Why is Prestbury, Gloucestershire said to be haunted?
Tucked at the foot of the Cotswolds outside Cheltenham, the small parish of Prestbury has earned a reputation as one of England's most haunted villages, with local ghost-walk guides cataloguing around fifteen distinct apparitions along its lanes. The best known is the Black Abbot, a hooded monastic figure blamed on the village's monastic past, said to drift silently along Mill Street and near the church of St Mary the Virgin. Other reported phenomena include a headless horseman on the road to Southam and a Roman soldier glimpsed near the old priory site. Prestbury's ghost walks, running for decades, remain a popular local tradition drawing visitors keen to spend an evening in what many townsfolk half-jokingly call the most haunted village in the Cotswolds.
