Ghost stories always attract curious minds and Lincoln is a hive for sightings. Local businesses say they get trade from specific interest in hauntings.

Brown’s Pie Shop has a history of ghost sightings. “Humphrey” is the name they’ve given to the spirit of a little boy they believe visits the cellar. Owner, Alan Gill says customers come as far as Oxford to catch a glimpse of a ghost.

Michelle Simms from the local Tourist Information Centre has noticed a rise in visitors after programmes like Most Haunted visit the city.

Over the Halloween weekend, tourism numbers are likely to see a rise.

Emma Sellars at the Green Dragon believes the ghosts in her pub are unhappy and agressive.

“If you are good, you attract good” says Susan Winter, a psychic medium from Lincoln. She says that different types of spirits are attracted to different types of people. This could mean disappointment for amateur ghost hunters.

Hear Ashley Partridge’s full report below.
