That's really creepy! We were there in a group of 20 in 1991, and somebody unseen "ran" past us and pounded on a door - our guide said, "We think that's Catherine Howard". Somehow I think any place first owned by Cardinal Wolsey and then Henry VIII has to be haunted. It's beautiful, though.

ghosts are great, i love getting a good scare! my fiance's dad builds houses and one day he went to take pics of one of the houses that he built so he could put in on his website. well, when the pics came back there was a face in the window that looked like a little boy. no one had moved into the house yet and his dad swears noone else was there. i promise, promise when i find the pic on my computer, i'll post it!
it's pretty scary

ya people live there now, he was hired to build the house for some guy, i don't know if they've heard or seen anything. i'm not sure if he wants to tell them, that would go over well: "by the way the house i built for you is haunted" hahaha

ccdogmuffin-Neat pic! Does your fiance's father know the history of the land? That might account for a spirit in a new house.

jcat-All I can say is what a cool experience!

You should send that picture to those people who study ghosts and spirits ect. I'm sure they would love to investigate it.

I saw that this morning when I logged on. It's the best picture I've ever seen of a ghostly image. I wish there were more like that.

i just might send it to some ghost hunters or whatever, i don't know anything about the history of the land, but i'm sure i could find out. when you zoom in on the pic really close, it's like he has no face. it's gross

My ex-brother-in-law lives in a new house, and the kids (2 boys and a girl, aged 9 - 16) are really afraid to sleep there (he has them 2 - 3 nights a week) because they've had all sorts of freaky experiences and are convinced the house is haunted. We keep telling them that a new house can't be haunted, but are really wondering about the history of the land it stands on. The parcel of land was part of a farm for well over a hundred years, but since it is in Nebraska (outskirts of Omaha), we're wondering if it wasn't an Indian burial ground or the scene of a battle between Indians and the U.S. Cavalry. So far we haven't found any records. Having had several paranormal experiences that couldn't be explained away with faulty wiring or chips (for example, our microwave, which has gone on strike every Easter since we bought it in 1983), or an overactive imagination (a presence which boomed down the steps and trudged into the kitchen at a house my sister was renting at the time, and which my sister, her husband (a sceptic), my brother, my husband (a true sceptic) and I, plus two dogs and a cat, all heard and felt simultaneously), I believe there is such a thing as a ghost, though I don't believe that ghosts are necessarily malevolent.

I don't know why I came back in here.

I'm a skeptic. I'm even going to join the Australian Skeptics Society. Though I do keep an open mind about things.

It's the middle of the day again and, yup, I'm getting spooked again.
