Product Description

Product Description

The British Isles are arguably amongst the most spectrally populous parts of the world - this guide is aimed at anyone interested in the ranks of dismembered, decapitated spectres that inhabit the countries' stately homes and blasted heaths. Region by region, ghost-seeker Richard Jones reveals, explains and delights in the tales of the tortured phantoms eager to restage their dark and turbulent pasts. The cast of characters ranges from ghostly legionaries that tramp the long-buried streets of Roman York to the malevolent fairy lights of Derbyshire's Longendale, from the shade of Ladford's murderous vicar to the grief-stricken white lady who may or may not have attended pop singer Madonna's wedding at Skibo Castle. The book is illustrated throughout and features extracts from original documents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Whatta great read!, 25 April 2003
By H. Doherty "Movie maven" (Wenatchee, Washington United States) - See all my reviews

I started reading this book and just couldn't put it down! I've watched 'Ghosthunters' a few times and was surprised to see some of the places mentioned on the show in this book. The accompanying pictures were great in getting a place in mind. If you want to read about the haunted history of the UK..then read this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars An informative read, 4 Nov 2001
By wellben60@hotmail.com (Darlington, England) - See all my reviews
I liked this book. The author has wittily narrated a collection of ghost stories from the British Isles. The pictures are colourful and apt making way for an entertaining read.
In conclusion i would recommend this book especially to those with an interest in the paranormal and also to the general reader. Hugely entertaining.

4.0 out of 5 stars Richard Jones' Haunted Britain & Ireland, 22 Jun 2004
By MISS L E C VALE (Saffron Walden, Essex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
When I developed a fascination with ghosts my parents bought me this book. For many months it sat on my bookshelf unread. One day my partner & I were bored & decided to find out if there were any places in the book that were near to our home in Essex. We found Borley Rectory in the book & after reading the exciting story of the location we jumped into the car & went straight there. As predicted by the book there were fellow ghost hunters at the rectory which we had not expected at 23:00 on a saturday night! After only a few minutes we became rather uneasy & decided to retreat. (we wussed out!) Once we arrived home again we read the entire contents of the book in a few hours & oved every bit of it. We plan to visit as many places in it as possible!
