WALKING IN HERTFORDSHIRE | GREAT AND LITTLE HORMEAD
This 4 mile day walk in and around the villages of Great and Little Hormead in Hertfordshire was completed by myself and Candice.
The weather was decent for this time of year (no more snow!) and the route mostly traversed footpaths across arable land and beside streams, with a short section or two of country lanes.
The churches of each village were the main highlights on this short stroll. Sadly the oldest of the two was closed due to renovation work by the Churches Conservation Trust. It does date back to Norman times after all! Even the pub was closed!

The Tower of London
The Tower of London is yet another ghostly location where Anne Boleyn, the evil wife of Henry VIII and also the two princes, namely, Edward (12 years old) and Richard (9 years old) were executed along with many other prisoners. In fact, all these individuals had been subjected to inhuman torture before meeting their doom. The headless figure of the ill-fated queen is often seen at her execution site. Even the two princes have been observed clutching each other in sheer intimidation before their tormentors.
Glasgow Necropolis, Scotland
It is quite natural for a cemetery to be haunted particularly if it belongs to the Victorian era, and the Glasgow Necropolis is no exception to this. Moreover, there has been a myth associated with this particular symmetry which involves a vampire with iron teeth. Also, on many occasions, the ghostly figure of a white lady has been witnessed moving across the cemetery. Apart from this, there have been reports of other types of paranormal activities, right here that will surely give you sleepless nights.
British Transport Police Station
This location in the UK has been said to be occupied by a male ghost. In fact, in the year 1977 one person heard a loud door slam in the British Transport Police Station. He discovered some footsteps that led to a toilet and when he followed it, to his dismay, he found none there. Three decades later, almost the same experience was encountered by another person in the same area.
Woodchester Mansion, Gloucestershire
The fourth most haunted locations the UK is arguably Woodchester Mansion. Ii is situated in Gloucestershire, where individuals claim to have been assaulted by ghosts even physically. Although the structure might appear to be complete from outside, you will find many rooms that are not yet complete which are obviously perfect for an unnerving ambiance. Many paranormal activities have been cited here and among those, mention may be made of a spooky horseman as well as a ghost in the basement.
Portsmouth Historic Dockyard
In case you happen to be in this dockyard, don’t be surprised if you find some sailors getting involved in a brawl while having a drink. It has been told that one criminal named Jack the Painter was responsible for an attempt to put this dockyard under fire. He was nabbed and eventually executed. And, his decomposed body was displayed to others as a warning. Even now, one can hear the sound of chains from time to time.
Borley Rectory, Essex
The next haunted location in this list is going to be Borley Rectory in Essex. It was completely destroyed by fire in the year 1939, and since then many paranormal activities had been reported by lots of witnesses. Moreover, these abnormal activities have been confirmed by the paranormal scientists who performed adequate research in this region. Footsteps are heard here after dark and there are also other instances of ghostly activities including; Two headless horsemen along with their carriage, the ghost of a nun and also many other such types of incidents. All these should be enough to assert that Borley Rectory is definitely a spooky place for anyone to visit.
Pluckley, Kent
This is debatably the most haunted village in the UK. Amongst the scariest activities that have been witnessed here, mention may be made of flickering lights in a local church, some frightening screams as well as the appearance of a tree on the highway with a man pinned to it by multiple swords. These are only a few of the hair-raising incidents in this ghostly village. And because of this, it has found the first position in this particular listing.

PRESTBURY - England's most haunted village.
The village of Prestbury, on the outskirts of Cheltenham Spa, is reputed to have more recorded apparitions than anywhere else in the country. As many as five are witnessed on some days and at certain times of the year. This visit was during the day and shows the village High Street, and Church Street, the graveyard where the Dark Monk is often seen since the church itself was exorcised. Views here are of the outside and interior of the church, showing the central aisle where the Monk used to walk (or 'glide', as was often described).
Spooky St Mary's, Churchyard (Walkern) ?
I received a message from one of my subscribers telling me to visit Walkern Church, It's Haunted she said and when she visited one night with friends she could hear moaning coming from the Churchyard, they were too frightened to enter,
Now as you all know, I don't visit these places at night, I take a look at them during the daylight hours and having read up on the Church and it's history discovered that Jane Wenham was driven from Walkern by an angry mob who believed her to be a witch. She was later tried as such in Hertford. It is said that after her death she returned to haunt the area around the church.
Now you have the chance to join me in a walk around the graveyard .....
Most Haunted village in England. PRESTBURY. Tony 'Alex' Alexandrovic.
The church, St.Mary's, was haunted by the 'Black Abbot' until he was exorcised - he is now often seen in the churchyard at Night. He manifests at Christmas, Easter and All Saints Day and often after funerals. This visit was on a sunlit day on 23 April 2013. Apologies for the gloom inside the church itself. There are additional ghosts in the village. Google 'The Prestbury Ghosts'. One thing I noticed after seeing this video uploaded, was the 'clicking' noise which began when I closed-up on the churchboard. It became more intense as I enered the porch. My camera does not make that noise. The sound remains firmly unexplained...
