Does anyone know a story or legend about ghosts and the yew tree?

Tell, even a short story or a brief narrative. I revere the Yew trees and I am very curious about them. Please also tell, if possible, the place where the story or legend happened and if you have any saxon ascendance.

Does anyone know a story or legend about ghosts and the yew tree?
The yew's reputation for long life is due to the unique way in which the tree grows. Its branches grow down into the ground to form new stems, which then rise up around the old central growth as separate but linked trunks. After a time, they cannot be distinguished from the original tree. So the yew has always been a symbol of death and rebirth, the new that springs out of the old, and a fitting tree for us to study at the beginning of this new year. As the days now grow longer with the beginning of a new solar cycle, we move into the future on the achievements of the past, new creativity springs forth grounded in the accomplishments of " the year gone by.
