What intrigued us the most about Silent Pool is its haunted and mysterious history. Dating back to Saxon times, the Silent Pool is known to have hosted the disappearance of the well-known author, Agatha Christie. It is also possibly where she drowned after her disappearance. It has been said that her ghost continues to haunt the pool to this day. Another, more infamous legend surrounding the Silent Pool, involves the heavily disliked King John. It is named the ‘Tupper’s Tale’ and took place early December 1926. The legend goes to describe a young maid, named Emma that used the Silent Pool to bathe in. One day while bathing, she noticed King John looking at her and realized he was advancing towards her. Uncomforted by this, she began to move away and accidentally slipped into the deep end of the pool. The legend details that King John made no effort to save her. As he abandoned the area, a feather from his hat falls into the lake, producing the evidence that proves his involvement. As the maid is left screaming for help, her brother hears her and plunges himself into the lake to save her. Not realizing the true depth of the lake, he fails and unfortunately; both drown.
