All Saints Church - Corn Street - Bristol One of the most famous hauntings at the church concerns a phantom monk, who was reported dozens of times leading up to his final appearance on Christmas Day 1948. The ghostly figure would be seen strolling purposefully throughout the church, as well as the grounds outside. It is believed that he was guarding something, possibly treasure which he buried at the church during his time on Earth. Just why the monk stopped appearing at All Saints church in unknown. It is, of course, likely that he is still present at the building and is just waiting to be seen again. Strange events have also been reported in the house which sits on the church grounds, although these occurrences seem to be much more sinister than a monk watching over his former possessions. In 1840, the Jones family, who occupied the All Saints church house, began to report unexplainable events such as strange noises and an overwhelming sense of dread and fear. Mr. Jones, who was the man of the house in an extremely conservative period, grew increasingly fearful of an unseen entity and was ultimately left shaking on the floor while tears poured from his eyes. His wife, for her part, reported experiencing something not unlike demonic possession, as she would frequently have to fight the urge to throw herself from an upstairs window.
