Lizard Lane area, Shifnal

In the quiet Staffordshire town of Shifnal, specifically around Lizard Lane, a most intriguing haunting has been reported. Following the death of a local farmer named Diggory Mayne, his property became plagued by strong, unexplained winds. These gusts were so powerful they would upset horses and cause doors to slam shut.

However, this marked only the beginning of the strange occurrences, as the ghost of Diggory Mayne soon started appearing in the area, reportedly riding a horse.

Derelict site along Shobnall Street, Burton upon Trent

Shobnall Street in Burton upon Trent was once home to a derelict site that has since been transformed into a housing estate. But back in July 2004, it was a place of eerie occurrences. Two young boys, feeling adventurous, slipped into the abandoned site after the firm that previously occupied it had closed up and moved away. On their first visit, they were met with an unsettling atmosphere - they heard footsteps and couldn't shake off the feeling of being watched. Their second visit was even more intense. In another building on the site, they heard the sounds of machinery and hammering, but there was no one in sight.

The sound was distinct from the nearby town hall clock and the bells of Saint Modwens church, which occasionally echo through the area. What made this sound even more remarkable was that it seemed to match the note depth of a heavy bell from the long-demolished Holy Trinity church, which once stood on the site where the supermarket now stands.
