Residents in the UK village of Pluckley, known as the country's most haunted village, have described Halloween as a "living nightmare" due to an influx of ghost hunters causing mayhem. The village is renowned for its 12 supposed ghosts and its previous listing in the Guinness Book of World Records. Locals have expressed their frustration at the damage caused by visitors, with some boarding up their windows. However, the chairman of Pluckley Parish Council believes that barn owls may be responsible for some of the reported supernatural activity.
