Shadows on the Water

This fascinating volume takes a look at some of the strange
and unexplained hauntings reported across Britain's canal
and waterways network: echoes in dark tunnels; stone steps
stained red with blood spilled long ago; ghostly footsteps
accompanying barges beneath a bridge. Mixing long-
established ghostly tales with first-hand accounts, Allan
Scott-Davies presents a grisly collection of supernatural
stories. From the screaming ghost near Market Drayton to the
Roman soldier in Chester guarding the canal, the drowning
man at Lapworth and the white lady of the Hatton flight, all
is revealed with a map of locations and, for some of the
more haunted sites, a guided tour map. This illustrated book
is sure to delight lovers of the waterways and paranormal
alike.
