Lord Halifax’s Ghost Book

One of the hobbies of Charles Lindley Wood, 2nd Viscount Halifax, was the collection of gruesome tales of the supernatural. These stories were told to him by friends and acquaintances—and even sent to him by strangers—and he duly recorded them in a book over the course of his long, ninety-four-year life. This is the complete collection in one volume.

Included in this recording are the following tales:

• “The Harper of Inverary”
• “The Man in the Iron Cage”
• “The Secret of Glamis”
• “The Grey Man of Wrotham”
• “The Haunting of Hinton Ampner”
• “The Death of Lord Tyrone”
• “The Passenger with the Bag”
• “Marche!”
• “The Man in a Silk Dress”
• “The Strange Experience of the Reverend Spencer Nairne”
• “The Renishaw Coffin”
• “The Butler in the Corridor”
• “The Telephone at the Oratory”
• “The Strangling Woman”
• and other stories …
