Haunted Evesham – Ghosts, Poltergeists & Strange Encounters

Evesham may be famous for its abbey and the bloody Battle of Evesham, but some of the town's strangest stories are found behind closed doors.

In this episode of Ghost Tales by the Fireside, we explore the ghosts and hauntings of Evesham and the surrounding Vale. There is a mysterious little boy sitting beside a fireplace who nobody else remembers seeing, a shadowy monk that walks straight through a wall, unexplained footsteps heard in an apparently empty building, and a presence in a pub cellar that seems to follow a passage that no longer exists.

We also visit the Spirit House and its much darker paranormal reputation, look at strange activity associated with Evesham's old Quaker prison, and venture beyond the town into the older folklore of the Vale, where phantom coaches, headless figures and other strange traditions have survived.

Some of these stories are centuries old. Others were experienced by people in comparatively recent times.

And perhaps that is what makes Evesham so interesting.

The town has changed.

Its ghosts apparently haven't.

Ghost Tales by the Fireside explores Britain's haunted places through true ghost stories, history, folklore and local legend.
