It seems odd to be reading about ghosts on such a sunny, spring-like day!

A wonderful anthology of short ghost stories from England, all allegedly true, ranging in time from the 8th century to the 20th. Some are direct quotes while others are retold.
Though I am a sceptic, while reading through this lively collection I found myself mistaking ordinary objects in the dark for shadowy, otherworldly figures. I can only attribute that effect to the vivid nature of the accounts selected by Ackroyd. A perfect October read.
If you're looking for some good ghost stories this season, I've got the book for you.
