This collection of chilling tales from Cheltenham and its surroundings would be enough to frighten the wits out of most paranormal fanatics, but the horror is taken up a notch in this volume because Prestbury, reputedly the most haunted village in Britain, lies within its borders.
Illustrated with over sixty atmospheric photographs, this book includes scary stories of a Civil War spook, a spinet-playing shade, a time-stealing sprite, an out-of-body-experience spectre, a snake-ridden and skull-faced phantom, and a bedroom-wrecking banshee. Descriptions of the town’s architecture and history are woven into jaw-dropping stories of spooky happenings that will captivate any reader with a taste for the supernatural.
