M6 Motorway

Spanning from Rugby to Carlisle, the M6 is one of the UK’s busiest roads, but has been the site of paranormal sightings since opening in 1958. You’ll find the usual suspects: ghosts darting across the road only to vanish, spectral animals, spooky figures, and glowing eyes.

But the M6 loosely follows an ancient Roman road that allowed soldiers passage through England into Scotland.

Apparently, someone forgot to tell a group of these soldiers that Rome fell in the fifth century.

If you’re unlucky – or lucky, depending on how you look at it – you might see these soldiers still parading on, endlessly doomed to repeat their last march.

The old Roman road is now well below the tarmac, but physics is no barrier to these centurions – you’ll see them wading through concrete like they’re marching through water.

Some believe these soldiers were heading into battle, or that the road itself was the site of a bloody conflict, while others say this section was built on a Roman burial ground. Either way, the toll charge isn’t the scariest thing about the M6.
