Conclusion

I would smile me a smile,

Sing me a song,

Dance me a dance

As the day is long.

But who would I partner,

Death or delight?

Now that is the question….

That is the fright!

 

Most of the uncanny happenings within the Tower of London have been experienced by sentries and yeoman warders. This is quite understandable, they being on duty in the Tower grounds during the traditional haunting times, the hours of darkness.

But should you, dear reader, visit the Tower of London, do not get the impression that you are exempt from similar experiences; do not think for one minute that the Past will not reach out and tap you on the shoulder, to remind you of the horrors and violence enacted within this most historic of castles.

Within and around the towers the memories linger, waiting perhaps to reveal themselves to those whose thoughts or sympathies may be receptive to them.

A candle flame is almost invisible in the sunlight -but it is still there. So it is with the Ghosts of the Tower of London - and if you look where the shadows linger, in the corners, round the stairs – you may see them too.
