If history can learn many things horror of this medieval city, plus the downtown industrial revolution seem to have left no traces are actually no wonder that there are more ma than elsewhere.
At the time of the War of Roses vie for the throne between two clans York and Lancaster in the 15th century, people were beheaded rivals then jack up on sharp stakes of the massive gates of Micklegate Bar.
In York almost no one alley or a bar that does not have a personal ghost. There are half a dozen leading company specializing in tourists to visit the ghost ("Ghost Walk Companies"). The search starts at the Cathedral of York, the church Gothic architectural style that most British people had to take 250 years to built.
When you 're still admire the work of painting on glass beautiful church , the so- called Five Sisters Windows , 5 17 m high window largest in the United Kingdom, the instructor will wear black uniforms whispered after of a Roman army at night often tunics with helmet wandering on the Roman road via Decumana through the old town .
About 50 years ago , Harry Martindales , when there is a new 17 -year-old apprentice , was working in the basement of the home of a large church . He spotted a Roman cavalry brought along a few green uniforms soldiers go through walls toward the church . Friends and relatives who do not believe this mystery story . Conversely they also said that he was mad . But 15 years later , when digging to proceed in the cathedral , it was discovered ruins of an ancient Roman road beneath the cathedral and the house where Harry worked .
But York is not only the Roman ghost. "Mad Alice" at Lund Lane 's Court is famous. 1825 people were hanged in her Fort York (York Castle), saying that she was mad. Pathetic than the "Grey Lady" ghost hidden in the front row of the Royal Opera House but still medieval St. Leonard's Hospital nuns. In the old days it was a priestess buried within the wall for affair with an aristocrat. The story is so creepy but if the woman carrying the gray robes appear, it is good for the upcoming performances.
There is even a ghost queen in King's Manor York University today again. In the old days this was the abbot of the Monastery of St.. Mary of Benedictine. 1541, Queen Catherine Howard, fourth wife of Henry VIII, was dating her lover Thomas Culpeper here. This has shortened her life considerably. Bring a rose in her hand, she often appears in place of the old rose garden of the castle.
Perhaps the story is narrated by a ghost known repent often find on St. William's College behind the Cathedral. He was the younger brother rob and kill a wealthy priest, coldly betrayed accomplice then see who is still standing and hanged like any other.
There are "no first Earl": in 1572 it had beheaded Thomas Percy, Earl of Northumberland, who are loyal to attempt upon the Catholic Queen Elizabeth I was a Protestant. His head is connected to exposure of moss on Micklegate Bar. At some point that the head was brought hastily buried somewhere in the cemetery of Holy Trinity Church, and from that body of Earl's head every night in search of himself.
The women also have " headless woman " : In the 18th century a wealthy woman was robbed murdered . Several days later , when they first discovered she had left her body . And since this is often the first drug does not appear in Bishopthorpe neighborhood , where she was killed . Many years ago people in Bishopthorpe Middlethrope and everyone that I've ever seen this headless ghost .
No place is safe no drugs at all, much less in pubs . In The Old Starre Inn ( No. 40 Stonegate ) to bar visitors can hear the groans of the wounded soldiers . Especially bold ghost in the bar The Cock and Bottle ( 61 Skeldergate ) that we have identified is George Villiers , second Duke of Buckingham . Singles who do not know this shy , " married women who make them scream " , appearing just before the women and sometimes teasing them again
