Ghost of Lady Daresbury - Frances Eliza Griffith (Greenall) at Walton Hall a June Haunting


Frances Eliza Griffith, Lady Daresbury, first left in the above photograph and pictured below with her husband Gilbert Greenall, Baron Daresbury (on the right) is believed to be one of the ghosts that haunt Walton Hall near Warrington.



Lady Daresbury died in her bathroom in the 20th century, Walton Hall is now open to the public and apparently those visiting her adjoining bedroom risk something unpleasant happening to them if the ghost of Lady Daresbury does not approve of them! 

Lady Daresbury's ghost has been seen on the main staircase where some people have felt as if they have been pushed. Are those who have been pushed the one's who did not win the approval of Lady Daresbury?

In his 1970's book, "Haunted Britain A guide to the supernatural in England, Scotland and Wales",  Antony D. Hippisley Coxe writes about an occurrence that takes place in June where a bolted door opens then slams shut after about 30 seconds. This is attributed to the ghost of an elderly 18th century lady who died in her bathroom.     

Does Walton Hall have two female ghosts who both happened to die in their respective bathrooms?

Walton Hall has been visited by the Most Haunted team and at the time of writing the TV episode is available for viewing on YouTube
