Often associated with being the most haunted address in Norwich, 19 Magdalen Street was once a pub but is now converted into three separate properties and has over the years been used for Radio Rentals, Oxfam and Stirling Travel. However the property has a gruesome past and research has found that once a young barmaid called Sara was murdered in the upstairs room by the pub’s landlord who tried to use her as a prostitute for customers. When she refused she was dealt a fatal blow.

Many strange activities have been witnessed by staff of the companies such as cups falling off tables by themselves and typewriters working off their own accord. Some people have often felt a drop in temperature between the main and back rooms.

Aberdovey coastline

Aberdovey
Merionethshire

History

Paranormal Activity

The ghostly bells of Aberdovey are still said to be heard over the sound of crashing waves on still summer evenings.

Much of the Welsh coastline has changed dramatically over the years and its hard to imagine that such great cities once stood where now the sea waves crash. There was once however a great rich and fertile plain and prosperous cities with marble wharves and churches who towers resounded with Chimes of bells stretching for miles once stood proudly along the coastline. But now the sea covers these cities but at low tide the sunken tree trunks of old forests can still be seen between Aberdovey and Towyn.

There is a legend of one such great city that was controlled by the Seithenin the Drunkard, one-time Lord High Commissioner to Gwyddno Garanhir, lord of Ceredigion, whose rich dominions were protected from the insatiable sea by strong sea walls and dykes. The preservation of these cities walls were entrusted to Seithenin however he spent his days and nights feasting at his palace by the sea, heedless of the stormy waves and the weakening walls until one night the raging seas washed away the walls and the cities within. The cities and their habitants were lost for ever except for a few men, among them the King’s bard who’s songs tell the story of the fair cities under the sea and of how the bells of Mantua, the greatest city swallowed up by the sea, may now and then heard; distant-sounding chimes, sweet and low, like a call to prayer or the rejoicing from some forgotten victory.
