The Living Ghosts of Prudhoe Castle: A True Short Story

After the Norman conquest of 1066, Prudhoe Castle was inhabited for nine centuries, but following the First World War, it fell into decay. In the 1940s, a wealthy landowner, after acquiring nearby land, offered Elizabeth Rogers and her mother accommodation at the castle, forcing them to leave their cottage. Although the arrangement spared them homelessness, Elizabeth recounts the challenges of castle life, including a lack of modern amenities and the eerie presence of ghosts.
