The Ghost of Anne Boleyn

Every year on the eve of the 19th of May, the air at Blickling Hall, Norwich, goes ice cold. In a centuries-old tale, on this night, the spectre of Anne Boleyn makes contact with our earthly realm. The story goes that as the night falls on the anniversary of the ill-fated Queen's death, you can spot her ghost riding up to Blickling Hall in a coach driven by a headless horseman. Anne is seen, dressed in pure white, slowly being drenched in blood from holding her screaming decapitated head in her lap. As the phantom horses gallop towards the great hall, suddenly, they disappear into thin air. This gruesome story is one of many that have persisted since the execution of the Tudor queen. Her restless spirit has earned the title of the most travelled ghost in England, a country notorious for centuries of horrible history and haunted locations. Blickling Hall, where Anne is believed to of been born, is just one of many significant sites that have become paranormal hot spots- even close to 500 years on.
