Overnight Ghost Hunt - Mansion House, Cardiff - Ghostly Nights

Details

This grade II listed building was built in 1896 for James Howell, of Howell Department Store in Cardiff.

The house was known then as 'The Grove'.

For many years, the Mansion House served as the official residence of the Lord Mayor of Cardiff.

Civic occasions and events were hosted within its opulent walls.

The Lord Mayor’s role and responsibilities were closely tied to this grand Victorian house.

An interesting feature of the house is that it was designed to be divided into two sections, with two front doors and a wall in the cellar allowing for upward expansion.

In 1913, the Cardiff Corporation purchased the Mansion House and a major overhaul was carried out in 1998. Since then it has been used by the Cardiff Council for various events, civil ceremonies, weddings, and as the base for their protocol team.

Visitors have reported unexplained chills, faint whispers, and the sensation of being watched, some have reported glimpses of a gentleman in Victorian attire, sometimes seen near the grand staircase or in the drawing room.

James Howell, the original owner of the Mansion House, is said to linger within its walls.

On moonlit nights, strains of piano music are said to emanate from the ballroom. Yet, when the room is investigated, it stands empty, the keys untouched.

Is it the ghostly echo of a forgotten soirée, or something more otherworldly?

Will you step into the Mansion House’s embrace? Will you peer into the darkness and ask, “Who lingers here?"
