Haunted Waters

Haunted Waters gathers reported hauntings associated with rivers, streams, lakes and pools across Great Britain and Ireland. Elliott O'Donnell focuses on water-bound locations where ghost stories, local traditions and accounts of apparitions have become attached to particular landscapes.

Published during O'Donnell's later period as a prolific writer on ghosts, the book continues his interest in presenting supernatural claims through collected narratives rather than fictional invention. Its setting is distinctly British and Irish, with waterways providing the common thread between stories from different regions. The result is a focused collection of folklore and haunting accounts centred on places where water, memory and reported paranormal experience meet.
