Becontree station is on the District line in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, serving the large Becontree council estate. The Wikipedia article on the station has a short note under popular culture saying it is said to be haunted by a faceless woman with long blonde hair that several staff members have sighted.
The note is sourced to a 2008 piece by Mike Heffernan called "Ghosts on the London Underground". The sighting is not dated, and the witnesses are staff in general, not named.
Other websites link the apparition to a fatal accident at the station, but that detail was not found in a source that could be checked, and is not repeated here. It is a short single-source station tradition, tagged traditional.
