The Bronte Village
Interactive Ghost Walk Haworth West Yorkshire
The Black Bull is known to be one of most haunted inns in the UK. This 300 year old public house was Patrick Branwell Bronte’s (brother of Charlotte, Emily & Anne Bronte) favourite place to drink. The Grave-Yard was located next to the spring from which the town got the majority of its water. The graveyard is an incredibly crowded–one sometimes buried ten deep. The water flowed through the graveyard, causing it to be contaminated. 41 percent of the population died before age 6 as a result of the contaminated water. Those who drank beer at the Black Bull were also exposed; the bar used that water to brew their beer. The sheer number of deaths in a small town adds to the theory that the place could be haunted.
