The Derbyshire Ghost Plane haunting was a bizarre ghost vehicle reportedly witnessed flying over Derbyshire, England, United Kingdom, back in August of 2015.

Manifestations[]

  • A completely silent WWII-era plane

Background[]

Witness accounts suggest that the plane appears to be a WWII bomber, specifically a Avro Lancaster. This identification is significant because it implies that the sightings may be connected to historical events from World War II, possibly involving the spirits of pilots or planes lost during that time. The lack of sound associated with these sightings adds to their mysterious nature; witnesses have described the aircraft as completely silent despite its low altitude.

Christine and Robin, a couple from South Derbyshire who reported seeing the plane vanish above them in August 2015. Their experience was corroborated by numerous other individuals who claimed similar sightings over the past two decades in areas like Chatsworth and the Peak District. Another witness, Richard Jephson, described an encounter where he felt compelled to duck as the plane appeared so close that it seemed about to crash.

Pam Brooks also shared her experience from approximately 17 years prior, reinforcing the idea that such sightings are not isolated incidents but part of a broader pattern in this region. Many witnesses express skepticism regarding their own experiences, often questioning whether what they saw was real or imagined.
