As residents of Lancashire, we should perhaps be alarmed that so many of our famous halls are described as ‘one of the most haunted houses in England’ but in reality, this lends an air of excitement.

We were trying to get the owner's dog to follow us down the hall but it would not move away from the bathroom door and seemed genuinely petrified.

I went there when I was 11 and i am 13 now, when I went i was scared stiff so i never went in, I got frightned that a ghost would be watching me or touch me! So I stayed in my dads car in the car park thing whilst my dad was looking inside the windows, so I decided to take a picture of the house to see if anything would come up and when I looked (this is no joke)there was a figure floating in the air and i could tell it was a man as it had a brown beard and moustache he looked a bit like jesus! and he had a long powder blue dress/nighty on!
