From spooky reports at historic buildings including the Tolbooth and Provost Skene's House, to heart-stopping encounters with apparitions and malevolent spirits in private homes, this collection covers the full range of ghostly phenomena in the city of Aberdeen, including many episodes never before published. Here are tales of the 1970s students who went astral travelling, the poltergeist of Gordon Place, and the spectacular impromptu seance given by the world's most famous medium. This spine-tingling selection also includes shops and pubs whose cellars are haunted by the desperate spirits of kidnapped children; Aberdeen Central Library, where the ghost of a former librarian has been seen among the shelves; a series of shades who have made their presence felt in and around Union Street; a half-naked female servant in a country house; the spirit of a Suffragette in Old Aberdeen; the Green Witch who appeared on a lonely country road; a ghost captured on CCTV in the Central Market; and the persistant hauntings and physical manifestations at the Moorings Bar. Richly illustrated with over 60 photographs and ephemera, Haunted Aberdeen eDistrict is the ultimate guide to the city's haunted heritage.
