The Museum of East Dorset is in Wimborne Minster, in a building described by Great British Life as a 1500s former residence. The magazine includes it in a round-up of Dorset's most haunted locations.
The reported phenomena are murmured conversation near the grand staircase and unexplained noises and smells from the kitchen. In the second-hand book room a man surrounded by newspapers has been seen, and books have been found moved from the shelves.
The details come from one article with no dates, named staff or witnesses. Staff-and-volunteer ghost stories at museums are common and are often passed informally, so I record this as a thin single report. The pin is at Wimborne town centre.
