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.

Tours de Londres

900 ans d'histoire sont inscrits dans les murs à tourelles épais de la tour de Londres. Initialement construite en tant que forteresse par Guillaume le Conquérant en 1066, la tour de Londres a été agrandie au fil des ans par plusieurs monarques. Sa partie la plus unique et également la plus ancienne, la Tour Blanche, date de 1078 et symbolisait la suprématie normande. Bien qu’ayant servi de résidence royale et d’armurerie, elle est célèbre pour avoir été une prison et le site de nombreuses exécutions, en particulier d’Anne Boleyn et Catherine Howard. Elizabeth I, Sir Walter Raleigh et le prince Edward V figurent parmi les autres personnalités célèbres à y avoir été emprisonnées. Les histoires de trahison, de complots et d’espionnage sont monnaie courante dans ces murs historiques, avec d’innombrables secrets qui n’attendent qu’à être découverts. Les corbeaux y sont également une curiosité et l’on dit qu’ils protègent la couronne britannique. De nos jours, la tour de Londres est un musée et elle abrite les fabuleux joyaux de la couronne. Des visites du châteaux sont proposées par les Yeoman Warders, aussi communément appelés les Beefeaters.
