The Friary - Haunted History

Derby, Derbyshire

The Friary is built on the site of a former Dominican friary, which is why the building is believed to be haunted by a black-robed monk. He's often spotted in the basement and in one particular corridor. The building is now a pub, but was once the home of Henry Mosley, who shot himself there. Ever since the spirit of a Victorian gentleman is said to haunt the upstairs of the property, believed to be the trapped soul of Mosley.
