  This collection of stories and twice-told tales from around Somerset lifts the shrouds off many new and legendary hauntings, including some spine-tingling experienes as recounted to the author by Somerset townsfolk, villagers and visitors. Researching historical and contemporary sources. Haunted Somerset reveals its uniquely supernatural heritage from a coffin on the road, eerie Bath, the phantoms of Sedgemoor, Dunster Castle's ghostly sightings, headless horsemen, animal apparitions and Exmoor spectres ... and if these are not enough to curdle your nervous system, a screaming skull and the grisly haunted associated with a curate murderered by some of his parishoners who was rumoured to have been cannibalised!
