Boar's Head pub spirit

Last updated: 16 October 2007

Does this photograph prove that ghosts really exist?

Cheshire Paranormal Society (CPS) took this photo during an investigation in the Boar's Head pub, Mold. Does it show a ghost?

There is a picture frame at the back of the room on the wall, it shows a flash it could be that. But if you look closely you can make out the shape of someone standing with their back to us with their head down.

I'm 14, and I believe in ghosts, but frankly I think this one is sunlight/flash reflecting off a mirror. If you want ghosts try going to Old Melbourne Gaol. Scary stuff.

Has anybody seen anythng strange in the Mold ex servicemans club (bottom club)? Some people have heard/seen things near the ladies toilets and have got pics of this.

I think this is a ghost! Just heard about the girl ghost in the party shop too! FREAKY!

I think this is fake, it's probably a stain on the window although I do believe in ghosts.

Mirror in the back
There's a mirror in the back of this picture and the mirror shows a camera flash. What if it has something more to do with how light ricochets of the mirror, combined with how the camera captured the pic?

I am 11 and I believe in ghosts and I believe in this ghost. My town is very haunted. I go to this pub with my dad and it gets cold in summertime in 1 place.

Who's to say? Ghosts can manifest themselves in ways which boggle human comprehension. My ghost pic in Yorkshire Evening Post proves that.

I did see something just like this 20 years ago in this very pub... It was my mate Simon who ripped the filter tip of the silk cut he was smoking. It nearly set off the alarm! Mind you, it was nowhere as scary as the decor in the Dolphin the last time I went in.

Why take a picture of a chair hummmmm? Our pub (The Dolphin in Mold) isn't haunted, it's 500 yrs old and we've lived there 5 yrs and have never seen anything.

My school is haunted because 3 years ago when I was 5 in the summer holidays I went to see how it was going and all I could hear was doors slamming. I looked in the window and they were slamming on their own. A few days later I went back and they were still slamming!

Wow that is a ghost - it's freaking me out (sarcastic face*)

This picture is a bit suspect because who wants to take a picture of a chair in a pub? Pretty boring.

Apparently the most haunted pub in Mold is the Dolphin, in particular the rooms upstairs - some very creepy stories about that place.

Cool ghost - great pub!

I worked in this pub every week for 2 years doing karaoke. There is something in there as when certain songs or singers were on, the equipment would play up. I never had any of these problems anywhere else I worked. Good haunting.

As a worker in the Boar's Head this is defo a ghost. Try sleeping in that same spot after a busy New Year's Eve night, love to see how you get on cause frankly I won't be doing it again and whilst you are there pop down to the cellar and say hi to the kids, karoake on Sunday night -we'll seeya there.

It's an eerie ghostly figure of sunlight shining through a window... Eeeck! Clearly a very sunny day outside and the sun is shining through the window, shock, gasp! Sue from Llangollen, I think you'd been sitting in the pub for one too many when you posted your 'sightings'... A hooded man, and hand AND a white mist?
