UK Ghost Hunts With Haunting Nights
Haunting Nights Ghost Hunts Unlocking the darker side of Cornwalls history
With so many ghost hunters joining us in Cornwall at The Wellington Hotel in Boscastle the demand for Haunting Nights ghost hunts is taking us to the harrowing Bodmin Jail
Little introduction is required to this place of incarceration, torture and execution, Bodmin Jail has a sinister reputation across the UK
What remains today is a chilling reminder of Georgian and Victorian crime, punishment and execution
Built in the mid 1700s and extended several times due to overcrowding a reported 55 prisoners hanged at the jail from 1785 to early 1900. The last hanging was William Hampton.
Bodmin Jail has many ghosts who remain still protesting their innocence, with deathly screams and pleading voices still resonating around the old cells
Dark menacing shadows and the sound of rattling keys thought to be the jailer still today walking the landings of the old jail
In the naval wing speaking French has given some ingelligent responses on past ghost hunts here, with stones being thrown from the upper cells
Here are just a few of the spirits who are know to remain incarcerated within the walls of Bodmin Jail
Matthew Weeks (executed in 1844 for murdering his lover Charlotte Dymond)
Selina Wadge. She was hanged for the murder of her younger disabled son in 1887.

Anne Jefferies who roams around the jail. Anne was left to starve to death as she did not admit to being a witch.
