🎧 The Devil Within
The Rectory of the Damned
Episode 1: The House That Hell Built
This week on The Devil Within, we begin a two-part investigation into one of the most famous hauntings in paranormal history:
Borley Rectory in Essex, England—often called “the most haunted house in England.”
The legend of Borley stretches back centuries to a medieval priory once built on the same ground. According to local lore, a young nun named Marie Lairre was murdered after attempting to flee with a monk, her body secretly buried on the monastery grounds.
When Reverend Henry Bull built Borley Rectory in 1863 on the ruins of that priory, strange events reportedly began almost immediately.
The Bull family described sightings of a mysterious woman in white walking the grounds, unexplained footsteps echoing through empty corridors, and a ghostly figure whose nightly route became known as “the nun’s walk.”
For decades, Borley became one of Britain’s most documented hauntings.
But when the Bull family era ended, the activity would take a darker turn.
