In October 1893, strange events were reported in the village of Tongwynlais. The country house owned of Mr and Mrs Lewis was said to be haunted by many a ghost, including the so-called Lady in Grey who was heard, felt, and even seen - a full body apparition.
Its activity included wrapping her arm around an unsuspecting victim, stomping around in her high-heeled shoes, and there were even accounts of clairvoyance in the home. Luckily, one witness turned ghost hunter and recorded the details for the press.
What does it all mean? It's time to join author Mark Rees (Ghosts of Wales) and go on a paranormal investigation on the Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast.
What is the Ghosts & Folklore of Wales with Mark Rees podcast?
In early 2020, Mark Rees launched the world’s first podcast dedicated to Welsh ghost stories, folklore, myths and legends.
By combining his unique research and insights from many books and articles with long-lost tales from dusty old tomes, this weird and wonderful podcast takes a fascinating look at countless curious subjects.
New episodes are uploaded every Thursday, and feature everything from real-life encounters with pesky poltergeists to fantastical beasts from the Mabinogion and the skulled-headed Christmas favourite herself, the Mari Lwyd.
