Nestled in the countryside of Kent, England is a quaint little village known as Pluckley. Dating back centuries, the town is a place some never want to leave – earning it the reputation of “The Most Haunted Village in England”. At least 12 different ghosts have been spotted around town regularly – and in the 1950s one author began uncovering the ghosts’ true identities.
