These spooky ghost tales from one of Britain’s most ancient counties are vividly retold by local storyteller Janet Dowling. Their origins lost in the oral tradition, these stories are as eerie and mysterious as the windswept moorland, wild shorelines and rugged landscapes from which they derive. Here you will find stories of a voice beyond the grave, a ghost on the pivot between heaven and hell, and the spectres of Viking princes on moonlit roads. Richly illustrated by Vicky Jocher with original drawings, these atmospheric tales are perfect for reading aloud in front of a roaring fire or alone under the covers on dark, stormy nights.
JANET DOWLING has been a professional storyteller for over fifteen years and has travelled the world to tell tales, run workshops, and collect local folk tales. She runs the Devon Storytellers group, has an MA in Creative Writing, is the author of Surrey Folk Tales, and has written several articles on storytelling. She lives in Sidmouth, Devon.
