A HOUSE claiming to be Britain’s most haunted has been put up for sale by its female owner who has been left traumatized by the ghost of a satanic goat.

    Vanessa Mitchell, 43, from St. Osyth, Essex, was unaware that the cottage, known as the Cage, was haunted when she moved there in 2004.

    Since then she claims to have seen numerous ghostly figures, been pushed over while heavily pregnant and smacked on the bottom.

    She even claims to have seen blood splatters appear on the floor.

    However, the nail in the coffin came for her when a CCTV camera picked up the image of what she claims was a satanic goat roaming the premises.

    Vanessa, who works in sales, said, “The face spotted on the picture and CCTV footage is the spitting image of a satanic devil.

    “I honestly believe the house is cursed, I have lived there for years but for me seeing a tall dark figure standing between me and my son’s cot was the final straw for me.

    “Footage from the past couple of weeks shows a satanic goat, which just reaffirms that the place is haunted by something malevolent.

    “There’s something evil there in there, something demonic, whatever it is that’s keeping the other spirits trapped inside.”

    When Vanessa first bought the Cage for £148,000 (US$211,700) in 2004, she was unaware of its haunted history.

    The property, which was formally a medieval prison, hosted one of England’s most famous witch hunts, in which eight women died.

    She has kept it for 11 years — making her its second-longest owner, with previous buyers selling the property in less than four years.

    She continued, “I have seen more than I could ever have imagined over the years in the Cage — from being attacked while I was pregnant to being smacked on the backside.

    “I was never warned about the paranormal activity in the house when I bought it and think I was drawn to it to try to help the house.

    “The house has always constantly been up for sale before I bought it, it’s a lovely house in a perfect location in a nice quaint village but what’s in the house makes people move in as little as six months.

    “A couple of hundred years ago one man bought the Cage for £150 and sold it for £50 less shortly after just to get rid of it.”
