Dudley Castle: Ghost Jacob

Hidden Black Country

Available for over a year

From castles to tunnels to railway stations to catacombs. The West Midlands reportedly has some of the most haunted locations in the country. Dudley Castle is one of the most haunted locations of them all. So much history and so many figures from its’ past – who are said to still roam the grounds to this day. Of course one of the darkest times in the Castle’s history came in 1750 – when a devastating fire swept through the building. And the first ever ghostly sighting reported at the Castle dates back to the 19th century. This is the story of Ghost Jacob.
