Excerpt from the book: ""A ghost story should never end perfectly. That is my rule of thumb. After investigating ghost experiences for nearly thirty years, I realised that the finely polished stories told by storytellers and ""ghost walkers"" were exactly that - polished. In polishing stories we lose the personality of the haunted and indeed the haunter itself, that's why in my books, research papers and articles, I always maintain the original testaments and facts. The stories that I have collected for you now are rough diamonds, totally unpolished and any additions by myself are kept to a minimum and noted clearly. As I began to compile these stories I began to realise that I was actually becoming very affected by them and I am sure you will too. There is no doubt you will have your favourites once you have read the book, but mine are as follows. One of the standout stories for me is ""The Ghost with no mouth"" - a series of terrifying experiences in a modern house in which the witness's child describes the ghost as having ""no mouth and wears black boots but is naughty"". The experiences were very real to the family involved, and you wonder if ""Black Square"" continues to haunt this dwelling. Another story ""The Mystery Lady"" is downright creepy, a man encounters a strange woman on a deserted train station, she mumbles to herself and refuses to get on board the last train to Portsmouth. The next day he discovers that he was actually talking to a ghost! I spare you the details so as not to spoil the story, but you will certainly have a chill! In total there are fifty real experiences with ghosts and spirits included in this book and all direct from the witnesses themselves. None of them wanted their names published or any publicity about their experiences but all of them had the need to share and share what they have experienced.
