We have a strange and profound fascination with experiences of seeing orsensing spirits from beyond the grave, and in Yorkshire we have a place withmore than its fair share of such manifestations. The county is vast, and there is aviolent history in the tales of its castles, abbeys, mansions and gaols. There areample Yorkshire records of ghosts, boggards, guytrash dogs and the moredisturbing 'elementals'. Some restless souls are perhaps desperate criminals fromthe gallows, while others are powerful men who have diedthrough treason or betrayal.Hauntings in Yorkshire is a different kind of ghost case book. It brings togetherboth well-known traditional stories and experiences gathered by the author fromhis own researches and from testimonies and reports by Yorkshire people whohave contacted him with their accounts of paranormal experience. Tales byordinary folk therefore mix here with famous murders and horrible deaths, allintroduced by a preface from paranormal expert and TV personality Ian Lawman.
