Shibden Hall Grey Lady
Shibden Hall, Halifax
Shibden Hall, a grand 19th-century country house in Halifax, Yorkshire, is said to be haunted by the ghost of a grey lady. The hall has a dark history, with reports of a woman attempting to take her own life within its walls. According to local legend, Anne Lister, the hall's former owner, slit her wrists in one of the rooms, covering it in blood. Although she may have died in an asylum, her spirit is said to roam the hall after dark, dressed in grey. Some believe the entity might actually be Ann Walker, who allegedly starved herself to death after barricading herself in a room.
