Hi Ive had a quick look on the site for haunted campsites in the cornwall area but couldnt find anything just wondering if anyone knows of any where. Was thinking Bodmin is supose to be scary so anywhere around that area, cornwall, newquay etc

Thanks

haha

 i agree,the whole blooming county is well haunted.....if not by grockles,then by second home owners...lol

some of the sites ive been on ,ive been well scared by the prices!!....and if you actually do meet an actual live and kicking CORNISHMAN...well then you will be well frightened!! lol.......haha   . no seriously its a great county an if you pick the right site down in the farrrrrrrrrr west, around west penwith,or the lizard you will find what you are looking for...............savvy?????

YE BE WARNED......................!!!!!!!!

Cant help with any sites but, me and a couple of mates did have an 'experience' several years ago when taking a trip in the van down to Newquay...

driving over Bodmin on a foggy night during the time when the beast of bodmin stories were rife, we stopped in a layby as we all needed a jimmy. As we were doing our business in a hedge, we heard this deep throated growling from the other side of the hedge  Not one of us stopped what we were doing to find out what the noise was (resulting in a few damp patches  ) we all jumped back into the car and drove off, not stopping until we saw any signs of live and light  

Oooh, that sounds scary!  Probably the beast of Bodmin Moor!

Bodmin Jail is haunted, they featured on Most Haunted once - so camping anywhere around Bodmin would be ideal.

I was just thinking if you ever come down this way you could stop en-route on Dartmoor.  There are loads of reported hauntings and legends on the moor.  There is a campsite at Postbridge (basic site) and the famous "Hairy Hands" ghostly sighting is supposed to haunt the area between Postbridge & Two Bridges

Bodmin Gaol host supernatural evenings where you get a "ghost" tour overnight but they are expensive. 

As Debsy said, at Colliford Lake, they have the Burning of the Beast and fireworks.  This year its on Oct 31st because we had a leaflet in our door (we live in Liskeard).  Its always a good evening. 

Personally, I would say head West...LOL, Penzance area has some great sites and there are lots of ghostly goings on down there.
