[steve56]

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest- especially if I'd got a few quid off.
Superstitious claptrap.

I do still stand by my first post, but yeh Im inclined to agree to an extent; if the house seemed ok then it wouldnt bother me too much - if it felt a bit dark and wrong somehow then id get the fuck out. Someone probably died in most houses over a 100 years old at some point, I guess the implication of murder is that the evil "may still linger" or something

[steve56]

or a blithe spirit?

True, given that you have to LIVE in the place......
......you might get a bad vibe for no reason at all, even from a house that had merely been occupied by two nice old ladies who only ever kept bunny-rabbits, and knitted overcoats for tortoises.........

It?s the something that would concern me. Weren?t there body parts buried in this house? Imagine doing a bit of DIY?ing... ?Ahh, what have I uncovered here? An old Victorian marble fireplace maybe?? ...No, someone?s thigh-bone.

....less of a shock if you were aware of the house's history, than otherwise.
The 'legal opinions' aired on TV last night seem not to have considered this aspect.
