The Glastonbury Spirit : and Other Tales of the Supernatural

See all formats and editions

Stranded in a blizzard at an old inn in the Peak District a group of travellers gather by the fire, each with an extraordinary tale of the supernatural to tell, in which we encounter: a soldier suffering from PTSD, haunted by soldiers from World War 1; the last day of Jack the Ripper, who, over 120 years later, possesses the soul of his descendent, a corrupt Tory MP; Bela and Lugosi, a Goth couple who encounter death disco dancers and ghost sailors; a teacher, housebound after being savagely attacked, who falls to Google Earth and encounters cyber ghosts; metal thieves who incur the wrath of an iron giant; and finally a drop out student suffering from depression whose soul is saved by the beautiful spirit of Glastonbury Festival.

By twisted turns, spine-tingling, spooky, moving, enchanting and interlaced with dark humour throughout, The Glastonbury Spirit and other tales of the supernatural, takes the traditional English ghost story and drags it, kicking and screaming and howling, into the 21st Century.
