Haunted Cornwall

For anyone who would like to know why Cornwall is called the most haunted place in Britain, this collection of stories of apparitions, manifestations and related supernatural incidents from around the Duchy provides the answer. From heart-stopping accounts of poltergeists to first-hand encounters with ghouls and spirits who haunt prehistoric graves, Haunted Cornwall contains a chilling range of ghostly phenomena. Drawing on historical and contemporary sources, it features a gory medieval murder at Poundstock; a gruelling exorcism at Botathan; the spectre of Annie George at the First and Last Inn at Sennen; a 'human double' clocking in for work at St Austell; a vanishing house at Bossiney; and a phantom stagecoach on the Mevagissey road.
