The mysterious 'spooky house' that casts an eerie shadow over the North Wales coast
Casting a gloomy spectre over a Welsh coastal town is a unique property known locally as the “spooky house”.The work ceased during the First World War and the house was finally completed in around 1919. It was built for a wealthy Englishman called William Smellie, who was one of a number of people to build holiday homes around Porth Diana at the time.
Carig Y Môr was used as a summer house until the late 1920's when William Smellie was ill and decided to move there permanently with his wife, Ethel. Mr Smellie died in 1955, followed by Mrs Smellie six years later, and the house was later passed to their third daughter, Ruth, in 1978, the Daily Post reports .
