Hi Ash,

Yes the ghost train at the Pleasure Beach is quite a well known one, whether it is true or not im not too sure, apparently "Most Haunted" did an investigation there no that many years back.

The Green face tale, iv seen many an apparition like that, one's more than likely to find them roughly around same time each year at "Glastonbury Festival"!.

Welcome to GPS and hope you find your stay at GPS a fun and exciting one, with many a true story to tell yourself in the near future!

oh its true i used to work at the pleasure beach and have heard it after closing time, and before we opened. ive also had him touch me when i went on it.

im guessing no one is at all interested lol

Hi Ash

It sounds like blackpool is full of haunts and legends , i have only ever once been to Blackpool as a child to see the illuminations which was alot of fun , i'm sorry to say that i haven't been back since .

greets
ian

I have visited Blackpool a few times with work, and I do think that the old flavour of some parts gives an eerie feel to it. The pleasure beech is a great place, as to is the theatre. Whilst I was up in those parts I stayed in Fleetwood. The place is buzzing with UFO activity, and the two B&B's I slept in were both rumoured to be haunted. I did have a strange nights sleep in one of them. Kept hearing the bathroom door handle turn, open and close.... I can not remember what the place was called though !!!

Good research Ash, if we do decise to visit Blackpool we know we have an official tour guide to help us
