Giffard Arms, Wolverhampton

A good deal of paranormal activity is reported at the Giffard Arms. Apart from poltergeist type activity such as glasses moving and doors opening and closing on their own there are at least three apparitions documented here.

Two of the ghosts may be experienced in the bar. A little girl has been seen playing in this area and a long dead landlord still likes to check that the pub is secure at night as he strides through the bar.

The other ghost associated with the Giffard Arms is that of Anne Horton. She was a prostitute who seems to have lingered from a time before the current pub was built. It seems she had a tendency to give her favours away if she liked a young gentleman. Indeed, her ghost has been known to follow young men home if she particularly takes a fancy to them!
