Nondescript Shape

Location: Accrington - 38 Pendle Street

There was also a ghost mentioned in the local paper in a local house but at the time I think most discounted that as it was run then as a hotel and nothing had been ‘Heard’ about any haunting before that.

Screaming Girl

Location: Accrington - Black Abbey Road
Type: Haunting Manifestation
Date / Time: Unknown
Further Comments: This ghostly figure drifts quietly down the road, screaming only if approached. She was burnt to death after having a love affair with one of the monks.



Out Dated Machinery

Location: Accrington - Broad Oak Printing Works

Date / Time: 1970s
Further Comments: After a night watchman reported an icy entity which took hold of his arm, a tape recorder was left in the same room to see what it would pick up. On playback, the tape was filled with the sounds of working print equipment, though nothing had been activated whilst the recording was in action.
