Overview

Oxford is a city of secrets. For centuries, scholars, kings, and martyrs have walked its streets-and some of them never left. Ghosts of the Oxford Colleges takes you on a terrifying tour through the oldest colleges in the English-speaking world. Journey back to the 13th century foundations of University College, Balliol, and Merton, where the echoes of the Civil War still ring out and the restless dead roam the quadrangles. Uncover the dark side of academic ambition in a city built on ancient burial grounds and monastic ruins. From the headless spirits of the Civil War to the Grey Ladies who weep in the chapels, these tales reveal a history written not in ink, but in blood.
