In this book, Richard Jones accounts the tales of almost 200 hauntings. He guides you around the city taking you to the most haunted house in London at 50 Berkeley Square to meet apparitions so ghastly that people have been literally scared to death.
Whether you tour the city from your armchair or on foot, you will be transported back through history to the time when Jack the Ripper roamed the streets, when Oliver Cromwell's body was exhumed, tried and 'hanged', and when Nelson died, victorious at Trafalgar.
Richard Jones is an informed and entertaining guide who retells the tales of famous, infamous and ordinary wraiths who inhabit London's underworld. Whether they were plague victims, murderers, actors, lovers or kindly old ladies, their hauntings will captivate your imagination.
Illustrated throughout with atmospheric photography and supported with maps that give the exact location of every haunting, this book will entertain, enlighten and mystify by turns.
