MOST HAUNTED PLACES - Hampton Court Palace, Surrey, England

Hampton Court Palace, Surrey, England

With centuries of bloody history encased within its medieval walls, Hampton Court Palace is rife with tales of supernatural occurrences. King Henry VIII - he of the many wives - can lay a marital claim to at least two of them: before having Catherine Howard executed, he had her placed under house arrest here, and her shrieking spectre has been spied on more than one occasion. The similarly unfortunate Jane Seymour died in childbirth and her heart was buried here on Henry’s orders: her ghost lingers near this bodily remain.
