Synopsis

Uncover fascinating paranormal activity on this chilling, nerve-wracking global tour of over 50 paranormal locations, with a brilliant foreword from award-winning writer, Danny Robins.

Set out on a uniquely dark armchair journey and witness the shocking supernatural events, ghosts and unexplained phenomena that have captivated humankind for as long as we have told stories to each other, looked to the skies, and wondered whether we really are alone…

The paranormal places include:

The Chase Vault, a 200-year-old crypt in Barbados with moving coffins
Charleville Castle, the haunted castle in Ireland used by secret societies
The witch market (El Mercado De Las Brujas) in La Paz, Bolivia
Gunnuhver Mud Pool in Iceland, infected by the spirit of a maddened criminal
Turkmenistan’s Door to Hell, an infernal crater still blazing after half a century

Legends about spirits that rise from the dead, places where the crops don’t grow or sites where strange lights are seen at night… glaciers that bleed, ghost towns, crumbling castles, disused (and active) cemeteries, eerie forests and freak nature patterns…

This cursed collection covers these sites in all their mysterious glory, and recounts what happened, what continues to happen, and what may explain these phenomena. Hauntings, aliens, and all manner of paranormal activity are covered, in manmade as well as natural surroundings.

You may not want to read it when you are alone…
