Tom Corbett

IN BATH, Somerset

In the early 1960's Ghost hunter and Clairvoyant Tom Corbett, who is featured in a book, The Stately Ghosts of England by Diana Norman visited the house, he was friends with the Marquis at the time and was taken up to the many passages at the top of the house and namely the Green Lady's Walk,

As he walked up one of the passageways he appeared to make contact with a spirit, he said 'No' several times, he made his way to another passage and stopped and announced that 'there was something there and something dreadful happened there'

'This is your corridor, not the other one'

It turns out that he was correct, they had shown him the wrong corridor to test his psychic powers and he had got it right..

He then went around the house picking out the various ghosts and the history books they had been identified in.

Tom Corbett was then ill for a week after he had visited Longleat..
