Paul Weatherhead explores the forgotten, weird history of seasonal ghost hoaxes and strange phantom panics from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. These true Christmas ghost stories are comical and bizarre, sometimes dark and tragic, as ghost hunters turn vigilantes, horrible murders echo down the centuries, and festive ghost hunts descend into madcap drunken riots.
