In the Victorian era, sensational ghost stories were headline news.
Spine-chilling reports of two-headed phantoms, murdered knights and
spectral locomotives filled the pages of the press. Spirits
communicated with the living at dark seances, forced terrified
families to flee their homes and caused superstitious workers to
down their tools at the haunted mines. This book contains more than
fifty hair-raising - and in some cases, comical - real life
accounts from Wales, dating from 1837 to 1901. Unearthed from
newspaper archives, they include chilling prophecies from beyond
the grave, poltergeists terrorising the industrial communities, and
more than a few ingenious hoaxes along the way.
