A dad believes his son's local play park has been 'haunted by ghosts' after capturing a swing rocking on its own - with no one nearby. Billy Price, 32, spotted the eerie swing as he was taking his eight-year-old son swimming on Wednesday (30/10). He claims it continued swinging of its own accord for five minutes - despite no one being in sight. In the video, the swing - located on Church Road, Teddington, London - can be seen swinging while the other swings beside it are completely still.
