King Charles I has been seen many times in library and Canon’s house, and although he was beheaded during English Revolution, his ghost is seen as a whole. It is said he looks exactly like his portraits.

King George III had many bouts with mental deterioration. During these times he was kept out of public’s eye. He can be seen looking out windows located below Royal Library where he was confined during recurrence of his illness.

The first Duke of Buckingham, Sir George Villiers, is said to haunt one of bedrooms of Windsor castle.

His ghost has seen by other soldiers on guard duty afterwards.
