Sandbach Drill Hall Ghost
Territorial Army Drill Hall, Sandbach
The Territorial Army Drill Hall in Sandbach, Cheshire, is said to be haunted by the ghost of a sergeant who met his demise within its walls. Strange occurrences started to plague the hall in 1965, with reports of a large door slamming shut on its own and the unmistakable sound of heavy boots echoing down the empty corridors. It was as if the ghostly sergeant was still keeping his troops in line, even in death. Locals were convinced that the unexplained noises were the work of the restless spirit, and it's easy to see why - the image of a stern sergeant major still patrolling the halls is a compelling one.
