Could this be evidence of ghosts in a Shropshire castle?
Video journalist James Shaw spent an evening at Whittington Castle, near Oswestry, with ghosthunting group Dead Haunted Nights, run by Phil Whyman, from Living TV’s Most Haunted.
And he found evidence that ghosts may – or may not – exist.
One of the most compelling pieces of footage is a light that travels across a landing and appears to disappear into a wall.
The shape appears to change as it moves across the screen and was only discovered when the tape was being reviewed.
The group also heard stone-throwing noises as it attempted to contact spirits near an old dungeon.
So could our video reveal more about the existence of ghosts or has the light really been playing tricks?
Watch our video and find out.

Did anyone else see the large white oval outline shape on the left hand side of the screen that appeared and then disappeared (1:22-1:28)?
I think it might be the ghost of an egg.

I was in the group that James was with and you missed the most fascinating outcome on the last vigil in the Court Room. We went back to the room after we had finished when we had free time to complete our seance.
I can only say James, you really did miss the best bits.
The Dead Haunted team are aware of what went on if you want to speak to them… I would like to know if they got anything on tape..?
