The Edenhall Hotel Ghost - December 8, 2008 -

The Edenhall Hotel, nr. Penrith, was bought in 1997 by two business partners who subsequently decided to convert the attics into bedrooms for themselves. When taking afternoon naps between busy shifts at the hotel, one of the partners would frequently feel the sensation of someone walking around the room and would see the door closing, unaware that it had even been opened. He never saw anyone, but had a strong visual image of an elderly lady, who was watchful as opposed to hostile.

A previous worker at the hotel had also seen the ghost, who climbed the stairs in front of her but was nowhere to be seen once she reached the attic. Past workers in the hotel have even spotted a ghost in the bar, not just including a vision of a woman but also a man carrying a pint.

Today the hotel is still in business and is frequented by many looking to catch a glimpse of the famous ghosts!
