🎃👻 A Keele Halloween Mystery... Can You Help? 👻🎃
The Special Collections & Archives holds several press cuttings relating to Haunted, a short-lived supernatural television series starring Patrick Mower, parts of which were filmed at Keele in 1967.
Newspaper reports tell us that a team from A.B.C. Television visited the University on 2 February 1967 and returned on 30 March 1967. Filming reportedly took place by the lakeside and outside the Vice-Chancellor's building, where a vintage Rolls-Royce was used.
Despite checking our student publications from the period, we've found very little else about the production. Adding to the mystery, no episodes of the series are known to survive today.
As Halloween approaches, we're wondering if anyone remembers the filming or knows anything about Haunted's visit to Keele.
