A couple got a shock when they spotted a demonic face peering at them from a photo taken while exploring a haunted building in Nottinghamshire. A couple claim they caught what could be the ‘demonic’ face of a monk staring at them in the cellar of a former slaughterhouse – in the same spot he was burned alive 500 years ago. Tania Copeman, 41, was exploring the abandoned building dubbed ‘The Village in Mansfield, Notts, when the haunting happened.........

It was 11.15 pm when I was driving home after a long days fishing at the lake there, I fished for most of the day and packed up when it was getting dusk, I was driving along the lane and as I passed Loscar Wood, standing there next to the gate was something I coudn’t make out at first, then I realised what I was seeing, It was a huge hair covered figure of some kind? It was just huge, he was standing on two legs, I could make out the light between them. It was upright and on seeing It I slammed on the brakes and went as quick as I could, I reversed backwards.........

It was a tall man-like figure and “he” was sort of crouching forward in a strange position. As we passed “him” in the car “It” turned and looked straight at us. In my own words I would describe “It” as around six feet eight inches tall with legs thicker than two of mine, “It” was very strong looking and had a darkish, blacky [sic]-brown coat. I just could not explain “It” to you clearly at all and I still get goosebumps thinking of it."
