Vassals Park - Haunted History

Bristol, Bristol
The Grade II listed parkland, known locally as Vassals Park, has a gruesome past. There used to be a stately home on the estate and local legend tells of a Catholic monk who secretly held mass at a time when it was illegal to do so was hidden in a "priest hole" and forgotten about and starved to death. He's now said to haunt the estate.
