Modern Ghost in Tregarth
In the quiet village of Tregarth, a terraced house along Godre'r Parc has been the site of a rather unusual haunting. Back in 1974, a family moved out after their six children were scared by a ghostly figure, standing at an impressive six feet tall and dressed in contemporary clothing. The entity was so convincing that a local priest was called in to perform an exorcism, but unfortunately, it didn't quite have the desired effect. The family was understandably shaken by the experience, and it's not hard to see why they decided to leave.
Interestingly, this wasn't the first time the area had been associated with paranormal activity. An older member of the community claimed to have seen a ghostly figure crossing the field that once stood where the house now resides. This sighting suggests that the entity may have been present in the area for some time, possibly even predating the construction of the house. While we can't say for certain what the connection is between the two, it's clear that Godre'r Parc has a fascinating and somewhat unsettling history.
The house was built on a field that previously stood empty.

Beach, Llanaber
