The Glasgow Necropolis... In the 1950s, children claimed a vampire with iron teeth stalked the nearby Southern Necropolis. The children said the vampire had killed and eaten two boys, and it was said to come out at night, prowling among the graves. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... The Necropolis has earned a reputation as one of Glasgow’s most haunted spots. Tales tell of a spectral woman in white drifting between headstones, rarely seen, but never forgotten to those that do. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... Visitors often report strange sensations among the tombs: cold spots, hushed whispers, and a faint scent of flowers where none are seen. Some say the souls of long-forgotten Victorians still wander the hillside at dusk. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... Funeral processions once crossed a sandstone bridge over the Molendinar Burn, fittingly known as the Bridge of Sighs - symbolizing the passage from life to death as mourners entered the city of graves. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... Scotland’s finest Victorian architects, including Alexander 'Greek' Thomson and J.T. Rochead, left their mark here. Their elaborate mausoleums and obelisks make the Necropolis as much an open-air museum as a burial ground. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... Tucked away near the lower slopes lies the old Jewish enclosure, holding just a few dozen graves. It’s one of Scotland’s earliest Jewish burial grounds and a poignant reminder of the city’s diverse 19th-century population. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... Around 50,000 people have been buried in the Necropolis since its creation, yet only a fraction - roughly 3,500 monuments, still stand above ground. Beneath the grass and paths lies layer upon layer of unmarked history. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

The Glasgow Necropolis... The site was once known as Fir Park, a wooded estate belonging to the Merchants’ House of Glasgow. In the 1830s, it was transformed from a tree-covered hill into the ornate resting ground that overlooks Glasgow today. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

Good Morning Nottinghamshire... I'd say it's time for a new adventure, but that's already happened! I went on tour, and I'm hoping to bring you a location from north of the border very soon! 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire


St Mary's Church Lowdham... The building itself sits in a shallow hollow, west of the main village street, near Cocker Beck, which occasionally floods. This is one reason why the churchyard is slightly raised. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

St Mary's Church Lowdham... Some older villagers reportedly told stories of church bells heard ringing faintly on stormy nights. With no one inside the church when heard, could it have been the wind through the louvres, or something else? 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

St Mary's Church Lowdham... Renowned Gothic Revival architect Sir George Gilbert Scott, restored the church in the mid-1800s. His work was typical of mid-Victorian ecclesiastical taste, seeking to 'purify' medieval churches of Georgian alterations. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire

St Mary's Church Lowdham... The church's octagonal font, carved in stone and dating from 1290, remains in use. For centuries it would have been used for baptisms, making it one of the oldest liturgical fixtures still serving its original purpose. 📸👻 #HauntedNottinghamshire
