Beckenham Ghost - Ghosts In Beckenham

"While staying at a relatives as a teenager in Queens Rd Beckenham I woke in the middle of the night. I walked from the upstairs bedroom and turned left towards the toilet. At this point I saw a quick flash of a man on fire running directly at me, it lasted no more than 2 or 3 seconds but I was petrified to the point I woke the whole house up. I told an aunt about this incident recently and she told me that as a child she used to see an old lady standing in the corner of her bedroom just looking at her, her room which was directly next to the bathroom was the flaming man had come from.

I checked with elderly neighbours and it appears that the garages to the rear of the property (next to Balgowen school) used as lockups, they were build on the site of bomb damaged houses. In fact the bathroom and the rear bedroom had been damaged at the same time in the bombing and there were fatalities.

Still freaks me out!"
