturally, hospitals regularly attract ghost stories. In most cases, the nurse seems to be returning to the original workplace. A gray lady at St. Thomas Hospital appears in a patient who is supposed to die, usually only looking upwards from the knee. This is probably because the floor level is realized in wards that have changed over the years. University College Hospital on Gower Street also has its own spectator visitors. It is said that she was a ghost of a nurse who mistakenly caused the patient to take morphine excessively and was hurt by mistake, so she killed himself. Spirit is regularly seen in both patients and staff. Ghosts wearing remarkably old-fashioned uniforms are still enjoying the benefits of the patients of the heart to the fullest, and many people admire the kind treatment received from nurses who no one else can see.
8. Collins Music Hall, Islington Ghost
Sam Vagg is a chimney sweep in London, a singer called Samuel Collins at Ireland's Central Victorian Central British pub and music hall. In 1862 he took over the Islington Green The Lansdowne Arms pub and resumed as Collins Music Hall. Collins himself died three years later was only 39 years old, his theater prospered and the majority of the great names of the music hall of fame was played there at some point in their career. Gracie Fields made London debut in Collins in 1912. For many years the founders did not like to tear themselves from the theatrical theme that was given their name, and ghosts of ghosts were seen regularly. Collins was destroyed by fire in 1958 and was not rebuilt. The branch of Waterstone stands on the scene.
9. The ghost bank of England
During the excavation related to the reconstruction of the bank in 1933, a coffin was found in the old garden court. The 7-foot long coffin belonged to a bank secretary called William Jenkins who died in 1798. His age was unusually high - he was over 6 feet 7 inches - Jenkins confirmed his final body captor seized his corpse because of his curiosity value and gave it to the surgeon for autopsy Illness with the idea of selling it. His friends, as employees who worked for many years, persuaded the bank supervisor that Mr. Jenkins executed the death penalty under the protection of the bank and was buried in the garden court in the morning before the start of the project. Jenkins' tall ghost is still said to be walking in the corridor of the bank.
Passers at midnight were in the early 19th century dress, facing a woman asking if he saw his older brother. This is a ghost called "bank nun". In 1812, our clerk called Whitehead hung the bills counterfeited. For the last 25 years, Sarah, a crazy little sister by his brother 's death, came to the bank everyday and I was convinced that he was still working there. She became familiar to the bankers who call her her "Bank Nan". For the long black dress she always wore. Sarah Whitehead 's ghost was also seen at the bank' s subway station.
10. Phantom bus of Ladbroke Grove
One of the legendary towns of the longest in the West of Western London conveys a ghostly bus that it often happens to trace the road of Ladbroke Grove early in the morning in the mid-1930s. The bus was usually witnessed at the intersection of St Mark & # 39; s Road and Cambridge Gardens, claiming that dozens of people saw it. I was walking around the corner. & # 39; According to one witness, I saw the bus smoke towards me, the top deck and the bottom deck's lights and headlights were full, but the crew and passers-by did not. A junction with a blind corner in both directions has a reputation as a black spot of the accident, and at the beginning a phantom bus was added to this. Several car accidents happened to the shock drivers watching it. Sometimes, the Council straightened the road at the confluence point, no longer a ghostly red two-story builder could be seen.
