The Devil’s Stone Inn, Shebbear
Named after the local Devil’s Stone, this Inn is supposed to be haunted by a young girl aged around seven years. In 1982 a student staying at the pub saw her in his bedroom with accompanied by a grey bearded man. A young boy staying visiting the Inn also came across her in the upstairs toilet. She is considered to be a friendly ghost by all accounts.
The building is a 17th Century former farmhouse which was converted into a coaching inn around circa 1600. There is also a hidden tunnel legend attached to the pub that apparently links it to the church.
