Spooked businessman flees 'haunted' mansion

Anwar Rashid and his wife Nabila spent £3.6 million on Clifton Hall in Nottinghamshire but a year later were so desperate to get rid of it that they gave it back to their mortgage provider.

The couple moved in with their three daughters aged seven, five and three, and baby son in January 2007, and it was not long before they were spooked by the sound of screams from the mansion's corridors.

During their eight months in the former school, the couple also saw mysterious figures which took the form of their children.

Mr Rashid, 32, who is worth £25 million and made his money through a chain of nursing homes and a hotel in Dubai, compared his experience to the 2001 film The Others, starring Kidman, in which a family is forced out of their home by ghosts.

I read the mail's article and it mentioned that there was rumoured to be a network of tunnels which were once used by "satanists." Interesting to me. The security company said that people had been sent there who didn't know about the ghosts and the next morning resigned. Seems like the Borley Rectory, perhaps there is more to that place than just ghosts.
