Brit pub's ghostly cowboy caught on video

London, Feb 27 (ANI): The ghostly figure of a cowboy, who walks in front of a roaring fire in a pub in Britain, has been captured on video.

What can be seen of the ghost are a Stetson style hat and a waistcoat, and locals believe that paranormal forces are responsible for it.

The ghostly figure was caught on a new mobile phone, when its video mode was being tested, and it was only visible after the recording was played back.

Landlords of the pub in Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffs, said that there had been similar spooky things going on.

The footage is said to have scared local Andy Willett and pals Macca and Vince Bundy.

"It has to be a ghost," the Sun quoted Bundy, 43, as saying.

"There is no other explanation. We didn't see it while we were sitting there, only when we played the video.

"I couldn't believe it. You can make out a hat and a waistcoat. I've never seen a video as clear as this before. It's not a fake, it actually happened," he said.

The Tunstall pub called the Ancient Briton, which is now a derelict site after it was targeted by arsonists, was thought to be haunted.

"One previous landlord told a local his young son used to talk to 'another little boy'," Bundy, who has hung on to the footage for three years, said.

"And one tenant's child spoke of a cowboy who used to pick-up his socks," he added. (ANI)
