Haunted Yorkshire

Haunted Yorkshire gathers reported ghost stories, local legends and darker historical tales from across the county. Nick Tyler discusses ghostly hounds on the North York Moors, a phantom highwayman in Sheffield, the Oxenhope spectre and Jenny Gallows at the Flamborough chalk pits.

The book also visits locations associated with reported paranormal activity, including Nostell Priory, Ripon Workhouse Museum, a house on East Drive in Pontefract and Eccleshall Woods. Accounts range from whispered voices, footsteps and apparitions to poltergeist activity, strange lights and encounters with spectral figures. Eyewitness testimony is presented alongside local context and room for doubt, allowing the stories to remain reports, traditions and claims rather than settled fact.
