Wookey Hole CavesThe Mill, High Street, Wookey Hole, Somerset BA5 1BA 01749 672243 Tapping noises, the sound of someone dragging themselves along and the ghost of Irish potholer have been reported; this latter spectre was met by a TV director who, along with his wife, arranged to be locked in the caves alone so that he could scout for locations for a 1974 Doctor Who story. Other phantoms include former workers at the mill, a young girl in the basement and lower floors, and a mentally ill man in the Magical Mirror Maze. The BBC unveiled an interview with two members of staff on 28/11/2025 where two recent incidents were related: the first occurred in the "Goat Herder," close to entrance on 6/3/24. They were about to undertake some filming (after an initial attempt inexplicably failed) when a black figure, described as being like a mist (but with a delayed aspect, "like a drag," to the motion) walked past one of the staff. Her companion saw the same thing. After that the feeling in the caves was described as unwelcoming. The next incident was about 6 months later when a massive boom or crash was heard a few metres away from the witnesses in chamber 3, but there was nothing to account for this sound.
