Harry was well known and respected here in York. He sadly passed away in 2014 but he was a down to earth Yorkshire man. He left his job after this incident and eventually went to work at the Minster as one of their security team, known as the Minster Police.
Yes one of the most, if not, the most famous York ghost story of modern times. This, of course, is because Harry himself was evidently a genuinely, honest man who was simply recounting an amazing and mysterious experience which clearly happened.
Yeah! Agreed. I was there again in York this last weekend (26th - 27th Oct 19). People who work at the treasurers house are totally on board with it. Very atmospheric!!!
After years of rehashing all the ghost stories most know and enjoy, its fucking awesome to come across a tale I've never heard. This is an utterly fascinating story! Gonna keep searching, hoping to find more like this I've never heard of.
I met Harry back in the 1970's I was a make up artiste for ATV B,ham UK. Working on a program about the supernatural, he was a guest. An amazing story and quite frightening.
He was very genuine, just an ordinary working chap from Yorkshire. I believe every word he said he had nothing to gain at that time but ridicule about his experience. It changed his life and left him thinking "why me"?
Harry went on to be a Policeman for 30 years. Incidentally, the Romans were stationed where York Minster now stands, and in the Undercroft Museum there you can still see part of the Roman road amongst other Roman architecture and artifacts.
How amazing and most interesting. I'd love to actually be witness to one of these Roman soldier apparitions. It would be like stepping back in time. Great video.
@@williamcarter361 yes, when I visited, the guide said there were a number of sightings. Harry’s account has become the most famous because of Harry himself. He describes his experience vividly and his clarity, honesty and integrity adds to the veracity of his story.
@@m.asquino7403 I’m not sure. I thought the electrical charge from the drill may have sparked it off, but as it turns out, it wasn’t an electrical drill Harry was using. It was a big hand drill and hammer he used, which is why it took a couple of days to make the hole through the stone. So, could it t have been the incessant hammering into the stone? Perhaps Harry’s state of mind at the time left him open to witnessing an event that plays over and over again in the cellar. Maybe, the rest of us don’t see it because the mindset of most humans don’t leave them open to it. In other words, I have no idea what the trigger is. However, I believe Harry Martindale. I don’t believe he is lying. I think what he said happened, happened. Having visited the Treasurer’s House several times now, I can assure you that every one of the guides who works there also believe it. Not just the Roman ghosts, but the whole house is littered with spectral stories. There is a singular atmosphere that lingers and tingles in the house, especially that tiny cellar. Fascinating to look around, I certainly recommend a visit. Wouldn’t want to spend the night there on my own however.
It really is. I've been to the cellar in York where it happened. Everybody, absolutely everybody, including people who live and work there accept Harry's story as a given. Clearly, he is telling the truth. He is an honest man. It's nice to know there are multitudes of unseen and exciting things going on around us all the time.
I think this is an example of a time echo, not ghosts. A time echo doesn't interact with the current time, or do anything to interact with thr environment as it is.
Yes. Interesting to think about. I tend to think that his ‘vision’ was more of an ‘action replay’ rather than ghosts. So, a record of the passing soldiers was transcribed on the environment and with just right circumstances the play button was pushed. He saw more of a video recording that a spectral visitation.
@@Callisto74 Yes I agree and have known this for some time, several actions like this have been reported around the country, with figures walking through walls, from people that have witnessed these it’s always the same , they walk in One Direction never looking from side to side it’s not a ghost as such it’s a electrical force field that re-occurs from time to time if you try to communicate with any of this they wouldn’t even see you because it’s the same thing every time in my opinion.
My dad knew Harry around this time as my dad was an apprentice heating engineer but not at the same company. My dad always was 100% in knowing Harry was telling the truth.
Spirits can come right through walls or floors, it's like they can inhabit the ground itself, the rock. I used to doubt ghosts but now I know they exist.
I used to watch this show but completely forgot about it until now. The theme tune sounded so familiar but I couldn't work it out until I saw the title, very similar to 'strange but true'. I wonder what happened to Discovery civilisation.
MJ Music what was the name of this show? I used to watch it every Sunday afternoon snuggled by the fire...the opening theme would creep me out so much...loved it
Many people see and hear what we call ghosts or live simultaneously with another entity such as a guardian angel or other worldly being. This is much more common than people want to admit.
my father had an old belief that those who can be seen through apparitions and what not are called "arasaas" "a whisper of the past" where you can actually see ghostly apparition doing the same thing over and over again, it is an old belief that those who died left a vibrations through walls or to the ground and manifest through time, he also provided a connection of science to this because they believe that spirits of humans are some form of energy and in physics energy cannot be destroyed it can only transform from one form to another...
