Haunted Yorkshire

Yorkshire is steeped in history and culture and it’s little wonder that it has laid claim to some of the world’s greatest ghost stories. Explore some of the strangest tales of ghosts, ghouls and demons and recount eyewitness reports in unedited form. Packed with eerie locations, folklore and local history, discover Yorkshire as you’ve never seen it before. Hear about Old Bess, who haunts the kitchens at Nostell Priory, or ‘Are you there, Emily?’, the ghostly voice of a man trapped in eternity, looking for his love. Venture into Eccleshall Woods and learn about the demonic Leshy that resides there, or be spooked by the Padfoot that wanders Fore Lane in Sowerby Bridge after dark. Does a ghost really haunt the Low Valley Arms and does the Green lady really wander the streets of Great Kelk? AUTHOR: Nick Tyler has a keen interest in writing, reading and the paranormal.
