Ghost dubbed the 'woman in white' haunts beauty spot and tells visitors to 'f*** off'

A beauty spot is being plagued by a gobby ' ghost ' who has been telling visitors to ‘f**k off’, fed up residents claim.

Locals are growing tired of the rude ghoul - said to be a 'woman in white' - who apparently tells people to leave the area in no uncertain terms.

The creepy resident reportedly swears at visitors to Dead Woman's Ditch, a beauty spot on Somerset's Quantock Hills - and she has already been discussed on This Morning.

The spectre is said to haunt the spot near Over Stowey, a site named after the historic murder of Jane Walford who was killed by her husband John in 1789.

Sightings of the mouthy phantom have been on the rise.

Ghosthunting couple Christine and Dave Thomas launched an investigation into the paranormal being in 2020.

Christine claims she was shouted at and told to 'f*** off' by the ''nasty, evil spirits''.

She says she and her husband Dave picked up on a voice before being rudely told to leave.

The pair claim to have had other encounters there - with the ghost of a murderer from 1798.

Dave told Somerset Live : "There is definitely something there. My wife has experienced it for a long time. There are two types of voices.

"There's the residual memories being replayed which people pick up on without being able to communicate with. Then there are voices you can interact with, which you can have an exchange with, which can answer questions.

"Not all, but some can be quite nasty, evil spirits. Not everybody is aware of ghosts. 'That's because some people have weaker barriers than others and are more likely to come across one."

Other locals have reported seeing a ghost there. One said: "When I was about 17 on my way home from work, driving along a cold road, I saw a bright white figure on the side of the road so I slowed down.

''It appeared to be a woman completely dressed in white, old-fashioned clothing. 'I couldn’t take my eyes off as I drove past. I couldn’t bring myself to turn around to have another look. I just drove home in complete shock."

Another said: "I’ve seen what looks like a tall figure with a long dark coat on outside the pub, on the edge of the road. Checked back and no-one there."

Nick Ferrari, a host for radio station LBC, last year said: "It seems like something out of Midsomer Murders, doesn't it?

"This particular woman is furious with her roots, that's what I reckon."
