The Ghosts of The Tower of London: Part 3 Waterloo Barracks & The White Tower
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Welcome to the Ghosts of The Tower of London Part 3!
This video focuses on the hauntings at The Waterloo Block (Barracks) and home to the Crown Jewels as well as an array of hauntings in The White Tower itself. Strange figures have been seen numerous times at the military barracks, and it seems all floors of The White Tower have some sort of paranormal activity!
Some of the stories focus on historic events and I hope you heel that my video covers the sad side of history in a respectful and honest way, without the need for sensationalising the past. Please stay tuned to the end to hear a small post script from me, Nicola.
As always, I hope you enjoy these tales from the Tower of London. Feel free to leave a comment. Thank you so much for your kind words and comments. They mean so much to me. Please feel free to Like and Subscribe to the channel.

Thank you as always Nicola, for another superb video on the Tower of London and its History and lives of many men and women who died within its walls.
Thank you so much Simon and I’m so pleased you enjoyed the video. Yes, some sad stories though 👻🙋♀️
@@ghostcasebook1266 Yes indeed many sad stories occurred inside those walls, always a plesure Nicola and thank you again. 👍😊
Hi, how are you? Im doing well. awesome live ghosts stories. I enjoyed it. I have another ghost story to tell you. I saw a ghost at the tower of london in 1994. I was looking around one of the towers when I saw a man dressed in 14th century clothing. He was standing there smiling at me. When no one was around I was about to say something. But he vanished before my eyes. I was shocked at first. I never saw him again. I'll never forget that day back in 1994. Have a great day 😊
I love the amount of research you do for these videos. I am learning a lot about our history. Looking forward to your next upload about the parachutist and the chair.
Another great video, thank you, you clearly put a lot of thought and consideration into the images you choose.
I love that you included some lesser known stories of the Tower. A couple really hit home, especially the Anne Askew story. Her story deserves to be better known. Excellent as always.
I agree and it’s not pretty, but the story is important. Thank you kindly Jeff 👻🙋♀️
R.I.P. Anne Askew...what a brave young lady!!
Yes 100% agree. It should never have happened 🙏🙏🙏
I could listen to you all day! You should contact Audible and be a reader- seriously. 😊
I've been saving this one for a cold lonely night! This is one. Heaters off and alone in bed. Had some red wine and turn my light off.. ( I have a night light though! 😊) let the stories begin..
I have read about the Welsh princes Llewelyn and his son Grifyd. As usual, really excellent video. One of my favorite authors, Sharon Kay Penman, writes brilliant books I love about various famous historical figures from the high Middle Ages.
Yes!! SKP my favorite author ❤
@@elle3833 Isn’t she fantastic?! I have learned so much!
your channel is so refreshing and thoroughly enjoyable, focusing on all my interests history, historical places and ghostly tales thank you
Miss Steak I love this so much, thank you kindly 🙋♀️👻
Excellent research! 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊 I’ve visited The Tower several times….its the most haunted place in London…dark….tortured…suffering…spirits are everywhere…in The Tower 🥺😔
Thank you so much my friend and I am so glad you enjoyed the video. It is an eerie place for sure! I hope you liked my little jazz interval on the Krays. I can imagine you getting your finest tobacco out to the grooves there Redcoat!
I want to meet (the ghost of) Anne Boleyn
Fabulous research - and you have a lovely voice which is very easy and actually relaxing to listen to. Well done
wow thank you so much Mary 🙋♀️👻
Horrible to think those poor folk may be still suffering centuries later.Hopefully its just a kind of echo from the past.Why are humans such a cruel,cruel species?They & ants r the only species waging war on their own kind.I admit though,I might've enjoyed torturing creatures like Rich & Cromwell(both of em!)& a few others.Evil scum.
Hi Susan and thank you so much. I know, there’s a very bleak side to the history of the Tower and mankind. We still see it today sadly 🙁

Thank You so much for your excellent videos....the professionalism and talent shows.
I especially enjoyed your video of Cardiff Castle in Wales.
You are absolute perfection in your work.
Goodness me Alfred, how kind! I’m so pleased that you’re enjoying the videos and thank you so much for taking the time to comment 👻🙋♀️
@@ghostcasebook1266 You're Welcome.
I have subscribed, and have been sharing your Channel with everyone I know.
