Henry Price, head of the Society for Psychical Research, hopes to make contact with the ghost of a deceased nun on the grounds of an old monastery built in 1863 on the Stour River in Essex, England, and later becoming a priory in the parish of a local priest.
According to Henry Price's notes in his diary, howls, footsteps and graffiti are the work of a deceased nun in the English village of Borley. The parish priest's house, built in 1863, initially as a monastery, seemed destined to become a haven for ghosts. It was built by the river, on an abandoned territory, and, as you know, such places are often associated with mysterious stories. The first mention of the ghost was recorded in 1900.

Legend has it that once a nun from the Buresh monastery, located seven kilometers from this place, fell in love with a young monk from Borly. The lovers wanted to escape, the monastery coachman was going to help them in this, but they were seized by the monastery brethren. By order of the abbot, the coachman was beheaded, the monk was hanged, and his beloved was immured in a thick monastery wall, where he was left to die of starvation. Her ghost is often seen in the surrounding area, and Henry Price hopes to make contact with her.
Parish House - Essex, England.
The Smith family, who previously lived here, occasionally complained about broken windows, moved furniture and bells ringing. This scared them so much that in the end they had to pack up their things and move out. Even when the Reverend Lionel Foster moved here with his family, it didn't stop. For many years, seances were held in this building, in which the spirit of a young girl appeared, claiming that she was the ghost of that very nun.
