Mysterious Smoky Figure Blorenge

B4246, Blorenge, Gwent Apparition Unknown

Blorenge's B4246 road is known for its winding path through the Welsh countryside, but on one fateful evening it played host to a bizarre and unexplained sighting. A driver and their passenger were travelling along this stretch of road when they spotted a human-sized, white and blue cloud moving along the road. The driver couldn't make out any specific details, but the passenger was able to discern a human-like figure within the cloud. It was 22:30 on 9 April 2016 when this strange encounter took place, leaving both witnesses with more questions than answers.

Digging deeper into the circumstances surrounding this sighting, it's clear that the witnesses were shaken but not harmed. The fact that two people observed this phenomenon lends credibility to the account, and their descriptions, although vague, suggest that something unusual was indeed present. While there's limited historical context available for this specific location, the presence of a mysterious figure or entity raises questions about possible connections to the area's past or even residual energy. Further investigation is needed to understand the cause and nature of this smoky human cloud.

Kidwelly Thudding House Ghost

House next to gas works, Kidwelly

In the small Welsh town of Kidwelly, a house stands with a reputation for unexplained thudding and rapping sounds. Built in the early 20th century, the house was once home to a family who were soon to discover they weren't alone. Shortly after moving in, they began to hear strange noises that couldn't be explained. The sounds were loud enough to be heard by multiple people and were often rhythmic, like a code. Spiritualists took an interest in the house and claimed to have developed a way to communicate with the entity responsible for the thudding.

The Vanishing Cottage of Blorenge

Blorenge Mountain, Blaenavon

Blorenge Mountain, a rugged and windswept peak in the Welsh countryside, is home to a most peculiar and intriguing haunting. In the early 1970s, a young girl, wandering ahead of her family, stumbled upon a quaint stone cottage nestled among the hills. Outside, an elderly man with a wild shock of white hair and a long, flowing moustache was busily chopping firewood. The girl, feeling no sense of unease, approached the old man and exchanged a few words with him. However, something soon made her feel decidedly uncomfortable, and she quickly ran back to rejoin her family.

A misty, humanoid shape without features appeared, drifting downhill, its ethereal form seeming to hover just above the ground.

Hanbury Family Ghost

Coldbrook House, Abergavenny

Coldbrook House in Abergavenny was once the site of a rather unusual haunting. The state bedroom was said to be home to an entity that could only be perceived by members of the Hanbury family. This ghostly presence was a family affair, literally, as it seemed to be exclusive to them. The house also had a notorious 'bloodstained room', which was said to be the scene of a dramatic event. The story goes that the bloodstain came from either a duelling gambler or a maid who rejected the advances of a butler. Whatever the truth may be, Coldbrook House was certainly a place of dark legend.
