History & Hauntings

Thackray Medical Museum is housed on the site of the Leeds Union Workhouse. Opened in 1861 and designed and built by workhouse architects Perkins and Backhouse, the building house 784 paupers at its opening. It is not likely children were present in this workhouse due to the Moral and Industrial Training school being built a few years before which was designed to educate poor children in how to make shoes.

The Thackray Museum is one of the truly unique places you can visit and is the only one of it’s kind in the North of England.

Ghostly sightings include an apparition of a woman in 18th Century clothing who can be seen waving at staff, Mysterious disembodied footsteps followed by a strange odour, oppressive feelings of dread and depression in certain parts of the building, ghost of a man in a white coat has been seen on the cobbles of the Victorian street, poltergeist activity and knocks and bangs being heard when calling out.
