Loseley Park

A spectral woman wearing dark brown clothes and having "staring black eyes" has been seen in the House, in or near the staircase. Some reports say that she is known as "The Nice Lady" or "The Pleasant Lady" and is a Victorian housekeeper, and that she has a smile on her face. She was first seen in the 1970s and is said to wear smart brown clothing from the late Victorian era. A "Grey Lady" has also been reported. She is said to have killed her stepson so that her own offspring would inherit the building; another version is that it was her own daughter whom she drowned. Her husband's reaction to her crimes was to lock her in a room for the remainder of her life. She is sometimes called "The Nasty (or Unpleasant) Lady" and is said to stomp around, scowling and wearing a dark grey dress - she is said to appear in one of the bedrooms. Despite the confusing genders involved, the young victim is also said to infest the building or in the garden, where the moat was once located. This may be the little girl who was seen in the playroom with the owner's living children. Other phenomena include a man in the Long Gallery and screams of despair coming from a room - the story is that the husband of the murderess locked his wife up here when he discovered her deed. Another possible spectre may be an old lady, seen at a distance leading a donkey. She was seen to pass behind a clump of trees but did not emerge from the other side.
