I believe borley rectory and tower of london are some of the best places for all the aspired spirit/ghost debunkers to prove their theory right . Because the place is so haunted, well known and scary, once it's proven as merely "subjective" delusion , all the ghost stories that we heard around the world would be rendered as merely a delusion.

The Borley Rectory Fire

Quote:
So, at Borley Priory, there have been numberless occurrences of "Poltergeist," the violent moving of heavy furniture, the flinging of bottles and stones, the ransacking of locked cupboards, the ringing of bells. Footsteps, at times, are heard in the empty passages. A sad wailing voce rises from the cellar-well (the treacherous well over which I fastened a heavy cover, only to find that cover flung off, the next day, and lying at the further side of the cellar).

Already, the fate of my two spaniels has been published and broadcast far and wide. How, first, wise old "Peter" (a five-year-old black Cocker) and afterwards "Joe" (six-month-old Cocker) showed their dread of the gloomy Courtyard; how, even during daylight, they could scarcely be persuaded to enter it, and how each in turn went mad with terror at something which they sensed beyond the threshold of the Courtyard, and died mad.

To end - I can only repeat that I am not superstitious, that I have neither belief (nor much interest) in "Ghosts." But I am obliged to believe the evidence of my own eyes and ears, and I should be foolish indeed to condemn the evidence of the hundred or more living witnesses who bear circumstantial evidence to the strange happenings such as those to which I have referred.
