Green Park underground station, SW1

Green Park underground station, a bustling hub of the London transport network, has its fair share of paranormal activity. One particular incident that has been documented took place in the late 1970s and involved a young track engineer who was waiting for the traction current to be cut off. As he sat there, he suddenly felt a slap on the face and turned to see a grey figure vanishing along the platform. What's interesting is that another man present at the scene saw nothing out of the ordinary, except for the engineer flinching and swearing, which adds to the mystique of this unexplained event.

St Mary's Church, NW10

St Mary's Church in Neasden is home to a rather unusual ghostly resident, known affectionately as the Fat Monk. This jovial looking fellow has been spotted standing on the site of an old well in the garden of the vicarage, which is a nice spot to imagine a monk might have popped up. He sometimes makes an appearance in the church itself, which is also said to be haunted by a mischievous priest who likes to play with the doors.

Above Wembley Stadium, NW2

Wembley Stadium, a iconic London landmark, has witnessed its fair share of unusual events over the years. One such incident that has left many scratching their heads is the sighting of a flying banana-shaped object in the sky above the stadium. On March 15 and 17, 1985, multiple witnesses reported seeing a bright, multi-coloured object that resembled a banana hovering above the stadium. The object's unusual shape and vibrant colours left onlookers bewildered.

Shoe shop, NW6

On Dyne Road in London's NW6, a most peculiar and intriguing haunting took place at a shoe shop back in the late 1940s. It started with a worker complaining to his manager about the strange occurrences, only to have a chisel embed itself in the wall right before their eyes. This was just the beginning of a series of bizarre events that would leave the staff baffled. Shoes would turn up outside the shop or be found dyed the wrong colour, candles would move and light themselves, and locked doors would swing open. It was clear that something was amiss.

Unnamed Antique Shop, NW5

On Grafton Road in London's NW5 area, a rather unusual ghostly apparition has been spotted. This antique shop, now long gone, was once home to a sad, bearded figure clad only in old-fashioned underwear. His presence was first noted back in 1980, shortly after the shop sold a recently acquired suit of armour. It's thought that this armour might have been the trigger for his haunting, as he was believed to be a knight, quite upset that his protective garb had been sent overseas.

Golders Lodge, NW11

Golders Lodge once stood on Golders Green Road, a site now vacant but steeped in a rather unsettling history. The story begins with a rather unusual bequest, made around 1810, where the testator's body was required to 'remain above ground' in order for the lodge to be inherited. It is said that the new tenant, eager to occupy the property, kept the former owner's body hidden away in the loft for a considerable period. This macabre arrangement was allegedly maintained until the lodge was eventually demolished. Since then, reports have surfaced of a ghostly presence haunting the area, believed to be the spirit of the first occupier.
