Hidden in the Warwickshire countryside lies the ancient village of Wootton Wawen — a place where history stretches back more than a thousand years… and where the past may not be entirely at rest.

In this episode of Ghost Tales by the Fireside, we explore the fascinating history and paranormal legends surrounding this historic village. From its Saxon church and medieval priory to the mysterious hauntings of Wootton Hall, Wootton Wawen has gathered centuries of strange stories.

Visitors and residents alike have reported unexplained events including:

• Phantom perfume drifting through empty rooms

• Sightings of a mysterious Grey Lady

• Strange rappings and unexplained disturbances

• Shadowy figures said to resemble wandering monks

We’ll also uncover a remarkable 1854 spirit rapping case reported in the Birmingham Journal, when villagers gathered to witness mysterious knocking sounds that baffled witnesses and investigators alike.

Is it folklore… or could something still linger in this ancient landscape?

Ghost Tales by the Fireside explores the history, folklore and ghost stories of Britain’s most haunted places.
