The Aberystwyth Promenade Couple - Ghosts and Hauntings on Waymarking.com

A ghostly couple, the story goes:-

On the 23rd of July 1971, Phil Bishop and his wife were staying in Aberystwyth, at a hotel on the North Promenade. Unable to sleep, his wife decided to survey the view of Cardigan Bay from the hotel room window. Upon looking down she saw a young woman leaning out to sea from the promenade railings.

Nothing odd so far, however; it was only when she noticed a young male running towards her that she realised there was something amiss. Calling her husband to the window, they both stared in amazement at the couple who were floating silently above the promenade by around a foot. The ghostly couple ran towards one another and embraced, whilst not being in contact with the ground below them.

The couple turned towards Constitution Hill and ran hand in hand up the promenade, descending down the steps and onto the beach. Continuing down the beach they ventured straight into the sea at high tide until they disappeared completely from view under the water, scared and confused the couple went to bed.

The following morning the couple talked with the hotel owner about what they had seen, and the owner was able to shed some light on the young couple. In the 1960’s a young couple had been tragically killed after becoming trapped by the high tide and rocks at the end of the promenade by the base of Constitution Hill. It is believed that this is the ghostly couple seen by Mr Bishop and his wife.
