The claim that the well-known highwayman Dick Turpin is among the ghosts reported to haunt The Spaniards Inn in Hampstead Heath, North London, may be what sets it apart.
Turpin is rumored to have utilized the watering hole as a hiding.
Turpin's father was formerly the pub's landlord.
While some say they have seen Turpin's horse wandering the parking lot, many others claim to have seen his spirit moving between the upper stories of the structure.
But the Spaniards Inn has a fascinating and violent past even before then.
Juan and Francesco Porero, two Spanish brothers, opened it for business in 1585.
At first everything was well, but then they both developed feelings for the same woman.
In the end, the two brothers engaged in a duel that was fatal for Juan.
After Francesco's death, his body was buried in the pub's grounds.
Many individuals have since reported seeing the former owner of the establishment wandering the area around it.
Employees have also frequently reported being poked or having their clothes tugged by what appears to be an unseen pair of hands.
