Beschrijving boek
Compiled by John Seymour & Harry Neligan.
‘To my horror, the footsteps ascended the stairs, and the bedroom door was violently dashed against a washing-stand … A cold perspiration broke out all over me; it was not actual fear, it was more than that. I felt I had come into contact with the unicorn.’
Who has not been held spellbound by tales of ghosts and haunted happenings? Are they true? Editor John Seymour affirms: ‘This at least I can vouch for, that the majority of the stories were sent to me as first or second-hand experiences by ladies and gentlemen whose statement on an ordinary matter of fact would be accepted without question.’
In compiling the book, newspaper readers throughout Ireland were invited to submit their recorded incidences of unusual happenings. The result is a delightful collection of tingling tales of poltergeists, supernaturual experiences, haunted houses, death warnings and bashees - tales not of the imaginary but the faithful recounting of people’s actual experiences.
