THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Avon Fire and Rescue Headquarters at Temple Back in Bristol (serving the Somerset region) is famous in local ghost lore for being built directly over a historic 12th-century Knights Templar temple site. Its primary hauntings include:The Ghostly Knight: When the station first opened in the 1970s, a fire controller reportedly witnessed a full-bodied apparition of a medieval knight descending the main lobby stairs.Corridor Apparitions: Multiple station workers and evening staff have documented seeing unexplained, shadowy figures and translucent entities moving around the modern building late at night.Overnight Investigations: The building's intense spiritual reputation led Paranormal Site Investigators (PSI) to conduct full, overnight environmental sweeps to track the site's ongoing supernatural activity.
A ghost of a templar has been seen here. According to legend, he might have been involved with occult activity.
