Not sure if I believe in ghosts but I do like a good ghost story.

that says the figure of a 'black monk' had been seen here... sometimes accompanied by a second brother!?😯🤨🙏 They are specifically said to have been seen on the path 'at the rear of the ruins'... which seems a rather apt description for the track way where @GhostcallersUK had

Somewhat puzzlingly, on our last visit to Much Wenlock Priory, my good friend @GhostcallersUK said that he could see the figures of '2 Monks' - standing on the path to the left of this image - as we entered the site...?
Following the visit, I had dug up an old newspaper article

Today 26th June marks Rat Catcher’s Day commemorating the Brothers Grimm’s cautionary tale of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. The story cites June 26 1284 as the day the Pied Piper led the children out of the town, in Browning’s poem it is July 22 1376.

The Victorians were fascinated by the paranormal.
Seances, spirit photography and ghost stories became hugely popular during the late 19th century.
Many of the supernatural beliefs we still discuss today gained momentum during that period.

🌿✨Celebrating #InternationalFairyDay! 🧚♀️💜🌿
Midsummer may have passed, but the fairy dust lingers.
In Welsh folklore, Pembroke Corgis were said to be the battle mounts of the Fae. Their little "fairy saddles" are the markings left by riders galloping into moonlit mythic wars. 🐾⚔️
#WyrdWednesday 🐶🧚♂️
Ancient legends tell that these little dogs served as mounts for the fae, pulling their carts and bravely riding into epic battles.
This unique bond highlights the Corgis' intelligence and agility, once revered as warhorses for the fae before becoming beloved herding dogs.
Their distinctive "saddle" markings symbolize the fairy riders who once galloped into mythical conflicts atop these brave canines. 🌌🧚♀️🐕

I've always joked about writing the book 'Haunted Lavatories' one day... and this 'Ladies' would certainly have a starring role in the volume, that's for certain!!😂👍