There's something in them for everyone...whether the paranormal, travel, history, or architecture.
Thank You.
Hey Nicola. I started watching the video you posted after this one because I did not get a notification about this video on the tower of London part three. I am still subscribed to your channel with all videos to give me a notification that they've been posted, so I don't know what happened.
I came back to this video as you suggested to watch first. It is quite a treat to have two videos of yours to watch back to back but kind of weird that I didn't get a notification. 💀👻
Oh thank you I am so glad you’ve enjoyed both of the videos. Sorry about the lack of notifications. A bit odd maybe. I was quite nervous making the second video because it was quite a different style for me but I’m glad people have enjoyed it and taken away some history in the process. 👻🙋♀️ (hopefully)
My husband and I visited the Tower several years ago and while there I saw several spirits. One was of a woman wearing a long gray dress floating in the air in the banquet hall. Another one was of a man dressed in a long “gray or white “ robe. He did not appear to be very happy and seemed to be carrying something that I couldn’t identify. He had thinning dark hair and clear brown eyes. I believe I also experienced the shove you mentioned.
Bless you Nicola you sweet little dearie you ❤
Thank you for all your time and hard work you put into this. 🎉❤
Thank you so much Alex! I am glad you enjoyed the details 👻🙋♀️
@@ghostcasebook1266 You're just so talented, Nicola. You should be running your own media company so that you could have people helping you put out lots of content. With a creative mind like yours i know you're just brimming with ideas.
And we love you all the way over here across the pond in the states ☺️♥️
The story about Anne Askews torture was chilling indeed… loved every single case stories !!
I know. It's chilling and also terribly sad 😔 I am so pleased you enjoyed the different stories 👻
Humans are terrible 😞
@@ThanksChrissee the end of The Monster Club (1980)
Hi I love your channel. I went to the Tower once a long time ago in 2000. Well I took a lot of pictures, tons actually because I’m a huge history nerd. Well outside in the courtyard all of my pics has this bizarre swirling smudged area in the sky! I’m convinced it was some paranormal activity. I’ve never seen this or had this before or since. 👻👻👻 🏰
Thank you so much TK Arabella, that’s very interesting. Funny how on one visit, everything’s fine and then on another weird things occur! Especially with things like cameras, batteries, phones etc. 🤔
A superb and gruesome tale you've presented for us again.
Kudos to you.👏💯
I really appreciate your kind words, thank you! 👻🙋♀️
I thoroughly enjoyed this! Thank you, Nicola, brilliant upload as always 👍🏻
Discovered your ghost cases by pure chance and have to say how much I am enjoying them. As someone who has seen, heard and felt ghosts over the years in various properties and locations I am of course a firm believer as I suspect you are also. You have an excellent speaking voice have you ever been an actress? Keep up the great work
Goodness me Dennis Diamond, I thank you for your kind words. I’m so pleased you are enjoying the channel and the stories. I have absolutely no experience of acting, voice work or media production whatsoever. I’m flattered if you think I have an excellent speaking voice. In the first instance, I was going to use an A.I voice thing where you submit the text and they tell the stories. I was dreadfully nervous. Eventually I just thought ‘go for it and if it all goes wrong, you’ve lost nothing’ so that’s what I did. Thank you ever so much for such a kind compliment; It’s really appreciated 👻🙋♀️🙏
@@ghostcasebook1266 Gotta say I agree with Dennis.
The fact you have no formal training makes your talent even more extraordinary. The broadcasting profession is certainly the poorer for your absence; yes Nicola you really are that good.
Take care
Neil
Saved it for Saturday night as always Nicola....and you never disappoint 😃. A brilliant video as usual 👏. The Tower of London is indeed an amazing place which myself and Mrs Dee have had the privilege of visiting. Thank you so much for these fascinating and informative videos. I'm so happy to see that you're now well over 10k subscribers and deservedly so...I have no doubt that you will keep to develop your channel and I can't wait to see more of your outstanding work 👏 😊. Every good wish from your Irish friends 🇮🇪.
Well done once again.
Thank you so much Jay! 👻🙋♀️
This is the first time I am hearing this story about Ricard III. I knew Tyrell was in charge of the Tower the night the princes were killed but I had never read or heard about the keys changing hands. May I ask where you found that information?
let me check and I’ll be right back C Casey!
