The Manor House

The Manor House at the top of the town was once the headquarters of the crisp manufacturer 
'Golden Wonder' and staff there had some strange encounters with the paranormal - doors 
opening by themselves, taps being turned on, bumps and bangs and eerie voices permeated the building.

Most of the activity was experienced by the nightwatchman there. One night, a padlocked storeroom 
door began to shake violently almost like 'an elephant was trying to break through'. Another incident 
involved the apparition of a young girl dressed in a long robe who seemed to be 'rooted to the spot'
before she disappeared. Several employees felt'something' brush past them in the corridors followed
by a door slamming shut, accompanied by the sound of footsteps.

This story is not featured in the dvd documentary but will appear in the forthcoming book.
