The Girl Who Lived In The Church Walls In 1840, Sir Robert Warboy, a man who didn't believe in ghosts, locked himself in a room at 50 Berkeley Square and was found dead three hours later, despite being armed. The official inquest ruled "massive heart failure due to unknown circumstances," but what explains the bullet hole in the wall, the torn bell-pull cord, and his rigid body gripping it? In this episode, we explore the chilling history of 50 Berkeley Square, a London townhouse with a room that has remained unoccupied for nearly two centuries due to a series of unexplained phenomena. We delve into the events of that fateful night and the terrifying legacy that continues to haunt this infamous location.
