Have discovered that a distant rellie lived in a 'haunted house' somewhere in the gorton area of manchester, would like to trace the family so wondered if there were records or lists of houses considered haunted. Any ideas George

Don't know of any sites, sorry. We supposedly have a haunted building in our town. The "old timers" (both elderly people and longtime residents) know about it. Is there a way you could ask longtime residents in the Gorton area? Or, could you post a notice in the newspaper? Or, perhaps you folks in England have quite a few haunted houses and it would be impossible to narrow down which one you want. Good luck.

Hi George, See if your local college or Uni has a Parapsychology unit, some of the larger town or cities do. They may have a list of 'known' hauntings. Or even check local papers. Daz

George, just a suggestion and maybe not a very good one but why not try the most haunted website. AFter all, they visit haunted locations every week. maybe they could give you some tips. Not sure of addy so just put most haunted or living tv in google.
