With the clocks having changed and Halloween approaching, a selection of 12 ghostly Halloween photographs from Oxfordshire has been compiled from years of material in the Oxford Mail archive.
Oxford’s long history has provided many subjects for reports of paranormal activity, including haunted pubs, monuments and local stories from across the county.
A book written by Donald Stuart examines haunted pubs throughout England and identifies 35 in Oxfordshire in 2011.
Its subjects include The Bear Hotel in Woodstock, the haunted Oxfordshire Museum, historic pubs such as The Kings Arms in Oxford and The Trout in Wolvercote.
The material also contains a photograph of a man who said he saw a ghost with his own eyes at the haunted White Hart pub in Fyfield.
The incident was recorded in the 1960s.
Together, these images and accounts document 12 haunted Halloween pictures from Oxfordshire collected over the years in the Oxford Mail archive.
