We dare you to spend the night ghost hunting with Adrian Fuller Ghost Hunting Events at this "Most Haunted" of locations. The mysterious skull of a boy sits at the back of the bar even the sceptical owner is wary of moving the creepy artefact to avoid its haunting tantrums. Destined as it was to be the property of Kings and the home of governors, this fascinating pub is steeped in history going back hundreds of years, with the present building having been constructed in 1550. Although almost destroyed by fire in the nineteenth century, this extraordinary building has outlived the owner of the mysterious skull it houses, and outlasted those who have participated in great moments in England ‘s history. The illustration is of the ‘White Hart Inn’ in Silver Street Hull . This is the only depiction of it, before the alterations in 1881 by Smith & Brodrick. What is now the pub was originally a house built in the Artisan Mannerist style similar to Wilberforce House, probably in the 1620′s or early 1630′s. Perhaps, because of its historic and cultural importance, ‘Ye Olde White Harte’ has managed to remain relatively untouched over the years. The unmistakeable atmosphere of a place whose oak panelled walls and inglenook fireplaces have absorbed the good times and dealings of generations of revellers, plotters, shoppers, traders, diners and drinkers. It is a Grade 2 listed building and has some beautiful old tiled fireplaces, and became a pub in the late 1700′s, after which a fire damaged the staircase and the ground floor. One of the stories of the skull is that it is the skull of a youth, and a slight fracture mark suggests he died from a blow to the head, when an angry sea captain, well doused in French brandy, used the butt of his pistol with undue strength. The boy was placed under the staircase, and there remained undiscovered until after the fire, which occurred sometime in the 19th century. Some say it was found in the attic, during the renovations of 1881, and is the remains of some poor serving girl whose hapless life was squandered, perhaps as the result of a secret liaison, that, the landlord of the time was doubtless certain to ensure remained a secret, by placing the body in a dark attic and sealing it up. Some time ago the skull was removed for careful renovation, and doctors and physicians have examined it on a number of occasions. This human skull can be found in a small corner, behind the Small Saloon Bar, in a Perspex case, on entering the pub and turning to your left. To avoid telling you too much about the history of this extraordinary building we will only tell you some of the paranormal incidents that have happened here. The sound of footsteps walking across the restaurant floor has been witnessed by the general public in the downstairs bar area. One of the residents went to the toilet one night, stood washing his hand and notices a man stood behind him. He started talking to him and suddenly realises that this shadow of a person had no legs. The ghostly image was only there for 30 seconds before disappearing. Couple of years ago one of the locals was playing the old piano in one of the upstairs rooms and was startled when suddenly he noticed a figure of a person slowly appearing next to him. On another occasion a man was seen wearing a black cloak with a gold mask, he appeared to be dressed for a masked ball. Last year when the fire extinguisher was being checked the engineer turned to the manager and asked who was the lady dressed in blue on the stairs? The manager replied that the chef was the only other person who was in the building. Probably two of the most disturbing incidents were when the previous landlord and landlady were awoken by a woman’s scream within their room and on another occasion a lady who stayed at the pub felt someone climb onto the bed. She described the incident to be very frightening; it was as if someone was actually waking on the bed. Although the manager confesses to be a total sceptic he doesn’t like moving the old skull from its location behind the bar due to strange occurrences that have happened when it has been moved. |
