Wyken Croft, Coventry

Wyken Croft in Coventry is a place where the ordinary and the unexplained collide. It was here in the summer of 1972 that a remarkable UFO sighting took place. A witness staying with relatives caught a glimpse of a saucer-shaped object with blue lights hovering in the sky. This wasn't just a fleeting glance; the object lingered for a while before speeding off at an incredible pace. The witness was so taken aback that they rushed downstairs to share the news but found themselves unable to speak. When they finally composed themselves, they realised that a staggering three hours had passed, despite the encounter feeling like mere minutes.

Gosford Books, Coventry

Gosford Books in Coventry has a rather curious reputation. A local ghost walker and storyteller claims that the bookshop is haunted by the spirits of children who like to play tricks by stacking books in the aisles. However, the current owner of the shop has had a very different experience during his 36 years of running the business. He says he has not encountered anything out of the ordinary, which has led some to wonder if the haunting is a thing of the past or perhaps just a myth.

Days Hotel, Coventry

The Days Hotel in Coventry is said to be haunted by five phantoms. While four of these apparitions are rarely seen, the fifth is that of a maid who still roams the upper floors. This poor woman was allegedly mistreated by the manager and harbours a strong dislike for men - so much so that she tends to conceal their belongings and has been blamed for minor mishaps they may have experienced.

Terry Road, Coventry

Terry Road in Coventry is a seemingly ordinary street, but it's been the site of a bizarre and unsettling paranormal encounter. In April 1994, a person walking their neighbour's dogs was suddenly and inexplicably confronted with a 'very transparent ripple' that had a profound effect on them. The witness was overcome with dread and screamed out loud, so shaken that they wouldn't sleep properly for a week afterwards. The ripple seemed to have come out of nowhere, leaving the witness to wonder what exactly they had experienced.

Hairdressing Salon, Coventry

In a quiet Coventry hairdressing salon, a visitor experienced a sudden and unexplained occurrence while using the upstairs bathroom. The door wouldn't close properly, so it was left slightly ajar. Suddenly, there were three loud knocks and the door was pushed open with force. However, there was no one in sight, and an unsettling silence followed. The area was covered in creaky floorboards, which made the incident even more bizarre.
