Get ready for a chilling true ghost story on Ghost Tales by the Fireside! In this episode, we share the unsettling account of a family's terrifying experience in their "dream" cottage located in the quiet village of Stonnall, near Walsall in the West Midlands, UK.
In the summer of 1997, a family seeking a peaceful life moved into an charming 18th-century cottage. Despite their skepticism about haunted houses, strange occurrences began almost immediately. From an invisible force assaulting their daughter to a disturbing apparition at their bedside, the paranormal activity quickly escalated. Foul odors, flickering lights, and an oppressive atmosphere became daily realities, forcing the children to abandon their own rooms.
Driven by fear and a desperate need for answers, the mother investigated the cottage's dark past. Her research led her to the infamous Welsh Harp coaching inn, a building steeped in local lore of hidden tunnels, criminals, and a history of violence and mysterious deaths, including a rumored tunnel leading directly to their property. Could the history of the Welsh Harp be connected to the entities haunting their home?
Things reached a terrifying climax when pictures were violently hurled from the walls, shattering the father's skepticism. The family's emotional well-being deteriorated, and the mother began experiencing disturbing visions and fragmented memories that were not her own. The constant fear and malevolent energy eventually forced them to flee their home in the dead of night, leaving everything behind.
This is a powerful and unsettling true account of a UK haunting that will make you question what truly lies beneath the surface of seemingly peaceful places. Join us as we explore the chilling legacy of the Stonnall cottage and the lingering whispers of its past.

I found this story a few months ago. It was written by James Mills Woodward who was a local artist and amateur archaeologist in the town of Redditch in Worcestershire, England. The story was published by the Redditch Indicator in weekly articles at Christmas in 1887. It was then republished in 1924.So 100 years later, I'll be releasing the story in its modern form a podcast.
