Harbour area, Penzance

Penzance Harbour is a place of eerie legend, where the salty sea air and rugged coastline seem to whisper secrets to those who dare to listen. It's here that locals claim to have spotted the Black Dog, a shroud of darkness that takes the form of a canine companion. They say this ghostly hound appears only to those who are about to meet their maker, a harbinger of doom that strikes fear into the hearts of all who catch a glimpse of it.

Castle Acton, Penzance

Castle Acton in Penzance is home to a rather unusual ghostly occurrence. A priest who spent the night in the former maid's room reported being woken up multiple times by the sound of a buzzing bell. It turned out that the castle's former mistress had installed an electric buzzer system to communicate with her maid, which was removed after her passing. The priest had no idea about the history of the buzzer, and it remains unclear what sparked the strange nocturnal disturbances.

Kenegie House, Penzance

Kenegie House in Penzance is said to be haunted by the ghostly remnants of its former servants. The kitchen is apparently where the Victorian maids like to have a good old time, their disembodied voices and laughter still echoing through the rooms. It's a lively and playful presence, one that brings a smile to the faces of those who experience it. Then there's the woman in black, a more subdued presence who drifts along the corridors, possibly a former housekeeper who took her duties very seriously.

Former retirement home along Morrab Road, Penzance

The former retirement home along Morrab Road in Penzance is said to be haunted by the ghostly figure of a shadowy man. This building has a rich history, having once served as a doctor's surgery, and it's believed that the phantom is that of the General Practitioner who once worked here. The apparition is thought to be a benign presence, with no reports of malicious activity. It's likely that the doctor's dedication to his patients has led to his spirit lingering in the building, perhaps still keeping a watchful eye on the area.

30 miles NNW of islands, Isles of Scilly

On a sunny summer day in 1976, Patrick Dolan was sailing his sloop towards Kinsale in Co Cork, Ireland, when he spotted something extraordinary in the waters of the Atlantic. About 30 miles northwest of the Isles of Scilly, he came face to face with a mysterious sea creature. The beast was described as being worm-like, stretching an incredible twelve metres in length, with a two metre long neck protruding above the water's surface. For twenty minutes, Dolan watched in awe as the creature glided through the waves, giving him a rare glimpse into the unknown depths of our oceans.

The Dolphin Tavern, Penzance

The Dolphin Tavern in Penzance is home to a trio of ghostly residents. Visitors have reported seeing 'George', a man in a tricorn hat and laced ruffles, wandering the upstairs corridors at night. He's often seen near the bar area. One theory suggests that George might be Judge Jeffries or a sea captain who met his end in the harbour. Another woman in Victorian clothing has been spotted strolling through the pool room, while a young man with fair hair is known to wake up both landlords and guests by sitting or standing at the foot of their beds. There have also been reports of strange whispers, footsteps, and an unexplained sense of being touched on the shoulder.
