Ghost Tales of the United Kingdom

 A comprehensive, entertaining guide to the supernatural hiding and hauntings (and there are so many...) of the United Kingdom. From the buzzing metropolis of London to the remotest corners of Scotland, there are famous spectres and many contemporary hauntings to satisfy the curiosity of the paranormal afficonado.

I wasn't aware of the Welsh myth of the mountain that grew so angry during the Crucifixion of Christ that split in two nor did I know about the rare spirit of the two-headed ghost, the headless dog or the strange footprints like the ones found in Devil and the ghost of a mermaid. In Scotland, there is the angry spirit of the brownie that foretold the death of the master of the house at the Battle of Culloden. On moonlit nights, one can hear the Highland bagpiper lamenting the glories of the past. Did you know about the A75 road that is haunted by a literal army of ghosts, from animals to knights, to disembodied cries and attacks on cars? I had never read about Major Weir and his story was downright creepy...But I did know about Bloody Mackenzie and his attacks around the area of Greyfriars Kirkyard cemetery. Not to be neglected, the Orkney Islands and the Shetland Islands are home to some of the most terrifying Scottish ghosts.

From pubs to churches, to highways, castles, landscapes, buildings, the UK is a treasure trove for lovers of the paranormal and this guide is absolutely necessary to your collection.
