Is Widecombe a Ghost Town?
There have been a number of reports from the United States that Widecombe is haunted and/or is a ghost town. These stories have originated from a TV programme described by one correspondent as follows:Saw an interesting television program on Ghost Stories - this particular episode featured the American actor Daniel Stern. He and his wife in 1980 were on their honeymoon in England and traveling by car to Tavistock, where they had reservations - on the way seeing the Old church steeple or tower of Widecombe, they stopped to visit the village.
They parked in the town square and noticed about 30-40 people walking about slowly all dressed in black and no one speaking.
They left the town later to be told by the innkeeper in Tavistock where they had lodging reservations that the old church had been struck by lightning and many people died in the church as it had occurred during a service.
It was surmised that they were seeing the ghosts of those killed in the fire who are still unsettled from the experience.
