`More ghosts and goblins I think were prevalent in Wales than in
England or any other country.' So wrote researcher William Howells
way back in 1831 - and the author of this compelling collection
believes he was right. Wales is a fearfully haunted place. It
abounds in castles and mansions, ancient churches, lonely lanes and
crossroads, even bare mountainsides which can lay claim to a
resident spook or two. For the first time, this haunted heritage
has been explored in depth. Richard Holland has carried out a
careful study of original sources, delving into old books,
journals, Eisteddfod transactions and unpublished essays. His
research has revealed insights into Welsh folklore and resurrected
ghost stories which have long been forgotten. The ghosts of Wales
are of great age, their manners and appearance hinting at beliefs
older than the oldest books. They are bold and memorable, striking
in appearance, forceful in character, often terrifying and
sometimes even dangerous. Prepare for a fascinating
county-by-county tour of hundreds of ghostly encounters from one of
the most haunted countries in the world.