@@ghostcasebook1266 It must be getting Kate already in England! No hurry you know. I was surprised to hear this version of events; a number of us online viewers from another channel had decided it was the Dowager Margaret Beaufort behind the princes’ demise. In order to clear the way for her son Henry VII.
Meant to say late in England!
Hi C Casey, this is from More’s text
vous matter. In whiche he founde him nothing strange. Wherfore on the morrow he sente him to Brakenbury with a letter, by which he was commaunded to deliver sir James all the kayes of the Tower for one nyght, to the ende he might there accomplish the kinges pleasure, in such thing as he had geuen him commaundement. After which letter delivered and the kayes received, sir James appointed the night nexte ensuing to destroy them, devysing before and preparing the meanes.

Love the video and content, such a soothing gentle voice.
Thank you kindly Andy! 👻🙏
Beautifully done.
I ❤ THIS CHANNEL!!!!!!!
Hi! I'm watching in reverse, why, I honestly don't know. Anyway, Anne Askew suffered torture before being burned at the stake. What bravery‼️
Diane I’m glad you found the video! Did you find it from the follow up video? 👻🙋♀️
King Henry VIII was a Protestant though.
Another GREAT video, well done Nicola x
Thank you very much Nicola for the great and interesting stories you read for us ! Annie 🇬🇧❤
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much Annie 👻🙋♀️
I just couldn't live in a place where people are being tortured. What sick people back then.
Horrific times. Thank you. I live in Sudbury and saw the head of Simon of Sudbury on a school trip.
Goodness that much have been a bit traumatic if you were young! But interesting all the same! 👻🙋♀️
@@ghostcasebook1266 It was a bit disturbing
Thank you for this amazing video. Your narration certainly makes it amazing!!
Joan thank you so much as always 👻🙋♀️🙏 You’re very kind 🫖
Thank you for doing this, most interesting, hope you are well, love Kim x
I don't believe the skeletons found were those of the two princes as they were buried 11ft deep.
❤❤❤❤ Brilliantly done. Thank you so much for this. Great narration and some lovely visuals too. I had a very busy weekend so I’m watching on my lunch break today (Mon) There is no cake, no soft seating but at least I have a brew. This means that I’m having a great Monday thanks to you ❤
Thank you so much Walkingdad 69! I’m glad you have a cuppa even if sans cake! The follow up video was released last night too so maybe grab a cake on the way home and have a look at the next instalment. Have a great day 🙏👻🙋♀️
Excellent video I love your series! It's more historical than ghost based but I still love it.
Another great video...awesome start to the weekend.👍👍
Great work! Thank you! 💗
It's somehow comforting to know that SOMEBODY escaped that place. Guess I'm too much of a Yank.
Ha ha I love that! There were a few escapes over the centuries.👻
I have to know. How do the soldiers with the big fur hats see?
Hiya Nicola, what a lovely speaker you are, my 6xtimes (ish) Grandmother was Mary Queen of scots, I've just found your channel, and I'm going to watch all your vlogs in the next couple of weeks, I like the music being played, I really feel for Anne Boleyn, but the dangers were always there, in Henry V111 court, I watch the UA-cam channels Her Remarkable History and The Fortress, keep up the good content, Paul Guise (pronounced Guys) in Whitehaven, Cumberland, England
Hi Paul and thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I’m so pleased you’ve found the channel and I hope you enjoy the videos. I started posting videos in the autumn of 2022 so it’s still relatively new but I’m glad you like the stories and the music together. Stay in touch my friend and best wishes to you in Whitehaven 👻🙋♀️🙏
@@ghostcasebook1266 No Bother Nicola, I'm watching the 10 to 15 minute vlogs at the moment,but I'll be going onto the 30 minute vlogs once I've watched the 10 to 15 minute ones
Really informative and enjoyable episode. Do like your mix of history and ghost stories. Two of my favourite tings 😊 Thanks 👻
Thank you so much Linda, I love that! 👻🙋♀️
Wonderful, thank you and can't wait for the next release 😀
My grandma met face to face with the Kray twins at a club, Ronnie Scott’s club at around 60s
Goodness that sounds a bit scary! 👻🙏
Thanks. Great video. Keep up the good work.
