Ghost Hunting at The Bull Hotel, Long Melford

The Bull Hotel in Long Melford offers a rich paranormal experience with its documented murder and resident spirits. Here are some tips for your ghostly stay.

The Bull Hotel is a prime destination for ghost enthusiasts, boasting a history of violence and numerous spectral encounters.

Tips for Your Paranormal Investigation:

  • Request Room 4: This room is the epicenter of Richard Evered's haunting. Be prepared for potential footsteps, knocks, or even sightings.
  • Staircase Vigil: The main staircase is the domain of the Phantom Maid. Spend some time here quietly observing, especially during late hours.
  • Moody's Bar: The snug bar area has reports of knocks and groans, possibly linked to Evered. Enjoy a pint and listen carefully.
  • DIY Ghost Hunt: Bring a voice recorder for EVP sessions in Room 4 or the 'Ghost Corridor.' Some guests have attempted 'one flash for yes, two for no' communication.
  • Guest Ghost Log: Ask staff if you can see or contribute to the guest ghost log, where previous encounters are sometimes recorded.
  • Mummified Cat: Don't miss the mummified cat in the bar, a historical charm against evil spirits that adds to the inn's mystique.

Respectful Exploration: Remember The Bull is an operational inn. Keep noise to a minimum during late-night explorations and be mindful of other guests. The staff are generally open to discussing the ghosts but appreciate respectful curiosity.

Whether you encounter Richard Evered or the Phantom Maid, a stay at The Bull offers a memorable brush with Suffolk's haunted history.