It's said that those ghosts were of soldiers belonging to the lost 9th Legion- Legio IX 'Hispana'. The Legion mysteriously disappeared from all historical records after 108 AD, all 5,500 men just... lost. It's said that they were annihilated in Brittania by the Britons during Hadrian's rule.
He might have seen a dramatic moment where they had fought or some traumatic moment like a funeral, similar to Gettysburg here in USA, many captured on video, seemingly stuck in a reoccurring moment.
Possibly. My impression was that it was merely a replay of a snippet of time, like on a VCR recording. How and why this phenomenon is activated is unknown to me. But I have been to the Treasurers House and to that tiny cellar several times. If you speak to the people that work there, the whole place is riddled with ghosts. Very interesting talking to the staff they are very open about it all.
I have been raised by the ghosts of my Roman soldier ancestors. They are very nice to me. They teach, guide, protect, console and motivate me. They let me become them in battle and times of danger.
Anybody whose name is *Calisto Monserratt* is going to get a look from me, because as a child I wanted to change my name to *Arturo Sandoval.* All kidding aside, thanks so much for posting this, *CM.* Regards, Kev
His description has a wealth of detail. All kinds of little details. And that may be a problem. Because if a person is confronted by something stunning, shocking, and terrifying, their minds are not likely to take in tiny details like that. Now, if you studied some history books, you might have those details at hand.
Actually, quite the opposite, in these situations, you can be so focussed on it, you notice everything tiny detail. However, you lose focus of everything else in the peripheral or in the wider environment. So, yes, it is quite natural for Harry to register every tiny detail but he register very little in the surrounding environment.
@@atorthefightingeagle9813 Yes I’ve been to the Treasurer’s House a few times and been in the cellar, and I’ve spoken to the people who work there. The Roman legions have been seen by quite a few people over the years.
Virtually impossible to be a full grown man from the North of England and not be aware of the Romans from a very early age. The idea that this man "knew nothing" of the Romans is so unlikely as to be completely untrue.
@@ToTaLePiCpEaNuT It isn't Roman history it is British history and he is from the North of England. He's described nothing you wouldn't find in one illustration in a childs history book.
@@terrortorn literally not true. You vastly over exaggerate the British public’s knowledge of Roman history. Most British people couldn’t tell you a single thing about say the British eighth army yet alone the uniforms of mercenary Roman soldiers thousands of years ago. The fact the uniforms of the soldiers he described weren’t red with rectangular shields is the most fascinating part, if he was lying he wouldn’t have risked using a lie but the typical stereotypical uniform and especially not using the uniform of mercenaries he couldn’t have possibly known were once in York
@@ToTaLePiCpEaNuT Rubbish it is in every primary school and secondary school, literally the truth. Especially the North with school trips to Vindolanda and the Wall being far from uncommon. There isn't a child of that mans age group that wouldn't have see an illustration of a Roman soldier including auxiliaries as a child or in umpteenth locations especially in York as an adult.
@@terrortorn we learnt absolutely nothing about Roman history in secondary school, and learnt only very condensed and often historically questionable information about Roman britain in primary school (and a trip to a place near York that does Viking, Saxons and Romans) We never once looked at uniforms in any detail and certainly not in any detail where we would remember auxiliary uniforms from a specific period years later… And knowing auxiliary uniforms is irrelevant to this story, historians weren’t aware till years later than the auxiliary units he described were ever briefly stationed in or near York.
It's because of our ancient devotion to Rome. Those ghosts are unable or unwilling to leave the last path and place where they were doing their duty. Soon i'll realize a video about some phantasmagoric evidence of ancient roman presence.
There is a part of the story that often gets overlooked. Harry says that he was so shocked that he fell off his steps. We know that after the incident he was taken to hospital and treated for concussion. So the question is what came first the Romans or the concussion?
My thoughts exactly! Assuming its not all made up I'd say he had a hallucination or a lucid dream/day dream, or maybe a period of semi-consciousnesss, perhaps brought about by some kind of epilepsy.
I went to a talk by Mr. Martindale as part of the York Roman Festival, and I recorded it on an audio tape, which I recently relistened to. He described the entire incident, including the build-up and aftermath, in great detail, including how he fell off the ladder and landed on his backside (ass/posterior), and how after the encounter with the ghosts he later went to a doctor in the Mount area of York to get an off-work letter. The doctor said in the letter that he should be given time off work on the basis of nervous shock caused by seeing apparitions (which the doctor seemed to be very open-minded about). Mr. Marindale didn't say anything, either in that account or in the other accounts of his which I've read in books, about a head injury. What makes you think that he was "taken to hospital and treated for concussion"?
