Hellfire Caves Ghosts
The most seen ghost at Hellfire Caves is Sukie, a local girl who was murdered here. A chambermaid at the local George and Dragon, she longed to marry into the gentry and spurned the advances of the local boys, eventually accepting a proposal from a wealthy local man. One night, she received a note asking her to meet him in the caves so that they could elope. Arriving in her wedding dress, she discovered that the local boys had sent the note and were waiting for her. A fight erupted, stones were thrown and she died in the passages fro a blow to the head.
Sukie's ghost is most often seen in the banqueting hall numerous sightings of a young lady dressed in a white Victorian wedding dress. Visitors have also reported hearing screams and crying coming from the banqueting hall.
Often there's a variation in temperature between the different caves indicating that there might be some sort of paranormal activity. "Lights and orbs have also been sighted an awful lot" according to Julienne Barlow, the Assistant Manager of Hellfire Caves, "and one theory is that they could be the spirits of children. A lot of people have taken pictures of a child and in the background there's an orb behind them. The best place to photograph these orbs is the entrance tunnel.
The ghost of an elderly man has also been seen in the cave system, a witness saw the apparition walk through a wall and vanish. Many visitors report strange shapes floating towards them and capturing orbs on their cameras. Recently TV's Most Haunted and Ghost Hunters paranormal teams visited the caves and found plenty of compelling evidence that the caves are indeed haunted.
