INFINITII

When this was "The Royal Oak", a man (described as having a long white beard and wearing a cloak) had been seen in the attic area and in one of the bathrooms, and a music box heard playing in the bar area. A small blonde girl is also said to have been seen at the top of the cellar steps; her head and shoulders were desribed as being solid, but everything else was misty. Another visible phantom was a black cat. People have also reported the smell of pipe smoke and violets. It is not known if these phenomena persist.
