GHOST-BUSTERS from Halesowen are hunting ‘a phantom figure seen along the Bromsgrove Road’.

The local paranormal research group, Parasearch, received reports of the alleged ghost in Romsley last week with the latest sighting occurring on the night of Monday May 2.

Parasearch chairman David Taylor said: “As the witness was driving home down the Bromsgrove Road towards the Manchester Inn, he was startled to see he figure of a young woman standing by the side of the road.

“She was in her mid-30’s with black hair and a cream cloak. She was holding a long, old fashioned walking staff.”

Parasearch are currently investigating reports of haunted roads in the area, and would be keen to hear from any motorists who may have have strange experiences along this stretch of road.

David Taylor added: “We have a large number of reports of ghosts seen along roads in the Halesowen area. These sightings are all made by believable people who have been genuinely shocked by what they have seen”.

To report a sighting, in confidence, ring Parasearch on 07505 323443 or email david.taylor@parasearch.org.uk.
