What is that? 33 00:01:36,849 --> 00:01:37,849 That looks like a ghost. 34 00:01:38,489 --> 00:01:40,408 It could be fog, moisture in the air. 35 00:01:40,409 --> 00:01:41,488 - Or a ghost. - Mm-hmm. 36 00:01:41,489 --> 00:01:44,089 It looks like a transparent person 37 00:01:44,649 --> 00:01:46,109 running across this path. 38 00:01:46,530 --> 00:01:47,530 Where was this taken? 39 00:01:47,849 --> 00:01:50,529 - In Sherwood Forest in England. - The Sherwood Forest? 40 00:01:50,530 --> 00:01:52,909 Yes, made famous by Robin Hood and his merry men. 41 00:01:53,310 --> 00:01:55,728 - Kevin Costner? - Eh, "Men in Tights." 42 00:01:55,729 --> 00:01:56,728 Animated fox. 43 00:01:56,729 --> 00:01:58,810 But any way you cut it, they're all Robin Hood. 44 00:01:59,330 --> 00:02:02,648 And look, this is an iconic character, the legend of this 45 00:02:02,649 --> 00:02:05,770 medieval outlaw who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. 46 00:02:06,050 --> 00:02:09,189 This whole period is filled with stories 47 00:02:09,190 --> 00:02:10,370 that still resonate today. 48 00:02:10,550 --> 00:02:13,128 But these aren't just stories, and they're not just movies. 49 00:02:13,530 --> 00:02:15,970 It's real history that people believe is inspiring 50 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:18,209 real paranormal activity today. 51 00:02:18,470 --> 00:02:20,828 You know, a few years ago, I had a chance to investigate 52 00:02:20,829 --> 00:02:22,769 the origins of the Robin Hood legend. 53 00:02:23,030 --> 00:02:25,708 And you're right, that this area of the country 54 00:02:25,709 --> 00:02:28,870 is just a hotbed of some pretty horrific history. 55 00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:31,588 And so if there are paranormal reports coming 56 00:02:31,589 --> 00:02:34,070 from Sherwood Forest, that doesn't surprise me at all. 57 00:02:34,189 --> 00:02:37,669 This region is the most storied in all of England. 58 00:02:40,650 --> 00:02:44,589 Of all of the great cities of Great Britain, arguably none 59 00:02:44,590 --> 00:02:46,830 have as dark a history as Nottingham. 60 00:02:47,410 --> 00:02:48,910 Situated in the heart of the nation, 61 00:02:49,270 --> 00:02:50,650 from the Middle Ages onward, 62 00:02:50,870 --> 00:02:53,530 whoever controls Nottingham controls England. 63 00:02:53,969 --> 00:02:58,150 Which is exactly why it becomes a powerful royal stronghold, 64 00:02:58,630 --> 00:03:00,529 fought over for centuries in some of 65 00:03:00,530 --> 00:03:02,270 the country's bloodiest battles. 66 00:03:03,330 --> 00:03:05,128 Among the deadliest of these conflicts 67 00:03:05,129 --> 00:03:08,290 is the Battle of Stoke Field in 1487, 68 00:03:08,610 --> 00:03:10,470 where King Henry VII's army 69 00:03:10,890 --> 00:03:12,550 wins the Wars of the Roses. 70 00:03:14,330 --> 00:03:16,490 The battle leaves thousands dead 71 00:03:16,750 --> 00:03:19,910 and the nearby River Trent stained red with blood. 72 00:03:20,750 --> 00:03:23,169 But Nottingham's medieval violence isn't limited 73 00:03:23,170 --> 00:03:24,650 to lords and their armies. 74 00:03:25,230 --> 00:03:27,910 Civilians also live under constant threat. 75 00:03:28,390 --> 00:03:30,569 The Sheriff of Nottingham polices the city 76 00:03:30,570 --> 00:03:32,110 with absolute authority, 77 00:03:32,830 --> 00:03:35,508 solely deciding who is classed a criminal 78 00:03:35,509 --> 00:03:38,049 before publicly hanging them in the streets 79 00:03:38,050 --> 00:03:39,530 as a hideous warning. 80 00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:42,649 And all this while the Sheriff often indulges 81 00:03:42,650 --> 00:03:44,510 in criminal behavior himself, 82 00:03:45,050 --> 00:03:46,930 corruptly profiting from his power. 83 00:03:48,129 --> 00:03:51,090 Beyond the city walls in nearby Sherwood Forest, 84 00:03:51,530 --> 00:03:55,069 commoners accused of poaching are mutilated or executed 85 00:03:55,070 --> 00:03:58,430 under the brutal edict known as forest law. 86 00:03:59,230 --> 00:04:02,110 But in response to this oppression and extortion, 87 00:04:02,570 --> 00:04:04,550 the legend of Robin Hood emerges, 88 00:04:04,890 --> 00:04:07,250 the ultimate symbol of defiance. 89 00:04:08,050 --> 00:04:10,650 Today we know him from many classic movies, 90 00:04:10,870 --> 00:04:14,710 but his story first surfaces in 13th century ballads, 91 00:04:14,889 --> 00:04:16,790 which tell of a dashing outlaw 92 00:04:16,934 --> 00:04:19,928 who robs from the rich and gives to the poor, 93 00:04:20,073 --> 00:04:22,130 before vanishing into Sherwood Forest, 94 00:04:22,310 --> 00:04:23,850 escaping the evil sheriff. 95 00:04:24,510 --> 00:04:27,909 Whether Robin Hood truly existed remains a subject of 96 00:04:27,910 --> 00:04:31,969 great debate, but there's no question the legend is inspired 97 00:04:31,970 --> 00:04:35,509 by the real-life cruelty of Nottingham and the rebels 98 00:04:35,510 --> 00:04:39,390 who fought back against it from the shadows of Sherwood Forest. 99 00:04:39,630 --> 00:04:43,369 But now, many believe all this bloodshed has left 100 00:04:43,370 --> 00:04:45,670 a terrifying paranormal legacy. 101 00:04:46,270 --> 00:04:49,409 Humanoid smoke figures, shrouded apparitions, 102 00:04:49,930 --> 00:04:52,408 strange lights, disembodied voices, 103 00:04:52,409 --> 00:04:56,169 and malevolent spirits are all regularly reported 104 00:04:56,170 --> 00:04:58,210 in and around Sherwood Forest. 105 00:04:59,490 --> 00:05:03,729 And within the city itself, deep inside secret tunnels 106 00:05:03,730 --> 00:05:06,050 once used as bandit hideouts, 107 00:05:06,529 --> 00:05:09,330 hostile poltergeists are said to hurl stones 108 00:05:09,650 --> 00:05:11,889 while shadowy shapes of outlaws 109 00:05:11,890 --> 00:05:13,390 appear from thin air. 110 00:05:14,569 --> 00:05:17,689 Nottingham's history lives on in the legend of Robin Hood, 111 00:05:17,990 --> 00:05:21,389 but does it also live on in something far more frightening? 