Tower

 For many years the Tower served as a royal

prison for the guilty nobility, and many people

died in its walls. Over the centuries, employees

and visitors hear and see a lot of ghosts in

various parts of the castle. Most often they see

two princes - King Edward VII and his younger

brother Richard, Duke of York, walking arm in

arm. They were treacherously killed by order of

their own uncle - Richard III.

 Annually, on the anniversary of the execution of

the Countess of Salisbury, beheaded by the order

of Henry VIII, a vision appears. Eyewitnesses

clearly watch the countess ghost and hear her

screams, see the executioner, preparing to do his

job. As soon as the ax descends, everything

disappears.
