The paranormal and supernatural continues to mesmerise humans to this day, and the United Kingdom and Ireland have plenty of such amazing locations which really up the spook factor. Be it castles with dark, blood-riddled past, strange satanic rituals undertaken in mysterious ruins, or the sinister witch trials and their ghostly aftermath, these places are guaranteed to give visitors the chills.


Ancient Ram Inn

The Ancient Ram Inn is one of the most famous haunted buildings in Britain, and with good reason. The former inn has reported several ghostly sightings over the years which includes witches, and demonic entities. The owners of the building host an open house from time to time and visitors can explore the ancient hallways and decide for themselves if the place lives up to the hype. Amazingly, the feeling of strange presence and an oppressive force is reported even today by intrepid ghost hunters.

Pendle Hill

The Pende Hill is a mystic beauty. Located to Lancashire's east, the hill lies near the Burnley, Nelson, Colne, Clitheroe and Padiham towns. Standing at a height of 557 meters (1,827 feet) above sea level, the hill is the source of Borough of Pendle's name. Falling in the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the hill is a vast carpet of greenery and natural wonder. The hill was notorious for the witchcraft that took place in the 17th century when the Pendle Witches trial was unearthed. However, the hill still manages to surprise every onlooker all thanks to its astounding splendor.

Cannock Chase Forest

Cannock Chase Forest is a great place to soak in some of the fresh air of the English countryside. Besides being reputed as a land covered with beautiful pine trees, this forest is also rich in mining and military history. The Cannock Chase Forest is also a popular events venue owing to its amazing scenic beauty. While the natural beauty is undisputed, the forests have also gained some reputation thanks to some mysterious sightings of wildlife.

Tay Bridge

The Tay Railway Bridge is a 19th Century bridge and is one of the most iconic sights in the city of Dundee. The bridge replaced the old bridge, which collapsed in 1879, known as the Tay Bridge Disaster. While the current structure is admirable to look at, paranormal enthusiasts visit the bridge on the anniversary of the disaster to catch a glimpse of the ghostly train, which apparently still makes it rounds, following the trajectory of its crash.

Tower of London

900 Jahre Geschichte sind in den dicken, mit Türmen versehenen Mauern des Tower of London verankert. Ursprünglich wurde der Tower of London 1066 von Wilhelm dem Eroberer als Festung erbaut und im Laufe der Jahre von verschiedenen Monarchen erweitert. Sein markantestes Merkmal ist auch sein ältester Turm, der White Tower, dessen Erbauung auf das Jahr 1078 durch Wilhelm dem Eroberer als Symbol der normannischen Überlegenheit zurückgeht. Obwohl der Tower of London als königliche Residenz, Waffenkammer und Münzstätte genutzt wird, ist er vor allem für seine Funktion als Gefängnis und als Ort zahlreicher Hinrichtungen, insbesondere von Anne Boleyn und Katharina Howard, bekannt. Elisabeth I., Sir Walter Raleigh und Prinz Edward V. sind einige der anderen berühmten Persönlichkeiten, die hier gefangen gehalten wurden. Geschichten von Verrat, Verschwörung und Spionage sind in diesen historischen Mauern allgegenwärtig und unzählige Geheimnisse warten nur darauf, entdeckt zu werden. Ein weiteres Kuriosum sind die Raben, die die britische Krone schützen sollen. Heute ist der Tower of London ein Museum und die Heimat der fabelhaften Kronjuwelen. Führungen durch das Schloss werden von den Yeomen Warders, im Volksmund auch die Beefeaters genannt, durchgeführt.
