Since many are skeptical as to the actual existence of ghosts, I had no idea that the science of ghost behavior was so well-known. Whether a ghost would walk through a wall or open a fire door might depend on the mood of the ghost at the moment, mighten it? I am not sure that I feel that a ghost would not open a door that hadn't existed during its life time. Don't ghosts sometimes frequent buildings built in the same location of other buildings they once frequented? The question of whether ghosts can learn to operate a panic bar is one I have never seen addressed, but I am not a student of paranormal psychology. Perhaps if a ghost were haunting someone and saw them use the panic bar, the ghost could pick up the knack from that. We have a squirrel feeder. If one squirrel figures out the feeder the others all copy what he is doing. That Australian tourists saw such a figure in the costume in question certainly provides a non-supernatural explanation for the apparition. However, the fact that the costume is one more likely to be associated with Christopher Wren is confusing. Does Hampton Court typically host events where people dress up like Christopher Wren? Does the inappropriateness of the era of the costume again throw us into the supernatural explanation. And what is the supernatural explanation of why Christopher Wren would haunt Hampton Court? Did he forget his slide rule there? I was happy to see the Hampton Court phenomenom prompted a review of other notable hauntings of the place, included among them that of my distant relative Catherine Howard. Her cousin Ann Bolyn is a well-known haunter as well. I always like to take any opportunity to remind people that in my family our ability to make you miserable doesn't necessarily end with death.
