Most of us love a good ghost story, but for the staff of Britainâs National Trust, the job is sometimes a matter of balancing the normal with the paranormal!
The houses and castles of Britainâs National Trust are teeming with ghost storiesâ"eyewitness accounts of the spirits of former owners, staff, even pets haunting their former homes. Elizabeth, Duchess of Lauderdale is said to wander solemnly through Ham House in Surrey, sometimes accompanied by the ghost of her beloved spaniel. Anne Boleyn is reported to travel to Norfolkâs Blickling Hall in a coach driven by a headless horsemanâ"and carrying her own head in her lap. The ruins of many historic houses and castles are similarly alive with ghoulish tales. In Ghosts, cultural historian Siân Evans interviews those who work and live in these National Trust houses. She also traces the origins of the myths and legends long associated with these haunted homesâ"comparing them with contemporary accounts to yield! some very chilling results.