I have been to the Tower of London twice. The first time, nothing strange happened. On the second of trip, my husband and I were on a walkway (between turrets). He was some distance ahead of me. I felt an atmosphere that was oppressive, malign, and quite frankly-scared the heck out of me. I ran to catch up with my husband. Wouldn't care to repeat the experience.
Oh wow! It is an eerie place for sure. Weird things happen there to visitors and those on patrol there too! 👻🙏🙋♀️
Great stuff.Even if you don't believe in the paranormal,the history is fascinating. Keep up the good work!
Thank you kindly Sir! 👻🙋♀️
I love the stories that are modern enough to have radios etc because these are modern men not easily worried. My fav' is in 1968 an RAF guard was so sure he saw an intruder he opened fire, so 1968-that's a modern man this an FN assault rifle, not some superstitous yokel.
Thank you so much. I always find the modern stories interesting too. I also think how many people trained in the forces see things when on duty and possibly don’t report it. There are more stories from the Tower in relation to this for sure!
Nobody knows exactly what happened to Edward V and his younger brother. Yes they were taken to the tower by order of the King, however what their fate was remains unknown. (I don't mean to imply that they didn't die in the tower, they probably did but the details are unknown)
Yes, I agree. I covered the princes in the tower a bit more in part 1:

Brilliant video as always. Well researched, well narrated and well produced. Fantastic. X
Thank you ever so much. This means a great deal to me 🙏
Another fantastic video 😊. Look forward to the next one on Jakob 😊
Thank you so much Jakob! 👻🙋♀️
Absolutely superb; great work.
Thank you

I’m glad you enjoyed the video Neil, so grateful as ever 👻🙋♀️
@@ghostcasebook1266 Always luv your content Nicola. Your not one of my top 5 fave channels for nothing.
You take care now. 🥂👍🙏
Thanks!
Robin you’re so kind. This means so much and really helps me develop new content. With best wishes always, Nicola
@@ghostcasebook1266 yes, and not just happening to your channel! No worries, I will find you! Your video compliments a documentary done by Dr Lucy Worsley. You tell stories I have never heard. I am going to watch it again along with your new one!!
Love your channel its so informative I have been interested in the paranormal for years
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and lots more to come 👻🙋♀️
I am seriously freaked out! I watched Part 3 Tower of London last night, pulled into my Ancestry account online tonight and immediately came up with a name from last night's show! I called my adult daughter in central California and told her what happened! Even my stoic and unbelieving daughter was surprised! She told me to be sure to get my Genealogy correct for this ancestries! Indeed I will. Thank you for your ever interesting content. My great grandma passed down her gift of Second Sight to me and, for some reason, my now 40 year old son has inherited it as well. My DNA shows I am almost 70% descended from Scottish, Irish, Welsh and British so your stories play right into my areas of interest!
Thank you so much for your comment! This is very interesting. The Tower is a very eerie place and I love it to bit but I can’t imagine what it must have been like there in the past. I’m glad you are enjoying the videos and I hope you’re not too freaked out! 👻🙋♀️😳
Thanks!
Danielle you are very kind. I appreciate your generosity so much and thank you so much 👻🙋♀️🤔
Interesting stories! The Tower Of London sure sounds like a spooky place.
Although Thomas More was a child when Richard III was killed, he and his father, a judge of the King's Bench, would have known many contemporaries of Richard's, who knew him and were familiar with the inner workings of the king and the situation. More was also, unbeknownst to him at the time, corroborated by other sources (Vergil, Croyland, Mancini). Since he was writing for himself and not for an audience, it wasn't "Tudor propaganda". His writing is compelling with eye witness details. There is no reason to doubt his version.
Horrible stores of how horrible those in power can be. This is a fantastic channel and appreciate this women's scholarship
Wow thank you ever so much; you’re very kind 👻🙋♀️
I guess you could say favorite, maybe- the stories I always find interesting in this are the ones of Ann Bolelyn, and Ann Askew, and the stories of the young princes.
I always thought that Richard the third was a noble person until I found this out about his treatment of his nephews. He was a bast. (I won't write the rest.)
The tower must have been just the most barbaric place. Those poor souls. I wish them rest.
Thanks for this great video and all your research. Look forward to your next as always 😱🙂.
I didn't get a notification for this video! Arg! GREAT job, Nicola!
