Hampton Court Ghost Caught on Tape: Evidence of a Ghost or a Hoax?

The 16th century palace known as Hampton Court, once home to King Henry VIII, was built in 1525 and has long been a hotspot for claims of paranormal activity. In 2003, one of those claims was allegedly verified by closed-circuit security camera footage that shows a cloaked and hooded figure reaching out to slam shut a set of doors after they mysteriously open by themselves. The footage was discovered when security guards reviewed the tape after a fire alarm sounded near an exhibition hall with no apparent cause.

See the VIDEO of the alleged Hampton Court Ghost.

At the same time one day before the Hampton Court ghost appeared to slam shut a set of heavy doors in security camera footage, the same camera caught the same set of doors opening on their own. When the figure appeared the following day, word quickly spread that a ghost had been caught on video at Hampton Court.
Security guard James Faukes said to BBC News that “It was incredibly spooky because the face just didn’t look human”. According to BBC News, an Australian visitor had written in a guest book earlier that day that she’d seen a ghost in that same area.

The fire alarm near the exhibition hall had gone off two previous times without an apparent cause. The alleged apparition only appeared in the doorway during the third fire alarm incident.
