The Wheatsheaf
The Wheatsheaf, a historic pub in Walsall, England, dates back to the 18th century and has long been associated with paranormal activity. Located on Birmingham Road, the building has served as a coaching inn and public house for generations. Over the years, staff and patrons have reported numerous ghostly encounters within its walls.
One of the most frequently sighted spirits is that of a young girl in Victorian-era clothing. She has been seen wandering the upper floors and staircase, often appearing to be lost or searching for something. Witnesses describe her as having long, dark hair and a pale complexion.
The pub’s cellar is another hotspot for supernatural occurrences. Staff members have reported feeling an unseen presence watching them while working in the basement. Some have experienced sudden temperature drops and heard unexplained footsteps echoing through the space when no one else was present.
A male entity, believed to be a former landlord, has been spotted in the bar area. Dressed in early 20th-century attire, he is said to appear briefly before vanishing into thin air. Patrons have also reported glasses moving on their own and being knocked off tables by invisible forces.
In the 1990s, a team of paranormal investigators conducted an overnight study at The Wheatsheaf. During their investigation, they recorded multiple EVPs (Electronic Voice Phenomena) and captured unexplained orbs in photographs. The pub’s reputation as a haunted location has drawn ghost hunters and curious visitors from across the region, eager to experience its spectral residents firsthand.
