The Bwgan y Parciau (translates as the Parciau Ghost) used to haunt the area of Llanallgo. It was believed to be the ghost of Sir John Bodvel, a 17th century gentleman. Holland describes an encounter with this ghost, whereby the witness describes him appearing riding a white horse. However, she noticed that the rider had cloven hoofs!
Further investigation revealed that it could be the ghost of a pirate named John Wyn ap Hugh of Bodvel, near Pwllheli. It is believed he may have hidden treasure in the vicinity.

Sources have reported that there are strange noises in the night air around the village of Llanallgo. They have been described as “howlings” and seem to move from place to place, as if there was more than one source “responding to each other”.
Normal nocturnal nightlife, or something else…?
