Last of the Local Legends: A Paranormal Ranking.


This is the second paranormal ranking, and I'm glad the last post got into double figures, otherwise I'd probably never do another one. Anyway, as you could guess by the title, this list is ranking all the sightings of the unexplainedin Ceredigion, especially around the Aberystwyth area. This blog has been largely absent this month due to school stuff (Year 13 is difficult, ya' know!) but I am doing this one, and a two-part special on Halloween itself! Stay tuned to this station! (I know there's no dial, I just like saying that.)

You might remember some of these from the surprisingly unpopular "Local Legends" posts. I'm not afraid to repeat, as people will actually bother to read this post.

5. The Promenade Couple: A simple pair of Class 3s allegedly from the 60's, but sighted in the 80's. They have been seen walking down the prom at Aberystwyth during the middle of the day, heading towards Constitution Hill. They must be tourists. The reason this one is at number five is that I consider it a nice little sighting, so worthy of the list, even though they have't been since.

4. The Consti Woman: The first ever place we went to to investigate was Constitution Hill in Aberystwyth to search for the Consti Woman. Now, nobody knows for sure who the Consti Woman was and she's only been seen about three times, but she has been described in meticulous detail nearly every time.

3. The Aber Castle Ghost: Biased, I know, but for third place I have chosen the possible ghost we detected in Aberystwyth Castle. Although this shouldn't really get third spot on this list, I've chose it as it contains evidence other than sightings. In the case of this possible ghost, high EMF Readings that weren't present the two times we went to check afterwards. There could be other explanations, but we weren't near any electrical equipment or internet hubs at the time, and when we went to scan the nearby outdoor circuit boxes, we found nothing. I'm not 100% convinced, as there's not enough to go on, but at least it's there.

2. The Plane: Lieutenant Xenophon Eugenedes was a pilot during the Second World War, who's plane crashed in the Plynlimon Mountains in Ceredigion in 1945. His plane has been seen still flying around the area where he crashed, and according to eyewitnesses, the plane didn't make noise. As he would have flown a Lockheed Lightning, they shouldn't be completely silent. One sighting has reported the plane flying at a ver low angle, was if it was about to crash, roughly in the same place where the plane wreck is. The plane wreck is still there, and I would like to see it one day, if only to get a few photos. However, most of it has been stolen or vandalised now.

1. Nanteos Mansion: The Ceredigion ghost hotspot, according to many people. The mansion has had a fair share of sightings, with ghosts being spotted by residents, visitors and even an S4C TV Crew who were bothered by a Class 3 so much, they packed up and left without finishing their recording! There's the ghost of William Griffiths, who was murdered by a gardener (Who killed him with a rake!) and the ghost of a man who drowned in a nearby lake. There's also a typical "Gray Lady" called Elizabeth Owen. During the 1930s, one man proclaimed he had seen Ms. Owen's ghost, but then he died later that day without explanation.

This is this last Local Legends post, hopefully it'll do better than all the previous entries with that name. Thanks for reading, stay tuned and Happy Hunting!

P.S: I've deliberately left off the UFO Crash in Llanilar from '83, as there's too much to go into for one post. If you're interested in that story, click this link: https://ghostguardhq.blogspot.com/2017/11/local-legends.html
