Church, Wendover

Wendover's St Mary's Church seems an ordinary place of worship, but locals know its construction was anything but. Legend has it that the church's builders had other plans for its location, but the area's fairy population had different ideas. They allegedly moved the building materials to the site where the church now stands, foiling the original plan. It's a curious tale that has been passed down through the years, leaving many to wonder about the mischievous forces that might have been at work.

RAF Halton housing estate, Wendover

RAF Halton, a former Royal Air Force base in Wendover, Buckinghamshire, is home to a rather unusual paranormal sighting - the Chiltern Puma. In May 1983, four women walking through the estate came face to face with a large, unidentifiable cat-like creature. It passed within three metres of the group, leaving them shaken. Over the next three weeks, the creature was spotted a half dozen times, all within a thirteen mile radius. The encounters were limited to that year, but the legend lived on.

Woodland close to Coombe Hill Monument, Butler's Cross

Deep in the Buckinghamshire woods, near the historic Coombe Hill Monument, a strange sighting has left one dog walker with a lasting impression. On a September evening in 2020, the witness was strolling with their canine companion when they spotted a young woman in Edwardian attire glide effortlessly across a path, vanishing into thin air. This eerie encounter wasn't an isolated incident; a few weeks prior, the same witness had seen a similar woman, this time accompanied by a child, both dressed in white, walking along a parallel path. They too had disappeared before the paths crossed.

Church, Ellesborough

Ellesborough Church stands quietly in the Buckinghamshire countryside, its ancient stones bearing witness to centuries of history.

Road towards Thame, Stone

On a warm summer evening in 1994, a motorist driving along the road towards Thame in Stone, Buckinghamshire, was startled to see a stagecoach making its way in the opposite direction. The eerie sight was made all the more bizarre by the fact that the coach was pulled by horses, but there was no driver on board. The witness, who was travelling in a car, was understandably shocked by what they saw, and it's little wonder that this encounter has become a well-known ghost story in the area.
