Haunted Dorchester (Paperback)


With Dorchester's rich and varied history, you could be forgiven for thinking it must be one of the country's most haunted towns. There are plenty of stories to be told about apparent hauntings in and around the town, but do these relate directly to Dorchester's history or are they merely stories and legends passed down over the years? Many of the reports have remained unconfirmed by locals but the purpose of this book is not to prove or disprove the paranormal or the existence of ghosts. Instead, it is to disclose a little local history with each spooky story and tell the fascinating tales of haunted Dorchester, and let you, the readers, decide for yourselves. Discover the ghost of Thomas Hardy who restlessly walks near to his statue on Colliton Walk, or the phantom sobbing lady in the Dorset County Museum. This collection of ghostly stories and paranormal legends will scare and entice locals, as well as those who dare to visit one of England s most haunted towns.
