My interest in ghosts and haunted houses probably stems from when I was a child and discovered that my grandparents owned a haunted pub. I would listen intently to all the tales, which ultimately fuelled my interest in the supernatural. <br><br>It wasn\u2019t until much later &#8211; 1995, that I took the initiative and formed an investigative group composed of people I selected for their objective open-mindedness. What followed were several years spent investigating some pretty eerie locations. <br><br>Wiltshire&#8217;s ancient landscape has a unique beauty, often wild and mysterious, with a rich tapestry of hauntings, folklore and legends. A county regarded by many commentators and authors as possibly the most haunted in Britain. I hope you enjoy my blog posts here, but please forgive me if some of my ramblings are a little tongue-in-cheek. I remain as always, an open-minded sceptic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hauntedwiltshire.blogspot.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WillowHWB-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Ghosts Wiltshire - Willow\" class=\"wp-image-3310\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WillowHWB-768x1024.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WillowHWB-150x200.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WillowHWB-244x325.jpg 244w, http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WillowHWB-250x333.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\" class=\"has-larger-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\n\nThe Ghosts of Wiltshire\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\" class=\"has-regular-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Click on the links below to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-avebury-manor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Avebury Manor&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;Avebury<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-black-swan-hotel-devizes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Black Swan Hotel &#8211; Devizes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-devizes-castle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Devizes Castle<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Longleat House&nbsp;-&nbsp;nr&nbsp;Warminster (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-longleat-house\/\" target=\"_blank\">Longleat House&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;nr&nbsp;Warminster<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-westwood-manor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Westwood Manor &#8211; Bradford on Avon<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-westwood-manor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"> <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Ghosts of Wiltshire - Your Encounters (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.alexandramay.co.uk\/author\/ghosts-wiltshire-your-encounters\" target=\"_blank\">Ghosts of Wiltshire &#8211; Your Encounters<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Willow of <\/em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Willow of Haunted Wiltshire Blog page has kindly allowed me to use the below information For more supernatural and paranormal happenings in Wiltshire, please visit&nbsp;his blog here.
