Halloween Countdown - it's today! 🎃🧵

I had to go big for Halloween so today's stories are all about the ghostly activity at mysterious Stonehenge.

A levitation, a phantom plane, white ladies, strange electrical energy, vanishing campers and even The Great Hurricane of 1987 await you...

My friends and I all unanimously voted that if we could we’d go back to life before the internet. Would you?!

Oh, where are you? For some reason I thought you were in the UK! Not sure where that thought cane from though!

Oh, I sure do! 😆

Remember the days where, if you needed some information, you went to the library! 📚

😂

I was just about to hop on here to say that! Time to get the guillotine of the French America.

Good news is, you still can! 👍🏻🎃👻

I agree! You can go and have a picnic ‘in the stones’ or give them a hug. I guess if it was as popular as Stonehenge the stones would wear away with all the hugging, so I’m glad it’s not been discovered in the same way. Long live access to the stones! 😁

😂 That just earnt you a follow! Happy Day!

That’s really weird… real people are far more scary than ghosts. 😳🤪

It’s my favourite! It’s actually two stone circles inside one huge one, with half a village in the henge too. It’s a very magical place. 🧚🏻‍♂️🌝

On arriving at her destination, she discovered that there hadn't been a fair of this kind in Avebury for over fifty years. What exactly had Miss Olivier seen? She wasn’t the first to have this kind of ‘time slip’ experience of a fair at Avebury. 👻

Halloween Countdown - Day 2 🎃👻🧵

Avebury

Early in the 20th C, Miss Olivier was driving through the stone circle of Avebury when she became aware of a fair being held amongst the stones. She could hear the sounds and see lights but she didn’t investigate.

I’m on it!!! 👻

The locals used to whisper in corners, ‘Don’t get too loud Burt. Old Blue Boots will be after you.’ 🥾 She ruled!

It’s so depressing that most of the powers that be don’t seem to care as long as they are making money and gaining power. They don’t give a damn that their children and grandchildren will suffer on a dying planet because of the constant need to get more money.

YouTube video by Ashley Goldson Documentry The Old Bell Hotel

There’s a video! She looks like she’s waving or cleaning the window but she gives me Elizabethan vibes. Here’s the little mini-documentary with me in it! It’s at 0.28!
That being said when I zoomed in properly it looks like a person. 👻

And could not be a person at all! 👻🙃

Did I tell you I’ve been working with some Wilts College media students on their folklore project?
One group chose The Old Bell, Malmesbury and I noticed something in a window.
Chances are, it’s a living human. Or is it? It’s a strange photo of a very haunted place... if you use your imagination! 👻

Two of those most disgusting men on the planet - likes peas in a poisonous, misogynistic pod. 🤢

Halloween Countdown - Day 3 🎃

The Freke Arms, Swanborough

This 200 yr old pub is haunted by an old landlady. Unexplained footsteps, sudden cold spots, soft murmured voices and sounds from empty rooms are down to her. She appears at the bar with neat, blue ankle boots. Sometimes it’s just boots! 🥾

Savage. But really good.
