Seven haunted waters


 Sometimes during Summer the urge to go and cool off in water makes people explore the natural lakes and rivers. They often do this without knowing the folklore and myths about these bodies of water. Here are some spooky waters to list.

Coombe Pool in Coventry, England, is the site of a few hauntings. A pool favoured by fishermen, anglers and swimmers, it's been widely reported that ghosts linger there by the water. These ghosts include a Medieval monk, a Victorian woman and a headless horseman. 

Caerphilly Castle in South Wales, is a dreamy looking place situated by a crystal clear lake. It's ghost is a beautiful apparition named "The Green Lady" who is often seen around the castle and the grounds, passing the water's edge. It's believed she's the ghost of a princess, who is thought to be Alice of Angouleme, who died from a broken heart when her lover was killed. 

People who enjoy holidaying at the River Bure in Horning, Norfolk, are scared when the chilling screeches of a ghost echo throughout the area, coming from the nearby ruins of St Benet's Abbey. It's believed that it's haunted by an angry monk named Essric who was brutally killed by Norman soldiers. 

Crookes Valley Park has a haunted lake, although a favourite place for tourists during Summer months. Not only is it spooky at night with the ghost of a girl, but the depths of the water is full of monstrous fish that divers avoid entering it. Some believe these unnatural fish are from scientific experiments by the University.

Bride's Pool, Hong Kong, is a picturesque looking pool of water with a graceful waterfall. Despite its natural beauty, it's haunted by a young woman who tragically died on her way to get married. People have reported seeing a ghostly form of a lady in red, and Asian brides wear red cheongsam gowns.

Devil's Pool, Australia is a haunted pool surrounded by rocks and a sparkling waterfall. The ghost of a young woman has been seen around there and even dipping into the pool. It's believed that she's the spirit of an Aborigine woman named Oolana who flung to her death after losing her beloved. 

Manchac Wetlands, Louisiana, is a cursed place haunted by a voodoo priestess, as it was where she lived. Some claim that she is spirit of Julie White, who often sat on her porch and sang "One day I'm gonna die, and I'm gonna take all of you with me." Shortly after her death in 1915, a vicious hurricane appeared and destroyed three nearby villages, and claimed the lives of hundreds of people in the area.
