Five Most Haunted Pubs of England

England's got some old pubs, some disturbing events that happened in them, and now some ghosts that remain! Here's five of these pubs and what occurred in them.

Yeah, there is such a thing, and quite a few! Here's a few that stand out and the stories behind it all.

The Mermaid Inn

 

Parts of the building date back to the middle of the twelfth century, so perhaps ghostliness is only to be expected. Visitors have said to have actually seen ghosts, or had their clothes rearranged by one.

Grenadier

 

The story goes that a man, who was also an officer, was caught in this very pub cheating at cards. His opponents in a fit of rage pushed him down the stairs, where he fell to his death. Visitors have claimed to have seen visions of the officer, as well as mysterious shadows.

Hyde Tavern

A woman died here from being too cold and famished. She is said to haunt the place and to rip the bedding off of beds; perhaps in anger of the fate she suffered in the cold.

The Brushmakers Arms

 

 

 A man was mugged and murdered here a few hundred years ago. He is said to lurk the building, searching for the money that was stolen from him.

The Ostrich Inn

Disturbing, this one is. The owners, a husband and wife pair, murdered their guests brutally after capturing them through trap doors. Strange occurrences have happened since, as if the ghosts of those poor souls murdered still linger through the halls.

Really interesting stuff. I'm not of the mind that when you're dead, you're dead!...I believe if there's some score to be settled, whether good or bad, just any "unfinished business", that spirits want to (and sometimes do) stick around to take care of it. I'd love to visit some of those joints!
