The Haunting

The 1833 Umpleby House has a concise but memorable inn haunting. HauntedPlaces says the spirits are mill runners Colonel Buckley and Mr. Black. The most visual detail is the Colonel's lantern, said to bob through the halls. The name itself supplies the key date: 1833.

A 2014 guest comment adds a first-person layer, describing a second-floor stay in 2000 with loud unexplained noises and invisible hands touching the guest. That should be framed as a personal report, not verification, but it gives the page stronger human detail than the original short listing.

What People Are Saying

Summary of visitor and community commentary

People talk about the house through named spirits rather than vague atmosphere: Colonel Buckley, Mr. Black, and the lantern in the halls. A commenter who stayed on the second floor in 2000 reported loud unexplained noises and a sensation of invisible hands.

The story is compact but useful because it has a date, named figures, and a specific recurring image: lantern light moving through an old inn.
