The mysterious disappearance of antique candlesticks haunted their owner, but after a while, someone returned the stolen back, maybe it was a ghost or two at once?
Ripley Castle is located in Yorkshire, which, like every British citadel, is famous for its ghosts. England, as you know, is the focus of ghostly activity - it is there that more than half of the restless spirits live. Ripley Castle is one of their residences.
The owner of the castle, Sir Thomas Ingilby, told the ghost hunters an interesting story about how the ghost stole the silver candlesticks in 2014 and returned them in 2017.
The $ 10,000 artifacts suddenly disappeared three years ago, leaving Sir Thomas at a loss. The search for the castle led nowhere, and the owner turned to the insurance company to cover losses from the loss of valuable candelabra. Surprisingly, after three years they were found in a Christmas bag. Sir Thomas suspects this is the trick of a mischievous poltergeist. This is not the first time he has shown his peculiar sense of humor.
Several years ago a set of silverware disappeared from the castle and - oh, a miracle! - after a year and a half, he was surprisingly found. The aristocrat suggests that such jokes were invented by two ghosts at once - Henry and Mary Ingilby, who died at the end of the 19th century in this castle from leukemia.
The owner of the castle, by the way, returned the money to the insurers, who reimbursed the losses from the loss of candlesticks - by their admission, the compensation was returned to them for the first time in many years of work.
