Couple buy Britain's top haunted hotel that guests need to sign disclaimer to stay in
A Welsh couple have bought one of the most ghoulish hotels in the UK - and it's so spooky, potential guests have to sign a disclaimer to stay the night.
The couple were aware of the 'haunted' Hanbury Arms hotel and pub in Pontypool from their background in paranormal investigating but it didn't really fit their location requirements. But it kept popping up on Rightmove, people kept mentioning it, and in the end they decided to at least go and have a look at the property.
Tracey said: "As soon as we walked in we could feel the energy here, added to by the underground tunnels underneath the pub and the ley lines going through it. It's everything we wanted." The property was due to go under the hammer with Paul Fosh Auctions with a guide of £140,000, but Tracey and Nigel were so keen, they bagged it prior to the auction for an undisclosed amount.
The couple believe that the Hanbury Arms is laden with spirits from children to a hangman, pub customers to a sinister black shadow that lurks in the cellar - the Hanbury couldn't be more perfect as the couple's home and place to establish their expanding haunted museum, with many years worth of haunted items people have donated to them.
''We've had guests wake up in the night and felt and seen a dark oppressive figure, cloaked figure just hovering over them. Some days and some nights you go in the building and it's pretty quiet, but sometimes the place comes alive in different areas. ''But I have got used to the place now and I sleep quite well even though I haven woken up in the middle of the night and seen the outline of a figure in Victorian dress, floating across the room. But we relax in the house fine, but we do get scared sometimes, especially going down to the cellar, but it's our home.
''It makes its way up the cellar staircase, through the bar, up onto the landing. In the paranormal field, one of the theories is that that type of smell would be a negative energy but my theory is that one of the gases that comes out of a dead body is said to smell of rotten garlic, we're thinking it is one of the spirits that was left behind when it was a mortuary, in the body store.
