  • Haunted

    The ghosts of past lives
    Wander the formal gardens,
    Feeding off your fear.

    The stone steps leading up to the back of Wollaton Hall in Nottingham, from the Camelia House and formal gardens. It is known as the most haunted building in the county, and regular ghost hunts are organised for those prepared to be scared witless in the dark.

    Shall we play a game?
    Please, not hide and seek again.
    You always find me.

    Hiding in the long grass presents a problem for some. This deer is part of a herd in the local Stately home grounds – Wollaton Park. The hall is known for being Wayne Manor in one of the Batman films. The walls around the park are very old and thick, and when the film crew left they managed to knock down a great big chunk of it with one of the trucks. I would like to say it was repaired symapthetically with the old bricks, but that would not be the truth. There is a now a gleaming section of new orange brickwork. Why?
