Bristol Ghost Ape Haunting

Old mansion, Bristol

Hotwells, a once grand mansion in Bristol, Somerset, has a reputation for being one of the most bizarre and intriguing hauntings in English history. The story begins in the 19th century when the owner of the house found it impossible to keep his servants. They would leave in a hurry, claiming to have seen a ghostly ape or a large black hound roaming the premises. The owner himself experienced strange occurrences, hearing loud bangs and crashes, but could never find a source. It's said that the mansion was eventually demolished, but the haunting didn't stop there. The site was converted into three cottages, which were later abandoned and left to ruin. Even today, locals report seeing the ghostly dog in the fields around Hotwells.
