Lumley Castle near Chester-Le-Street in County Durham is said to be the county's most haunted castle. Lady Lily is the most famous ghost, yet there are a number of other spectres that are known to haunt the place. Join me in this video where I tell the story of the Lumley family's history, the tragic tale of Lily, and detail the experiences of the cricket teams that have stayed here over the years.

The Jolly Reiver is my project aiming to preserve and promote the forgotten folklore and history of rural Britain and Ireland. Primarily focusing on folklore and legends, you’ll not find me trying to deconstruct these old stories or trying to rationalise them with science and psychology. Instead I will present them as they were always told by our forebears, and leave the conclusions up to you. Videos are filmed on location to show you exactly where these stories took place.
