If I asked you to name "the most haunted house in London", you probably wouldn't pick Berkeley Square as your location.

Yet for almost a century, No. 50. Berkeley Square had quite the supernatural reputation.

It's part of the Grosvenor Estate in Mayfair, built in the mid-18th century by architect William Kent. Famous residents of the square have included Horace Walpole, Winston Churchill, William Pitt the Younger, Charles Rolls, the co-founder of Rolls Royce, and Harry Gordon Selfridge.

But was it actually haunted? Let's find out in this week’s episode of Fabulous Folklore!
