Haunted Surrey - Paperback

by Rupert Matthews (Author)

From heart-stopping accounts of apparitions, manifestations, and related supernatural phenomena to first-hand encounters with spectres and spirits, this collection of stories contains new and well-known spooky tales from around the county of Surrey. Drawing on historical and contemporary sources, the author has scaled the length and breadth of the county to include accounts of the ghostly monks at Newark Priory, the eerie poltergeist at the George at Chertsey, an ethereal woman in white who haunts the Swan Green at Leatherhead, the spirit riders of a horse and carriage at Hogs Back, the ghost of Bishop Andrews at Cheam Church, apparitions of ghosts in 1930s clothing at Kenley Railway Station, and the phantom commissionaire in the old cinema at Sutton - and many more!
