The English see more ghosts than any other nation. From medieval times to
the present day, stories have been told about ghosts who avenge injustice,
souls who long for peace and spooks who just want to have fun. The English
Ghost is a treasure trove of such sightings; comical and scary, like all
the best ghost stories, these accounts, packed with eerie detail, range
from the moaning child that terrified Wordworth's nephew at Cambridge to
modern day hitchhikers on Blue Bell Hill.
