Ghosthunter claims to have captured footage of a woman killed in a crash in 1945

A ghosthunter claims she has captured the ghost of a woman who died in motorcycle crash in 1945 during a visit to a legendary haunted road.

Rachel Parsons, 49, who leads the Retford Ghost Hunters, was travelling with her friend, Will, 28, to search for potential locations when she heard the story of Catherine Bystock.

Known locally as the Metheringham Lass, she visited the former site of RAF Metheringham on Sunday (23/1) and was shocked when viewers on a livestream noticed a ghostly figure.

Catherine Bystock was a 19-year-old woman who died in a motorcycle crash outside the RAF base during WWII.

Many local residents have reported sightings over the years of a young woman crying in the middle of the road.

Eerie footage captured by Rachel, allegedly show the skeletal face of Catherine and a 'cat ball' lighting up in the same position they heard tapping on the car.

Mum-of-one Rachel from Retford, Notts., said: "As part of our team, we quite often go around places to look for potential locations for ghost sightings.
