Headley Grange: Led Zepplin Recorded in a HAUNTED Recording Studio?
One of the coolest recording studios in all of Rock-n-Roll history is also the most HAUNTED.
What is Headley Grange? Constructed in 1795 as the “Headley House of Industry”, the home and its surrounding acreage located in Hampshire, England was used as a workhouse for orphans, elders, illegitimate children, and the poor. It was eventually converted into a private residence, an art school, and a recording studio. Led Zeppelin used Headley Grange as their primary recording studio for the albums Led Zeppelin III, Led Zeppelin IV, Houses of the Holy, and Physical Graffiti. The Headley Grange recording studio was also host to Fleetwood Mac, Bad Company, Genesis, The Pretty Things, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Ian Dury, Clover, and Elvis Costello. Many of the bands that recorded at Headley Grange recount strange paranormal activity from creaking noises, moving furniture, and apparitions walking the grounds of this almost 250 year old estate. Today the home is a private residence and does not offer tours.
