Where the Ghosts Walk

Where the Ghosts Walk is a gazetteer of reported hauntings across Britain, organised by the kinds of places where apparitions and related phenomena are said to occur. Airfields, ancient sites, ruins, bridges, battlefields, graveyards, gardens, railways, seascapes, highways and woods all have their place.

Peter Underwood brings together accounts ranging from the ghost of King Arthur at Tintagel to Jacobite soldiers reported in Gallows Tree Lane. Other entries include the phantom Spitfire associated with Biggin Hill airfield, placing modern wartime folklore alongside older legends and historic traditions. The result is a geographically broad reference book centred on locations, their stories and the claims attached to them.
