The Smugglers Den Club

The club’s website mentions that they have regular visits from their ghostly friends, including a staff member feeling a gentle touch on the shoulders when she is preparing a buffet. It is said that Mary, the name given to the ghost, also gives “warm hearted cheeky touches now and then.” There are other ghostly occurrences here too; a phantom lady glides through the saloon and exits where an external door used to exist at the side of the fireplace. The wine glasses in the bar often rattle and bottles have been launched from the optics. The other ghost likes to leave an unusual gift behind; according to the pub’s website, “We can be totally alone, cleaning, when a glove will appear on a surface we have just cleared. We named him Godfrey the Glove Ghost!” One of these (obviously non-female) ghosts may be that of a young boy who died when he was trapped in an underground tunnel that, as per local legend, ws used in smuggling operations here.
