The ghost of a monk has been spotted at the
castle on several occasions. This is thought to be the ghost of the
Bishop of Morley, who lived at the castle for some time and spent the last
years of his life sleeping in a coffin in a tiny room. It has been reported
that there is a strange atmosphere around this room by the staircase of the
castle, and any dog who is brought near to the place becomes terrified.
Other apparitions include a young dancing girl
(said to have been forced to dance until she collapsed in exhaustion and
died), and a woman dressed in costume typical of the thirteenth
century.
