1. Langham Hotel, Central London<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since opening in 1865, this five-star hotel has been a popular place to stay with eminent guests, ranging from Oscar Wilde to Charles de Gaulle and George Orwell. Whilst the number 666 is sinisterly associated with the devil, it\u2019s room 333 (half of 666) that\u2019s thought to be the most haunted room in this hotel, believed to house the ghost of a murderer and a German Prince who threw himself out of the window.<\/p>\n

2. Skirrid Mountain Inn, Abergavenny, Wales<\/strong><\/p>\n

This Welsh Inn has a history of grave matters, as a former courtroom where many were sentenced to death and executed in the pub itself. Today, the Inn revels in this sense of spookiness, inviting guests to take part in a ghost hunt to search for angered spirits.<\/p>\n

3. Dalhousie Castle Hotel & Spa, Bonnyrigg, Edinburgh<\/strong><\/p>\n

This luxury castle hotel is deemed to be one of the most haunted sites in all of Scotland. Its claim to this derives from it being the home to Lady Catherine, known as \u2018The Grey Lady\u2019, who died of a broken heart at 16 years old in the 17th century \u2013 and is said to be walking the grounds to this day.<\/p>\n

4. The Ancient Ram Inn, Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sadly, you can\u2019t stay the night at The Ancient Ram Inn anymore, but it still offers ghost hunts of its self-proclaimed \u201cmost haunted building in England\u201d. Built in 1145, visitors claim to have seen all manner of spooky findings, most notable of all being past evidence of satanic rituals and skeletal remains.<\/p>\n