Thank you so much Robin. Do you mean as a subscriber you didn’t get a notification? Seems to be happening A LOT 🤔
At 29:16 they have a very lovely monument where many people where executed. In 1975 when I was about 25 the spot was marked only by a wooden chopping block. It was a clear message that has no fancy brick and glass or words of consolation. .
Yay for a new video and a bonus video coming soon 👻
Yes indeed and I hope you’ll enjoy it too 👻🙋♀️
Thomas More was also in the pay of the Tudors, who wanted Richard III vilified.
This question /comment is a bit of an extension to the peasants revolt. The Pole tax strikes me as incredibly unfair. One shilling to people who are well off is an entirely different tax to someone with a family who just scrape by. How any thinking person could inflict such needless harm on the Poor is beyond defence. But even as I write I realise the people who dictated this tax felt no compulsion to care for the poor. These same would be the tortureers and executioners of all classes of society simply because they believed differently. So much for the good old days such barbarity carried out in the auspecies of the greater good. 😮
Thank you so much for that excellent video!!😊👍😊
Just watched this absolutely brilliant, love the stories, so cruel they were, look forward to the next ones , so interesting thankyou
Absolutely brilliant thank you so much I really enjoyed it x
As always, your photos and illustrations are perfect to the task and carry rich imaginings of each story.
Charming place. I've visited it.😅
Brilliant!! 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers! 👻🙏🙋♀️
Again another great video. Thank you.
I still feel bad about that chair. Oh well.
Ernest! What are you like? Glad you enjoyed the video though 🙋♀️🙏
@@ghostcasebook1266 Fat and ugly. No wait.
Ugly and fat. Yes that's it.
Ugly and fat. And I am 115 year's old. 116? lol
@@ghostcasebook1266 You threw me off with your question. Please don't take part of my comments seriously. I was just being silly and just maybe I could put a smile on your face. I enjoy your videos. You are very rare and intellectual. Keep up the excellent work. History would not be fun if a haunting was not involved.
Beautiful storytelling, Nicola.
Thank you so much Julie 👻🙋♀️
Not anywhere I ever want to visit. Not even to see the crown jewels.
I only just discovered your channel.. the story's are very spooky and interesting. and you have a beautiful beautiful voice ❤☝🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much Sean and welcome 👻
Love your videos thank you for taking the time to make them for us
Hello!
I am a historical/halloween lover from Sweden.
My dream is to open a museum with historical gowns/halloween costumes
and props but my father says that Sweden is too small for that kind of project.
Alexandra I absolutely love this. I have only been to Sweden once many years ago but I think niche can be a good thing! Could you consider doing a channel on that topic for starters? I’m sure there would be people interested in it. I’d be interested for sure. Sounds brilliant 👻🙋♀️🙏
Awesome
thank you for the ghost stories and a history lesson 👻🤓
Yet another fabulous feast of fascinating facts!! Thank you for all the time you put into these accounts! It's very much appreciated!
Thank you so much Phoenix! 👻🙋♀️🙏
Hadn't seen this one. Good stuff.
I have a picture of my grandfather with the kray twins when he was their guard in the Tower of London. He lived there and on his wedding certificate it is listed as his address.
Oh wow that’s fantastic! I love this 👻🙋♀️
Good video.
Thank you so much, Ricky ! 🙋♀️👻
Love your ghost stories of the Tower of London. I've been there in June of 2015. When I was at the White Tower hearing on what happened to the two princes Edward V and his younger brother Richard of Shrewsbury, Duke of York; made me very sad. I wonder if you had any experiences with both of them at the White tower when you went there? It would be interesting to know what happened to them from a EVP? I don't remember seeing any spirits at the time during my visit.
Thank you ever so much and you are very kind. I did have a wierd experience at the Tower a number of years ago. There’s a video that covers it here but whether it involves the princes or anyone else, there, I don’t know 🙋♀️👻🙏
ua-cam.com/video/XkqAfCwbz04/v-deo.htmlsi=INeC9V2a0H6q4qAh
You're welcome Nicola. I enjoy listening to all your ghost stories! I did watch the video and it might be one of the princes who brushed up against you or someone else. @@ghostcasebook1266 👻😁
Wonderful video as always. Not been to the tower for forty years or so so really must pay it another visit.
Thank you Jason, you must return. I hope you might tour it with the ghost stories in mind too! 👻
Great recounting of tales as per usual.Love the soundtrack too.
