Bryneglwys, Denbighshire, Wales

St. Tysilio's Church

Ffrith Farm

This farm was troubled in the 19th century by a bwgan (Welsh word for an invisible and troublesome ghost) who caused mayhem in the kitchens and dairy. The same clergyman mentioned in the previous entry eventually tricked him into a barn.

 

Whilst in the barn the spirit showed itself as a shape-shifter, turning itself into various different forms, before the clergyman convinced the spirit to change into a fly. The spirit obliged, at which point the cunning clergyman trapped the fly inside a tobacco box!

Ty Mawr Farm

This farmhouse was once the site of a haunting that required the expertise of a clergyman to rid the building of its presence. Such was the drama of the story that it has passed into local legend.
