The Ghosts of King's Lynn and West Norfolk

If one were to believe the literature, there would seem to be a striking lack of ghost stories in Kings Lynn. This is a gross misconception; in fact, the ancient shipping port and market town is an often overlooked repository of spectral tales and legends. Indeed, the same can be said of West Norfolk which would seem to have a very sparse ghostly population if one were to go by previously published books. The truth is very different as the many stories, most of them published here for the first time, will demonstrate! The town, in fact the whole area, is replete with many dozens of stories dating from the 18th century to the present day. Considering its small size, King's Lynn might even be one of the most haunted towns in the UK.This book details many stories that have accumulated over the decades; the ghost that terrorised pedestrians in the local park ... an evil entity that terrorised a family for over 30 years in Heacham ... a playful ghost that pranks employees at a shop in Fakenham ... the vengeful wraith that bemoaned the loss of a family heirloom ... and the antics of other worldly entities in care homes in the town.This massively expanded second edition, featuring an additional 200 pages has been completely updated and reworked and features hundreds of brand new reports of ghostly behaviour in the western extremities of Norfolk.
