Quote:Security Camera Catches 'Ghost' at English Palace

Saturday, December 20, 2003

LONDON — Are there ghostly goings-on at Henry VIII's palace, or is that hazy image of a fellow in fancy robes just a bit of Christmas cheer?



Closed-circuit security cameras at Hampton Court Palace (search), the huge Tudor castle outside London, seem to have snagged an ethereal visitor. Could it be a ghost?

"We're baffled too — it's not a joke, we haven't manufactured it," said Vikki Wood, a Hampton Court spokeswoman, when asked if the photo the palace released was a Christmas hoax. "We genuinely don't know who it is or what it is."

Wood said security guards had seen the figure in closed-circuit television footage after checking it to see who kept leaving open one of the palace's fire doors.

In the still photograph, the figure of a man in a robe-like garment is shown stepping from the shadowy doorway, one arm reaching out for the door handle.

The area around the man is somewhat blurred, and his face appears unnaturally white compared with his outstretched hand.

"It was incredibly spooky because the face just didn't look human," said James Faukes, one of the palace security guards.

"My first reaction was that someone was having a laugh, so I asked my colleagues to take a look. We spoke to our costumed guides, but they don't own a costume like that worn by the figure. It is actually quite unnerving," Faukes said.

The palace, built in 1525 on the River Thames 10 miles west of central London, is a popular tourist attraction and some of the guides wear costumes of the Tudor period.

Wood said she was hoping people would come forward with similar stories and try to explain the figure.

The palace has been the scene of many dramatic royal events, and already is supposed to have a few ghosts.

King Henry VIII's third wife, Jane Seymour (search), died there giving birth to a son, and her ghost is said to walk through one of the cobbled courtyards carrying a candle.

Her son, Edward, had a nurse called Sibell Penn (search) who was buried in the palace grounds in 1562. In 1829 her tomb was disturbed by building work, and around the same time an odd whirring noise began to be heard in the southwest wing of the palace. When workmen traced the strange sounds to a brick wall, they uncovered a small forgotten room containing an old spinning wheel, just like the one Penn used to use.

Henry's fifth wife, Catherine Howard (search), condemned for adultery, was held at the palace under house arrest before her execution at the Tower of London. An 1897 book about the palace says she was reportedly seen, dressed in white and floating down one of the galleries uttering unearthly shrieks.

The palace was once a prison for King Charles I, who later was beheaded, and then home to his nemesis Oliver Cromwell (search), who briefly ruled when Britain was for a short time a republic.

  People who ruin great movies
Posted by: GonzoStyle - 12-22-2003, 03:58 AM - Forum: Entertainment Unlimited - Replies (62)

This is a thing I have mulled over for a number of years, it was rehashed in my mind with the saved by the bell thread I started.

But it's so true, that no matter how great a movie is there is always atleast one weak link who ruins the film and upon further viewings of the movie you find yourself skipping their scenes in the film.

This also applies to TV shows as well.

Name me any movie or TV show and I will point out a weak link, if I have seen it.

My biggest quam is with Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, she is simply horrid in every film she is in. One of my most favorite films 'Scarface' is my biggest beefs with her presence. She also ruins Color Of Money and Abyss for me.

I couldn't stand Tim Roth in resevoir dogs, Talia Shire in the 1st Godfather, Ray Liotta in Goodfellas, Albert Brooks in Taxi Driver, and the list can go on and on.

  So who gets your vote?

I been sayin for a while that Bush ain't gettin re-elected but after listening to the democratic candidates debate on numerous occasions I am not too sure about that.

There really isn't someone who grabs me as "he could lead us".

Clinton was different, he just had it, most likely Dean will be the democratic rep. against Bush and he is too shaky on his stances. I'd gladly vote for Lieberman but a jew president isn't too likely, VP yeah but not Pres.

I think sadly that Bush might just get another 4 years even though there's still a while left.
