1. 'The Cage', Clacton-on-Sea
Property price: £269,000
Reason? A prison for witches

This two bed-semi detached house might not look too daunting from the outside, especially given it's lively yellow paint job, but a dark secret lies within. In the 16th century women accused of witchcraft were held here until sentencing. The sing above pays testament to the building's history, explaining that famous suspected witch Ursula Kemp was kept in the house until she was hanged.

2. The Ice House, Kincardineshire
Property price: £340,000
Reason? A romantic end

The Ice House was originally a salmon fishing station, but that's not what puts it on the map. George Beattic, the poet, proposed to a local heiress who later broke of the relationship to marry another man. Beattic was distraught and stood in the graveyard by the house, firing practice shots at the property. He later turned the gun on himself - a memorial to him still stands in the graveyard.

3. The Three Pigeons Inn, North Wales
Property price: £775,000
Reason? Ghostly sightings

The Three Pigeons Inn was rebuilt in 1777 and still serves ale straight from the cellar. However, traditional beer aside, a number of locals have experienced paranormal encounters in the pub, including the ghost of an old man sitting by the fire and a teenager wreaking havoc around the property. Why not pop in for a spirit?

4. Barley Green Farmhouse, Lancashire
Property price: £515,000
Reason? Plenty of history

This 1796 home was once the preaching location of John Wesley (founder of the Wesleyan Methodist Church) but that's not what grants it its place on this list. The property is near a Bronze Age burial ground found at the summit of Pendle Hill, home to the Pendle witches. Tourists flock to the area each year in the hopes of a witch sighting!