I noticed that at 17 minutes and 6 seconds looks to her right when describing the Roman Ghosts and just seemed odd but I think I'm looking too much into it
This film recorded on iron oxide tape and he’s being seen now talking about ghosts all these years ago and later maybe stones record ghosts in in a way too he said they came out of the wall great ghost stories
Maybe they aren’t rare. Just because people don’t see them doesn’t mean they aren’t there. We cannot see X-rays or radio waves or microwaves which are around us all the time. It’s only under certain conditions, which we as humans have managed to control, that we can experience those waves. Maybe it’s the same with this phenomena. I have no doubt that Harry is relating exactly what he saw. Would those ghosts have passed through the wall regardless of Harry being there or not? It is very difficult to make any assumption because we know so little about such things. However, I have no doubt regarding his honesty.
@@genekelly8467 Fair enough, but it would be non sequitur to assume every case was fake. You can buy fake Nike shoes but you can also find genuine Nike shoes.

@@Callisto74 In my opinion he does,I grow up watching him in itv news,it’s something about the tone in his voice,thanks for the upload,this has to be the best ghost story I have ever come across 👍🏻
Sharma Wadey 😆. I’m joking with you. I do know who Trevor is. I’m British too and old enough to remember him. Trouble is, I’m old enough to remember the guy in the above video also. So with that kind of association, I don’t think he sounds anything like the McDonut. However, each to their own. It is a brilliant video. I actually went to the Treasurers House in York on the strength of this video. Harry’s story is a big deal there. They have a whole room dedicated to him and you can tour the cellar. All of the guides who work there believe it and they have a myriad of other ghost stories to tell if you ask them. Very atmospheric.
Fun, and I love this kind of show. But Martindale describes nothing he couldn't have got from a child's illustration of a Roman soldier, round shields and all. (Anyway, if they had round shields because they'd picked them up from locals, would they all have had the same thing? Nah. Error there!) And of course they were tired-looking and unshaven..! Any one unexpected detail would have made it so much more convincing.
Rockguitarnow. The problem with your theory is 1. there are no hot springs in the cellar. 2. The level of detail he describes were facts only known to scholars of Ancient Rome at the time. For example he described the swords as being on the right hand side. At the time Hollywood showed the swords being worn on the left and the soldiers wearing plate not leather. He describes the under tunic as being green, when most popular depictions had them as red. There are two many accurate but not well known details for it to have been an hallucination.
That man couldn't lie if you paid him. Rings true to me.
This is probably the only type of ghost I wouldn't mind seeing. Imagine seeing a soldier from 2000 years ago.

@@Callisto74 In my opinion he does,I grow up watching him in itv news,it’s something about the tone in his voice,thanks for the upload,this has to be the best ghost story I have ever come across 👍🏻
Sharma Wadey 😆. I’m joking with you. I do know who Trevor is. I’m British too and old enough to remember him. Trouble is, I’m old enough to remember the guy in the above video also. So with that kind of association, I don’t think he sounds anything like the McDonut. However, each to their own.
It is a brilliant video. I actually went to the Treasurers House in York on the strength of this video. Harry’s story is a big deal there. They have a whole room dedicated to him and you can tour the cellar. All of the guides who work there believe it and they have a myriad of other ghost stories to tell if you ask them. Very atmospheric.

@@Callisto74 this is brilliant 🤣😂👍🏻Thankyou for that!
Fun, and I love this kind of show. But Martindale describes nothing he couldn't have got from a child's illustration of a Roman soldier, round shields and all. (Anyway, if they had round shields because they'd picked them up from locals, would they all have had the same thing? Nah. Error there!) And of course they were tired-looking and unshaven..! Any one unexpected detail would have made it so much more convincing.
There is a gas which can form around underwater springs which is a hallucinogen. That's all it was.
Rockguitarnow. The problem with your theory is 1. there are no hot springs in the cellar. 2. The level of detail he describes were facts only known to scholars of Ancient Rome at the time. For example he described the swords as being on the right hand side. At the time Hollywood showed the swords being worn on the left and the soldiers wearing plate not leather. He describes the under tunic as being green, when most popular depictions had them as red. There are two many accurate but not well known details for it to have been an hallucination.
It would be hard for a hallucination to show how a Roman solider looked to a T without having never seen one before.
