Today on STM I’m taking it back to the early 1800s and the village of Hammersmith, located in foggy London.

Nowadays, Hammersmith is a populated area within the Greater London area, home to almost 200,000 people . In December of 1803, However, the village only had about 5,500 inhabitants - the perfect setting for local gossip to run amok.

And amok it ran! Tales of an ominous specter were spreading among the village. It was described as a white-shrouded figure that would stalk Black Lion Lane. Some said it wore calfskin clothes and had horns and large glass-like eyes. Local legend was that the spectre was actually the restless spirit of a man who’d taken his own life the year before, and who was now condemned to haunt the grounds of St. Paul’s churchyard.

But was the figure really a ghost?

And how did this lead to a legal dilemma that would last for 200 years?
