👻🎃 THE HAUNTING OF THE WHITE LION, WHITTINGTON 🎃👻
🍺 They say every old pub has a story to tell… but what if the walls of The White Lion could talk?
There have been some rather unsettling experiences reported within the pub, and not all of them are so easily explained…
👤 Shadows in the Walkways
Some have spoken of seeing dark shadows moving along the walkways, out of the corner of their eye. A quick glance is all it takes… because when they look again, there’s nobody there. Just an empty walkway.
💧 The Sound of Water
Others have heard the unmistakable sound of water droplets falling somewhere nearby. Drip… drip… drip… Yet when they investigate, there’s no obvious source. The sound seems to appear from nowhere, then disappears just as mysteriously.
🚪 Doors That Close Themselves
Perhaps even more unsettling are the reports of doors shutting behind people when nobody else is around. Was it a draught? Or was someone — or something — following a little too closely?
😰 The Breathing
But perhaps the creepiest experience of all is the feeling that you’re not alone. Imagine standing quietly in an empty room when you suddenly hear breathing right over your shoulder.
You turn around.
Nobody there.
🧄🍞 THE CASE OF THE FLYING GARLIC BREAD!
And if you thought that was strange enough… there’s one more story from behind the scenes in the kitchen.
One of our chefs was going about his business when, completely out of nowhere, a piece of garlic bread came flying towards him!
He turned around, expecting to find a mischievous member of staff having a laugh…
But there was nobody there. 😳
So… what exactly is going on at The White Lion?
Could it be the building settling, a trick of the imagination… or is there something lingering within these old walls that has never quite left?
👻 Have you ever experienced anything strange at The White Lion?
We’d love to hear your stories… if you’re brave enough to share them! 👀
🎃 Come and join us this Halloween… if you dare! 🍺
