September Haunting at The Grenadier Pub, Wilton Row, London

If you're interested in the supernatural September is the time to visit The Grenadier Pub, 18 Wilton Row, Belgrave Square, London.

It was once an officer's mess said to have been frequented by the Duke of Wellington and even George V and it's during the month of September that the paranormal activity increases. Items are moved, chairs and tables rattled, footsteps and voices heard, cold spots develop, people are pushed and a ghostly figure which vanishes suddenly has been observed.

Cedric, as bar staff and customers have named the ghost, is believed to be the ghost of a soldier caught cheating at cards, beaten by his fellow card players as punishment who subsequently died as a result of his injuries. Due to the increase in ghostly activities during the month if September it is assumed that this is the month he died in.

It's said that a film crew once captured a photograph of a ghostly soldier looking into The Grenadier and that one unfortunate customer, a Chief Superintendent from Scotland Yard, was burned by an invisible cigarette.
