The apparition of a former landlord tragically killed in a fire at the premises in the late 19th century, has been reported wandering his old inn. The fire started when he fell asleep holding a glass of cider and a cigar. Other phenomena that have been attributed to him include the movement of objects and “a sharp tweak of cold air blown on the neck”.

A spring that is located at the bottom of Chalice Hill is said to be blessed with miraculous powers, and some believe that this is because that it contains the actual blood of Christ. This is due to its famous iron-red water, which is never failing, and this is why it is known as the Blood Spring. Originally the little valley contained two streams - one red and one white. This gave rise to the legend of Joseph of Arimethea's Cruets, which contained the blood and water that gushed from Christ's wounds. Chalice Well is also said to have been another of the hiding places of the Holy Grail. It is regarded to have particular power over asthma.

Built in 1475, The George and Pilgrim is the oldest purpose-built pub in the South West of England. The building has a panelled stone frontage, mullion windows, and old oak beams, all of which add to a hotel with lots of atmosphere – and so do the ghosts. The apparition of a monk has been reported, as well as that of a more modern-dressed ghost dressed in blue and smiling broadly. However, the author Stuart does not state whether the latter spectre is a male or female!

St. Mary's Well is located in the Abbey Crypt, although the author Coxe gives no details regarding its properties.

The author Coxe states that the location has its legends, but had no space to include them! The main legend is that Joseph of Arimathea landed here, rested on his staff, at which point it sprouted branches and leaves.
