Episode Details

A 1918 newspaper clipping preserves an older tale of Knighton Gorges, where a vanished house seemed to return in ghostly light, music, voices, dogs, and a spectral Christmas gathering.

On the Isle of Wight, only fragments remain of the old estate, but the stories continue: rattling chains, phantom revels, strange lights, and a house said to appear again when the conditions are right.
