The stories about the various ghosts allegedly haunting Henry VIII's Hampton Court Palace simply will not go away.

I've read many of these stories -- both of the ghosts and of their "debunking" (of course there is said to be more than one ghost) and I guess in the "spirit" of Christmas, the ghost is acting up...

This was in my local paper today.

But CNN and the BBC have pictures of this apparition. So do many local news outlets.

The stories have finally reached the blogosphere.

Considering that bloggers are the most cynical, fearless, and intrepid of all journalists, and considering the fact that moblogging (with or without cameras) is increasingly de rigeur, I am wondering why bloggers can't descend on this haunted palace with their various devices, and track down the ghost, ghosts, prankster, or pranksters responsible. (Boo who?)

Jeff Jarvis is now moblogging via the mindboggling Treo 600, and I just stumbled onto what may be an even cheaper alternative: the T-mobile sidekick.

There's even a blog devoted to the Sidekick. (Via EM-BROF.)

Amazingly enough, the concept is at least a year old, and you can even use Movable Type with these things.

Try your hand at ghostwriting!

The problem with me is that I am really slow.....

And to catch a ghost, you have to be fast.

Furthermore, there's that old Pagan saying: "Don't go to your grave without a graven image."
