Knottingley Town Hall has long been rumoured to be home to ghostly activity, with reports of ghostly female figures in wartime clothing and a man in a flat cap, as well as strange lights, known as orbs, and mysterious noises.

The building is also believed to have been built on the site of a former monastery, and is rumoured to be haunted by the spirit of a young boy who fell to his death down a staircase many years ago.

These claims and more will be investigated as part of a ghost night to be held at the town hall next month.

Led by Stuart and Rosey Dawson, the night will involve seances, Ouija board and table tipping experiments, as well as using the latest electrical ghost hunting equipment to delve into the building's past.

In a statement, the Dawsons, of Simply Ghost Nights, said: "Do you believe in Ghosts? Exactly what is Paranormal Activity? Are you brave enough to find out?

"There’s little doubt that public interest in all things spooky is at an all time high; never since Victorian times have so many people been involved in investigating the dark side.
