Haunted Lambeth is a collection of real-life stories of apparitions and poltergeists from all across the London borough of Lambeth. Included are the ghost stories of Lambeth Palace, the terrifying tradition of the "Tomb of the Tradescants," a ghost at The Old Vic Theatre, the dream house that haunted the entertainer Roy Hudd, supernatural echoes of Waterloo’s Necropolis Railway, the ghosts of Ruth Ellis, and others at Streatham’s Caesar’s Nightclub. These stories have been collected and researched over many years, and come from a variety of sources including original newspaper articles, books and, as often as possible, personal communication with people directly involved.
I just felt like a spooky read!! I enjoy these books, especially when I am familiar with the area. What I particularly like is that the stories are not sensationalised, but highly readable with room for any doubt. I read this in one afternoon. Good book.
Thoroughly researched, just like his other works, and pretty comprehensive. He asks some interesting questions, maintaining enough impartiality to be convincing, while not losing himself to a "Most Haunted" style of credulity.
Well worth a read, and keeping with you if you're in London!
