On a winter's day in the early 1990s, a British Televoms worker finished up installing a new phone system at St Catherine's Lighthouse and was left to lock up by the keeper. At his van, struck by the dramatic sight of the Lighthouse at dusk, he grabbed his camera and took two shots. The first showed the Lighthouse empty and imposing. The second, taken only seconds later, shows the clear figure of a man standing in the tower... This ghost glows in the dark and will recharge indefinitely if well cared for. Best charged with sunlight for an intense glow. Our large ghost figurines measure approximately 8 cm tall and are hand-made with care on the Isle of Wight, thought to be the most haunted island in the world. Each ghost is completely unique and features an Isle of Wight shaped base. Matt finish. Please note that by virtue of the hand-making and finishing process, minor imperfections and slight colour variations may be present. These are normal and add to the character of each spirit, with each one being a true one-of-a-kind. Show more
