Imagine a street so haunted you have to sign a waiver to move there. While it may sound like something plucked straight from a horror film, this really did happen – on an unassuming council estate in Bolton.
A poltergeist was said to haunt a row of homes on Wingates Grove in Westhoughton for years, tormenting families who lived there throughout the 1990s.
The paranormal activity became so frightening, it’s alleged even Bolton Council was forced to intervene – but staff couldn’t find a rational explanation for what was going on. Due to it’s infamy, some maintenance workers reportedly refused to visit the street.
