8.Victoria & Albert Museum :- The Great Bed of ware,which is kept in the museum,is said to be haunted by its maker,Johas Fosbrooke,a carpenter from Ware in Hertfordshire.he made mammoth bed in 1463 for Edward IV.It measured approximately 3.4m long 3.3m wide.When the king's 13 year old son and heir disappeared in 1483,probably murdered,the bed was sold and eventually came into the ownership of a succession of ware innkeepers,who used it during local festivals when the town was crowded.Once,in the 17th century,12 married couples are alleged to have slept in it together.From beyond the grave,Jonas Fosbrooke was not at all happy about his great bed's fall in status,and his ghost was reputed to pinch and scratch anyone who slept in it,because his gift was not being used by royalty.
9.Haymarket :- Former actor manager J.B.Buckstone occasionally appears at the Harymarket Theatre,and his ghost is welcome because it is said to bring good luck.
10.University College :- The fully clothed,straw-upholstered skeleton of Jeremy Bentham,the law reformer who died in 1832,sits in a glass case in the cloister of University college,where his ghost has aooarently been seen and heard.Bentham's preserved head,originally placed between his feet,was removed and stored separately when it became rank,and was stolen many times.Once it was found in a left-luggage locker in Aberdeen.Today it rests in a refrigerator in the college vaults but,despite the odd attack by beetles,his wax headed body continues to live an active life.In 2002 it was taken to Essen's Ruhrlandmuseum.
