Ghost Encounters

"Everyone assumes that ghosts are hostile. Actually, most of them are not." You either believe in the existence of ghosts or you don't. But when you share a home with several companionable spirits, or discover benign ghosts in public places who appear as real as any living person, scepticism is abandoned and the myth that ghosts are to be feared is realised as nonsense.

Here in North Devon, spirits from the past might be encountered where they would be expected - on battle sites, in old pubs and inns, walking the corridors of old houses - but they can also be found beside busy roads and even keeping an eye on a modern car park. Kathy and Mum Helen Hollick have come across several such departed souls; in this book, mother and daughter share their personal experiences, dispelling the belief that spirits are to be feared. (Includes a bonus of two short stories and photographs connected to North Devon.)
