Christmas is such a paradoxical season, on one hand, it's a time of family gatherings and the giving of presents. Yet it is a time of increased curiosity into the strange and weird stories that literally haunt us. In writing this book, I decided to explore and evaluate some of the incredible ghost stories that litter the archives of libraries of Britain and the United States. Out of the hundreds of anecdotes and references that I uncovered I have brought to you a collection of Christmas ghost stories from as close as the original sources as possible. Many of the stories have never seen print since the original experiences.

Many of the stories have never seen print since the original experiences. I am pleased to share with you the 'lost ghosts' of the Missouri Wild Man, where the ghost of an eight-foot man terrorises a small township for several years, the Clanking Ghost that appeared to dozens of ghost hunters in a park outside of London and twenty-eight more scary and unusual ghost stories that happened at Christmas.
