Given the sheer age of London and the number of people that have passed through its gates over the centuries, it would be difficult to imagine it not being haunted. Though, as the tale of the Hammersmith Ghost will show, ghosts aren't always what they appear to be.

This tale takes us to Hammersmith, a rural area to the west of London on the River Thames. It marks the point where London meets the countryside. 

December 1803 will be marked by sightings of a ghost, which will ultimately end in tragedy. Let's explore the tale of the Hammersmith Ghost in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
