Bradford City Hall - Haunted History

Bradford, West Yorkshire
The Grade I listed, 19th century town hall in Centenary Square is one of the city's most recognisable landmarks because of its distinctive clock tower. The building has had several uses over the years, the cellar once housed the city's police cells and it is a former prisoner called Charlie who is said to haunted the building today. He was held in the cells before being executed.
His ghost has been blamed for a general feeling of unease and for what has been described as poltergeist activity. Staff have also reported hearing the sounds of a full court in session, but upon entering the old courtroom have found it to be completely empty.
