Haunted Plymouth - What is the most haunted location you have visited and did you witness anything supernatural whilst being their?

The B3212 road between Postbridge and Two Bridges - legend states that this stretch of road is known to be the haunt for “The Hairy Hands”


There are indeed many tales of past spine-chilling experiences on this very stretch of road upon Dartmoor – over the years many eye witnesses have come forward and retold there own accounts with the so called legend of Hairy Hands.

From the early 1900’s the likes of cyclists who traveled past this sinister area felt an unseen force wrench there bicycle handle bar’s out of there hands, forcing the rider into the near by ditch by the side of the road. Cars and motorcycles have too had similar fates and in some circumstances with fatal results, this even led to the national newspaper ‘The Daily Mail’ to send their reporters to find what the cause was behind these so called reports.


Many locals would avoid travelling along this stretch of road alone after dark as many described it as a fearsome place. One case involved an army officer riding his motorcycle, who was badly injured and when further questioned he, revealed that a large pair of muscular hairy hands enveloped his own hands and forced him to crash.

I have taken part in numerous all night paranormal investigations upon Datmoor and this location is one of my personal favorites – although personally I can not state that I have indeed come face to face with the infamous Hairy Hands, although I can say there is something of an imposing atmosphere that emanates such an ominous vibe whilst walking this area after dark. You do have the feeling that you are not alone and that some unseen force is leering and stalking you as you stroll along this stretch of the B3212.
