Synopsis "Poltergeists of Britain. A Collection of British Hauntings"
Traditional ghosts are echoes of the past-sorrowful spirits doomed to pace castle battlements or weep in abandoned churchyards. But there is another, far more terrifying entity that plagues the British Isles. The Poltergeist. Translating literally to "noisy spirit," these aggressive, intelligent forces do not care about the veil between the living and the dead. They tear it down. From levitating furniture and spontaneous fires to violent physical assaults and flying knives, Britain boasts some of the most fiercely documented, terrifying poltergeist outbreaks in recorded history. In Poltergeists of Britain, you will step inside the most actively hostile homes, pubs, and ruins across England, Scotland, and Wales. This chilling collection documents the physics-defying terror that baffled police, terrified clergymen, and sent famous paranormal investigators running for the door. Brace yourself and discover:The Enfield Poltergeist: The highly documented 1970s London haunting where heavy furniture slid across the floor, and a demonic voice spoke through an 11-year-old girl.30 East Drive (The Black Monk): The claustrophobic Yorkshire home where a violent, shadowy entity dragged a teenager up the stairs by her neck.Greyfriars Kirkyard (The Mackenzie Poltergeist): The Edinburgh tomb where modern tourists are routinely left with deep scratches, burns, and bite marks.Borley Rectory: The gothic Essex mansion, famously dubbed "the most haunted house in England," plagued by flying bricks and desperate messages scrawled on the walls.Perfect for fans of paranormal investigations, true ghost stories, and British history, this book pulls back the curtain on the aggressive entities that refuse to be ignored. Duck. Something is flying toward your head.
