The Old Garrison
Campfield Road, Shoeburyness, Southend-on-Sea, Essex SS3 9BX
01702 291970
Children have been heard laughing and playing here, and a workman who glimpsed children in Victorian clothing in the bar left his job and refused to return when they vanished. People have also seen a man in a white coat; this man may be a doctor - the pub used to be a hospital for soldiers and families attached to the Garrison nearby. Also, a strange, unexplained odour has been detected in the cellar.
Update 16/2/22: The pub responded to my query about any recent happenings: "over the last 3 and a bit years since I've been here there has been strange things here glasses falling of shelves when they were not even close to the edge and a few other odd things I can't explain." When I queried further about whether any visible apparitions, as mentioned above, had been seen, I was told that he had "seen orbs on the cameras and more of a shadow out of the corner of my eye." Reputable ghost researchers attribute "orbs" to dust or small particulate matter close to the camera.
