Princess Diana ancestor Lady Winchcombe is haunting Kate Middleton family's £4.7 million home

A ghost related to Princess Diana is haunting the Duchess of Cambridge’s parents, the Sunday People has revealed.

At midnight, the spectre of Lady Frances Winchombe is said to ride with four headless coachmen past Michael and Carole Middletons’ new home, a £4.7 million manor, in Bucklebury, Berks.

The restless banshee, who died of a broken heart after her husband cheated on her, ended her life in the area.

Councillor Wynne Frankum said: “The story of Lady Winchcombe is well known around here. The ghost is a chariot drawn by six black horses driven by headless postillions and a lady clad in white.”

Michael, 63, and Carole, 57, invited expectant parents William, 30, and Kate, 31, to the Grade II listed Georgian house over the Christmas holidays.

And residents report strange noises coming from Lady Winchcombe’s coach, said to rattle along the lane there.

Historian Martin J Wayland has collected several sightings and reports for his book Kate Middleton Country.

He said: “Lady Winchcombe is a descendent of the Spencer and Churchill families and the British Royal Family, she is related to the Stuarts as well as a distant relation to Lady Diana Spencer.

“I can trace her haunting and first recorded sighting back to 1898.”

Lady Frances was married to Queen Anne’s Secretary of State Henry St John for 18 stormy years.

In 1715 he ran off with £13,000 from the estate to live with his mistress, the Marquise de Villette, in her French chateau at Marcilly.

Martin said: “She died of a broken heart and shock after starving herself in October 1718, at 37.

“She wasn’t buried until the December – which is why we think that she could never rest in peace.” - Mirror

'House of doom' sees nine die in 15 years

Built just 25 years ago in the Gatow district of Spandau, the large house has been home to a brothel owner who ended up decapitated, the suicide pact of a British journalist and his lover, and the murder-suicide of an entire family.

The most recent was scientist Lorin W., who earlier this month bumped his car into the vehicle in front at the traffic lights. When the driver rang the police, the Siemens employee tore off onto the motorway, where he lost control at a speed of 200kph and died in the crash.

But Lorin W. was not the first to meet his maker in a nasty accident. A brothel owner who was renting the top floor apartment was decapitated while flying down the nearby Autobahn on his motorbike in 2003.

Summer 2012 and Berlin police were called to the building's maisonette apartment, where they found the bodies of 69-year-old Kristian B., his wife Kathrin, 28, and their two sons aged six and three.

The debt-riddled asset consultant had suffocated them all before killing himself with a plastic bag. He had previously given up his infant daughter into a baby hatch.

Officers also found the bodies of British journalist John D. and his partner Jörg K, the pair both had advanced stage AIDS and decided to commit suicide together.

Another suicide rocked the house in 2000, when a Dutch man taped up all of his doors and windows, lit a barbecue and died shortly after of carbon monoxide poisoning. - The Local

Security Guard Driven Insane By Female Ghost

January 25, 2013 [PDN]; at 11 p.m., a report of a madman shattering a temple mirror in the Abbot’s parsonage was received by Pol. Capt. Vitsanu Chaisuwan, Deputy Inspector, Pattaya police station.

The incident occurred at the Phosamphan temple, located on the side of Pattaya-Na Kleu road, Moo 5 Tambon Na Kleu, Amphur Banglamung.

At the scene, police found the monks and novice monks restraining the trouble maker, identified as Mr. Phonsiri Janthamas, age 45. He had been cut by the damaged mirror on his left hand, which was bleeding heavily.

Mr. Phonsiri was trembling uncontrollably and appeared to be deathly afraid of something. He told police that he could see the ghost standing beside the wall of temple. The officers tried to calm him down, but were unable to calm his intense fear that made him insane. So the police restrained him and brought him to the police station to calm his emotion.

Officers inspecting the parsonage of the abbot discovered that one of the sliding mirror doors to the entrance had been hit until it was broken. Police questioned the Abbot, who said he had been sleeping in the parsonage, when he heard an intruder attacking the mirrored door until it shattered.

The sound of the violence scared the Abbot so much, he thought a robber had come to rob or beat him. So the Abbot didn’t dare to venture out of the parsonage, and waited for the police to arrive.

Police then questioned the suspect’s co-worker, identified as Mr. Wutthiphong Phangdaboot, age 26. He told the police that Mr. Phongsiri is a security guard at a department store in north Pattaya.

After the two men had finished their work shift that night, Mr. Phongsiri asked Mr. Wutthiphong to bring him to this temple to see the monk, because he was being haunted by a woman ghost all the time. But after they arrived at the temple, Mr. Phongsiri’s mind suddenly snapped, and he ran to attack the mirrored doors of the Abbot’s parsonage. - Pattaya Daily News
