Fanny Kemp
Fanny Kemp was a woman who lived in the 18th century and had been murdered by her husband.
Following Fanny's death it was believed that she had died of scarlet fever, however she had actually been poisoned with arsonic. She began haunting the new residents of her house Mr and Mrs Parsons who created the legend of "Scratching Fanny" and charged the locals to visit their home in order to experience the hauntings for themselves. Eventually the Parsons were accused of being frauds and were thrown into prison, alongside their children Elizabeth and her brother.
In the 1960s Fanny haunted the Cock Lane studio, which was built on the spot where her house once stood, and had a recorded interview with Gary. Dodie Golightly began investigating the case when her friend Timothy Bold experienced supernatural occurrences. When Fanny's grave was unearthed her preserved body ruled out her dying of scarlet fever. (PROSE: Dodie Golightly and the Ghost of Cock Lane)
