In Popular Culture
It is said that every year, on the anniversary of her execution, Anne Boleyn's headless ghost arrives at Blickling Hall in a carriage driven by an equally headless coachman. But she hasn't lost her head completely in the afterlife—she carries it along with her during her hauntings.
Blickling Hall is used as "Bono's house" in the series 2 episode of I'm Alan Partridge "I Know What Alan Did Last Summer".
It is also used in the Charlene music video for "I've Never Been To Me".
It was voted the most haunted house in Britain in a National Trust survey in October 2007.
