Borley Rectory - Essex, Essex

Supposedly one of the most haunted locations in the United Kingdom, apparitions have appeared in photographs, objects have moved on their own, and out-of-place-looking figures have been witnessed all over the grounds of this house. Supposedly, a monk and nun tried to elope around here, but were caught and killed by their disapproving elders. One room, "The Blue Room", has had two separate deaths occur; other reports tell of a group of nuns walking somewhere along the side of the building. Unfortunately, most the building burned down, but the remains of it is still active with ghostly energy. (Submitted by Chris Berglund)
