Who doesn’t want to take part in a Paranormal investigation at a CASTLE?

Tamworth Castle is a grade 1 listed building, a Norman castle overlooking the mouth of the River Antker in the town of Tamworth, Staffordshire.

The Ghosts of Tamworth Castle.

Many stories have been told over the years. One is said to be the most famous: the “Green Lady”. We believe she is the ghost of Lady Elizabeth Drury, who was imprisoned in the castle for her role in the Babington plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I. People still see her walking through the rooms today.

The castle walls hold a wealth of stories and legends, from the tales of expelled nuns to royal visits.

Key periods range from its Saxon origins through the medieval, Tudor, Stuart, and Georgian eras, and into the Victorian era. The castle displays it all.

With many rooms, chambers and dark corridors, not to mention the dungeons and the haunted bedroom.

Come and be a part of discovering the families who once considered the castle their home.

What To Expect

Home to many a notable family. In the 16th century, the castle was partially destroyed during the English Civil War and was rebuilt in the Victorian era.

The Ghosts of Tamworth Castle
Many stories have been told over the years. A figure has been seen from the courtyard, standing in the Ferrers’ Room window, when no one was in the castle.

One is said to be the most famous of them all: the “Green Lady”. We believe it to be the ghost of Lady Elizabeth Drury, who was imprisoned in the castle for her part in the Babington plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I. She is still seen walking around the rooms to this day.

A member of staff felt she was struck in the face and momentarily blinded. She claimed it felt like sand had been thrown into her eyes. When she cleared her eyes, she saw a blue mist swirl around the room and then disappear out the window. The mist was at least six feet high.

Another ghost said to haunt the castle is a man in black, believed to be the ghost of a soldier killed during the English Civil War, but many who have seen him say he appears friendly. Well, we need to find out for ourselves.

The most talked-about ghost is that of the ‘Black Lady’ who haunts the Lady’s Chamber; it is believed to be that of a 9th-century nun called Editha who was expelled from Polesworth Abbey by the first Baron Marmion.

With many ghost stories, this is the ideal location for a paranormal investigation.
