St John's public library, SE3

St John's Public Library in Blackheath seems like an unlikely place for a ghostly encounter, but that's exactly where Elsie Marshall has been spotted. This former missionary, who met her untimely demise in China, appears to have returned to her former home, gently pushing past people if they stand in the way of her invisible entity. Her presence is a gentle one, with no reports of malevolence or fear, just a quiet determination to move through the space.

Royal Hotel, Comrie

In the heart of Comrie, the Royal Hotel stands tall, its corridors whispering secrets of a bygone era. They say a phantom woman, dressed in a flowing green gown, wanders these very halls, searching for her lost love who perished in a snowstorm. Her presence is a poignant reminder of a love torn apart by fate, and her ethereal form continues to captivate those who dare to venture into the hotel's depths. As the snow falls gently outside, the Green Lady's mournful sighs seem to echo through the empty corridors, beckoning brave souls to uncover the truth behind her haunting.

Baker's Street to St John's Wood, W1

Deep beneath the bustling streets of London, on a stretch of track that runs from Baker Street to St John's Wood, a strange phenomenon has been reported by underground track walkers. Bill, one such worker, was taking a break while patrolling the line when he heard disembodied footprints crunching through the ballast. The footsteps approached, went straight past him, and then stopped just ten metres away. It was as if someone had walked by, but there was no one there.

Piccadilly Circus Underground Station, W1J

Deep in the heart of London's bustling Piccadilly Circus Underground Station, a strange and intriguing phenomenon has been reported. In the early 1970s, musician Gary Numan and a friend were making their way through the station when they spotted a man dressed in 1940s-style clothing. Assuming he was heading for an exit, they followed him closely, but as they turned a corner, they found themselves in a dead end. There was no possible route for the man to have taken, and it was as if he had vanished into thin air.

Her Majesty's Theatre, SW1

Her Majesty's Theatre in London's West End is home to a rather chilly ghostly presence. Sir Herbert Beerbohm-Tree, a renowned actor and theatre manager, funded the theatre's rebuild in 1899 and had a favourite seat in the top box to the right. People sitting in this very spot have reported feeling cold spots and having the door open on its own accord. It's as if Sir Herbert still likes to make his presence known, even if it's just a subtle chill in the air or a faint whisper of the door creaking open.

Albemarle Street, W1

Albemarle Street in London's West End has witnessed its fair share of comings and goings over the years but one particular encounter has left a lasting impression on those who experienced it. In the 1960s two friends were making their way back from a night out when they spotted their old friend George walking towards them. At first they thought George was on leave from the army but as he drew closer they noticed something was off - his face was grey and dead. The friends stopped and let George continue walking, not knowing what to make of the situation. It wasn't until weeks later that they found out George had died fighting in New Zealand.
