Ghosts of Belgrave Hall

In 1999, Belgrave Hall became famous across the world when two ghostly figures were recorded on security cameras outside the Hall. The building remains of interest to ghost hunters to this day with a number of unexplained sightings. The ISPR (International Society for Paranormal Research) visited Belgrave Hall and identified quite a few cold spots and residual forces / energies at the building.

The building which is now a museum has had numerous visitors report seeing an old-fashioned lady on the stairs as well as hearing footsteps behind them and when they turn round there is no one there. Poltergeist activity has also been reported around the lower rooms with objects mysteriously disappearing and reappearing days later.