112 00:05:22,770 --> 00:05:24,470 The restless dead. 113 00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:31,960 I feel like I know where your head's at. 114 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,799 - What are you thinking? - The kid in me is geeking out. 115 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:35,800 I wanna bring my bow and arrow. 116 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,560 Finally, you're excited for a ghost hunt. 117 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,520 I really am, but maybe that is the problem here. 118 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,759 This place is so full of legend, both medieval 119 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,839 and Hollywood, that maybe people are experiencing things 120 00:05:48,840 --> 00:05:50,960 there because they want to, because it'd be fun to. 121 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,419 I mean, who wouldn't want to see the ghost 122 00:05:53,420 --> 00:05:56,000 of a bow-wielding bandit in Sherwood Forest? 123 00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:57,300 Myself included. 124 00:05:57,540 --> 00:05:59,679 Alright, so Phil just wants to wear tights. 125 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:00,720 And what about you? 126 00:06:01,180 --> 00:06:02,980 Here's the thing, it's not just Robin Hood. 127 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,120 There's centuries of dark history in Nottingham. 128 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,239 Plus, there's even reports of pagan rituals 129 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,040 done in Sherwood Forest itself. 130 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,080 So we have to figure out what's going on here. 131 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,739 In fact, I've already reached out to several locals to see 132 00:06:13,740 --> 00:06:14,860 if they wanna share their experiences. 133 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,200 Alright, we got a plan. 134 00:06:16,380 --> 00:06:18,719 The two of you are gonna head to Nottingham and see if 135 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,079 you can figure out what's really going on here 136 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,379 and whether the Robin Hood legend plays some part in that. 137 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,800 - Sound good? - Sounds good. 138 00:06:25,940 --> 00:06:27,379 - Yep. - Alright, don't forget your bycocket. 139 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:28,600 - Whoa, whoa, whoa. - Whoa, what? 140 00:06:28,860 --> 00:06:30,680 It's the silly hat that Robin Hood wears. 141 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,960 - It's called a bycocket. - Really? 142 00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:33,749 - Yeah, Google it. - Weird. 143 00:06:33,750 --> 00:06:36,120 Just go, pack your tights, get out of here. 144 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,459 It's about a seven-hour flight from New York City 145 00:06:39,460 --> 00:06:40,460 to London, England. 146 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,879 From there, it's another two-and-a-half hours 147 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,220 by car to Nottingham, 148 00:06:44,540 --> 00:06:46,460 the so-called Queen of the Midlands. 149 00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:50,439 And around here, there's no better way to soak up centuries 150 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,160 of history than over a pint. 151 00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:59,060 Look at that, established year 1240. 152 00:06:59,339 --> 00:07:00,680 - History everywhere. - Yeah. 153 00:07:01,660 --> 00:07:04,439 Waiting for us inside the pub is a group of locals 154 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,539 who believe Nottingham's ancient history 155 00:07:06,540 --> 00:07:08,160 is all too alive. 156 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:09,480 Where should we start? 157 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,259 You can start right here in the Salutation Inn. 158 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,459 There are caves beneath the pub, and there is a lot of 159 00:07:16,460 --> 00:07:17,960 paranormal activity down there. 160 00:07:18,399 --> 00:07:19,980 What sort of activity are we talking about here? 161 00:07:20,519 --> 00:07:22,480 People complained about having clothes tugged, 162 00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:26,239 scratches, figures that walk into rooms 163 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:27,720 and then aren't there. 164 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,259 The most notorious spirit that we have is a highwayman that 165 00:07:32,260 --> 00:07:35,560 we feel is linked to a hidden well beneath the pub. 166 00:07:36,260 --> 00:07:38,639 There was a highwayman that supposedly was trying 167 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,720 to hide out, and he hid in the well, fell, and drowned. 168 00:07:44,300 --> 00:07:46,420 Various people have seen him down in the caves, 169 00:07:47,159 --> 00:07:49,520 approximately about six-foot tall, quite rugged, 170 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,840 unshaven, dark, long coat. 171 00:07:52,620 --> 00:07:54,519 It's almost like somebody's seen the same person 172 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,539 every single time. 173 00:07:55,540 --> 00:07:57,379 And multiple people have seen him for years? 174 00:07:57,779 --> 00:07:58,779 For years, yeah. 175 00:07:59,220 --> 00:08:01,500 Because in that well, there is believed to be his sword. 176 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,240 There's a sword in a well underneath here? 177 00:08:05,439 --> 00:08:07,019
