The report
Built in 1862, Borley Rectory became infamous after reports of spectral nuns, phantom carriages, unexplained footsteps, and ghostly writings on walls. Paranormal investigator Harry Price conducted extensive studies in the 1930s, documenting strange occurrences. The house burned down in 1939 under mysterious circumstances. Despite skepticism, it remains a cornerstone of British ghost lore.
