Two Norfolk spots have been named among the UK's most haunted.
The Adam and Eve pub in Norwich and Castle Rising near King's Lynn were included in The Telegraph's ranking of the 50 most haunted locations.
The Adam and Eve is the oldest pub in Norwich and is at least 750 years old.
It is reportedly haunted by the ghost of Lord Edmund Sheffield, an English nobleman who led the King's forces during the Kett's Rebellion of 1549.
Lord Sheffield was stabbed and carried to the inn - and many believe he never truly left.

His ghost has been reported to roam the modern pub, tapping people on the shoulder and running its fingers through their hair.
The article also noted the spooky sightings at Castle Rising, a 900-year-old castle near King's Lynn.
Edward II's wife, Isabella the Fair, is one of its most famous occupants.
Edward II was reportedly more interested in spending time with his male companions and Isabella's affection for him deteriorated over time.
Eventually, Isabella and her lover, Roger Mortimer, overthrew him and put her son Edward III on the throne.
The new King was worried about Isabella and Mortimer's growing influence and hanged Mortimer.
He locked his mother away in Castle Rising and locals claim they can hear her screams and manic laughter emerging from its walls to this day.
Some other local locations included were the Holy Trinity church in Blythburgh and Moyse’s Hall in Bury St Edmunds.
