Publisher's Synopsis
Lord Halifax began his "ghost book" in the later years of the 19th century, encouraging visitors to his ancient house at Hickleton to record for posterity their favourite true ghost stories which they had heard recounted or even, in some cases, been directly involved in. This book includes chillers such as "Man in the Iron Cage", "The Renishaw Coffin", "The Woman in White", "The Corpse Downstairs", "The Mad Butler", "The Monk of Bolton Abbey", "The Vampire Cat", "The Shrouded Watcher" and "The Bloody Hand".
