Pub spirit is a western film star

THE ghostly figure of a COWBOY walks in front of a roaring fire in a haunted pub and is caught on video.

THE SUN

Spooky ... the ghost walks through the pub

Locals are convinced paranormal forces are at play and that the spooky sighting is definitely a GHOST.

Just visible is a Stetson style hat and a waistcoat. Caught as pals tested out the video mode on a new mobile phone, the strange presence was NOT seen until the recording was played back.

And landlords have told of similar spooky goings-on in the same pub in Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffs. Spooked

Filmed by local Andy Willett and pals Macca and Vince Bundy, the bizarre footage spooked all three.

"It has to be a ghost," Mr Bundy, 43, said. "There is no other explanation." "We didn't see it while we were sitting there, only when we played the video.

"I couldn't believe it.

"You can make out a hat and a waistcoat. I've never seen a video as clear as this before. It's not a fake, it actually happened."

The Tunstall pub called the Ancient Briton, now a derelict site after it was targeted by arsonists, was thought to be HAUNTED.

Mr Bundy, who has hung on to the footage for three years, said: "One previous landlord told a local his young son used to talk to 'another little boy'.

"And one tenant's child spoke of a COWBOY who used to pick-up his socks."

Singer and UFO fan Robbie Williams used to live near the pub.
