The Babysitter Ghost
Cadley Bank, Preston
Cadley Bank in Preston was once home to a rather unusual ghostly encounter. The eldest daughter of a family living there reported seeing the ghost of an old lady holding a candle, standing over her brother's cot. What's remarkable about this sighting is that the family had never met the old woman, as they were renting the house through an agent. The girl later drew the entity, and it was recognised by a neighbour as the owner of the house, who surprisingly was still alive and living in a nursing home in Blackpool.
