This Grey Lady is said to haunt the pathways around the lake, eerily walking along, completely unaware of everything else around her.

Inside the house, staff have reported seeing another Grey Lady-type spirit, but this has been described more like a young servant girl.

She's been seen many times, but only wandering around the corridors and rooms of the upper floors of the house.

But there is another similar spirit who has been incredibly active over the years.

She shares a very similar description to the young woman seen inside the house, and some believe that it's the same person, similar age, similar long plain dress.

This spirit has surprised and terrified so many innocent drivers by walking straight in front of their cars.

Just like the Cavalier, she has been seen crossing the road and heading towards the house.

And the strange thing is that the exact position where she is seen disappearing through the fence used to be the location of a gate.

But being from a different time, she wouldn't know that, and she wouldn't even realize that cars were about her, speeding past her on the road.

She's thought to be a senior servant, but her reason for running across the road towards the house has never really been established.

Former retired head park warden Alan Peace has witnessed five car accidents which have taken place almost outside the main gates of Himley Hall.

All caused by the appearance of a young woman in a long plain dress, running directly in front of their cars, and disappearing through the fence.

Alan has done his best to piece together information including descriptions of the woman, and as far as he can tell, it seems that she was a senior servant girl who lived at a nearby farm, but worked at the house.

This was most likely during the Victorian era.

One very strange event which may have involved this woman happened to a man who was on his way to the Himley Hall Hotel, which is literally just around the corner from the main house.

He was driving there to attend a talk, and this was February 2006 at around 7pm, so it would have been quite dark by that time.

As he was making his way along the A449, he spotted a figure standing on the grass verge near the road.

The witness said that he thought this was odd, because the verge it was standing on sloped away quite significantly, with no footpath towards the road.

The other side of the road was the location of the bordering wall of Hemley Hall's grounds.

The witness said that they initially thought that it was a stupid place to stand, because if the figure had lost its footing and fell, he would have no time to react and avoid it.
