Roman Ghost Stories?

[flavia]

Greetings Flavia,

There are several cases of Roman Legionarries being seen in the City of York in a basement.They appear to walk along the original road way.If i can find any further on this i will post.

Thanks for replying My ghost is also from York. I had a painting done of a roman soldier by a man who was born in York when his 92 year old father saw the painting he said I used to talk to one of them in my bedroom when I was a child. He apparently asked the soldier what his sword was called and the reply came back "Jani"I presume a form of Janus the god of portals, life death etc What do you think??

I am very interested in ghosts and the paranormal (started the ghostly Romans thread) and your story is fascinating.
I wonder if this soldier is related to a previous incarnation, or possibly he guided the artist to portray him, to let you know he was still there?
I have certain reactions in some areas of York, connected to the Romans, possibly due to a past life experience...although I love the city.
regards
Arthes

I know what you mean I think some of us who have this passion for romans and mine began when I was 7-8 years old must have some connection in some way with this time period, There is a guy here who I met once whose wife goes along with him about it but he is only comfortable when dressed as an ancient roman soldier and does so quite a bit of the time. Is this the screen I am to reply on are am I doing it in the wrong place.I contacted the guy who does the ghost tours of York and gave him the familys name and he was going to do more research into it and I guess perhaps adding it to his tour maybe Is this the right screen to reply ??
