Paranormal Surrey

Paranormal Surrey gathers first-hand accounts and archive reports connected with the county’s darker folklore and unexplained claims. Rupert Matthews covers a broad range of subjects, including reported big cat sightings, ancient monsters, poltergeists and UFOs, setting these alongside Surrey’s better-known myths and legends.

The book also draws attention to lesser-known incidents recorded in the county’s history, presenting reports from residents and archival sources rather than treating them as established fact. Modern photographs and archive images accompany accounts of phenomena that have attracted attention, fear or speculation in Surrey, offering a locally focused survey of ghost stories, strange sightings and other paranormal traditions.
