Spook Of The Day #241 • A woman’s corpse was once sealed away in a hidden chamber in this quaint Devon cottage
Chambercombe Manor is the sort of place you wish you could afford. Nestled just off the coast of Devon with its magnificent gardens and sprawling size, any ol’ estate agent would tell you that yes, this is a very nice property.
The locals, however, might tell you otherwise.
This manor dates back to the 11th century, and somewhere in that 1000 year history a woman who was found on a shipwreck was taken here for shelter. She was injured and thus given a bed, warmth, and food to recover. She did not. She died shortly after being discovered.
Her death wasn’t as pleasant as appears however. Residents recently found a concealed room containing the remains of a female corpse on a bed. It is believed she was lured into the house, robbed, and sealed away so she would never be found.
Understandably, the manor is now believed to be haunted.
