Are we haunted?
Ghostly goings-on at The Old Vicarage
Rumour has it, that here at the Old Vicarage Hotel, guests have experienced paranormal activity.
Some of our guests have described the following:
With reference to our recent stay in room 8 and our brief conversation in the garden as we were leaving.
Well.. Where to start had no idea of the haunted history! And look forward to the discovery documentary.
I had a few experiences during our stay had a chat with a soldier? Dressed in red and white, tall 6ft plus, a pleasant fellow, showed me his uniform, also two children in the bedroom wanted to play with me, and from my recall a lady dressed in blue, who I asked if I could touch to see if she was real!
My hand did not dissappear through her, she appeared very solid and her clothing was like crepe and fine lace.
No negative feelings all positive.Regards
