Former residence of the French royals, most notably Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette (before they had their heads lopped off), Versailles is one of the most famous buildings in France. It’s also haunted.

In 1901, two English women from St. Hugh’s College, Oxford, were on a bonding trip to improve their working relations, which beats team-building in a field, in our opinion.

Unlike many ghost stories, it was a hot August day, and the pair began to have some strange encounters.

Lost in the gardens near the Petit Trianon, they asked some funnily-dressed men wearing tricornes for directions, and as they did so, a great feeling of unease fell upon the pair.


A little later, they came across a serene-looking woman painting, wearing a long, white 18th-century dress.Who was she? Madame du Barry? Or even Marie Antoinette herself?
