Another ghostly dog roams the ruins of Betchworth Castle near Leatherhead.  The black death dog supposedly prowls the castle ruins at night.

Actually, the dog is not the only revenant at the site in the evenings, as this is when the spirit of Lord Hope walks the grounds.  He is full of remorse after killing his own son in error, believing him to be an escaped convict.

Or you could head over to the outskirts of Guildford for sightings of another tormented soul.  Some believe the historic manor house, Loseley Park, is the haunt of a women in brown who appears in the stairwell.

If she’s not there, stay for a visit the garden and grounds.  You don’t need to book in advance.
