Product Description
Product Description
"Haunted Swindon" successfully documents alleged paranormal activity within the borough of Swindon. The book is a blend of local history, haunting tales, real life ghost experiences and current paranormal research. The aim of the text is to piece together Swindon's haunted heritage. As well as containing many individual case studies, this book also includes ten reports from research investigations which the group has conducted. Employing cutting-edge techniques and a robust scientific methodology, the team attempts to identify the causes of reported anomalous experiences.Readers will be treated to in depth accounts of fleeting apparitions at the Jolly Tar pub in Hannington, the mischievous goings-on at Sally's Cafe in Highworth, a plethora of unexplained noises at Swindon's Wyvern Theatre, the sounds of footsteps echoing through the Central Fire Station, the sense of presence that spooked social workers at Olive House, the reported return of deceased regulars at the Pinehurst Community Centre, the apparent moving of objects at Stanton Park Farmhouse, time slips and Fortean phenomena at a private woodland near Blunsdon and more!The book also gives a glimpse of dozens of haunting reports ranging from private houses, cinemas and pubs to Lydiard House, the steam museum and the arts centre. "Haunted Swindon" is a ghost book with a twist - it is written by real-life paranormal investigators and contains up-to-the minute psychological research and educated critical analysis. "Haunted Swindon" is a break from the traditional embellished ghost story, bringing the real world of hauntings to life.
