Ghost hunt workshops at Northumberland castle - the 'most haunted' in the UK - are out to raise the spirits

Tickets are on sale for new ghost hunt workshops at a castle billed as the most haunted in the UK which is inviting people to learn how to contact the spirit world.

Chillingham Castle in Northumberland is famous for its spooky reputation and it is now preparing to host a new event - in addition to its popular ghost tours - which involves acquiring some spectre-hunting skills and then putting them to the test. Over the years, there have been frequent reports of paranormal incidents at the ancient fortress and it has even been named as the most haunted castle in the UK.

Those interested in seances, ouija boards and vigils are always keen to explore the creepy castle's dark past which includes a pretty gory history of attack. The 12th Century stronghold, whose royal visitors over the centuries have included kings Henry III; Edward I, James I, Charles I and Edward VIII, is said to have a number of ghostly residents.
