DESCRIPTION
A fabulous collection of ghostly hauntings in Burton-upon-Trent. It takes the reader into the world of ghosts and spirits in the town, following their footsteps into the unknown. Anyone familiar with the town of Burton upon Trent may associate it with one thing above all else – brewing. Hardly surprising when you consider that at its peak, around a quarter of all of the beer in the UK was produced here. What many people don’t realise, however, is that this Staffordshire town has a diverse history that dates back to the Roman period. Later, it had the most important monastery in Staffordshire, and its medieval bridge was the scene of two significant battles in 1322 and again during the English Civil War. Burton was also home to the powerful Paget family and the Peel family who played a significant role in the Industrial Revolution. It should be no surprise that the echoes of this town’s long and varied past can be heard and seen in the form of countless ghost sightings. These range from fleeting glimpses of opaque figures crossing roads and the chiming of bells from churches long since demolished, to the more sinister visions of murderous monks, and of the recently deceased rising from their graves to torment the townspeople. Paranormal Burton upon Trent takes you on a spooky tour from the heart of Burton to the surrounding parishes of Repton, Hanbury, Newton Solney and Church Gresley in which readers will encounter exclusive reports from real paranormal investigators who have spent over a decade studying this town’s many spirits, and uncover historical events including the accident that resulted in the world’s largest ever man-made non-nuclear explosion. The book combines well-known local legends with first-hand encounters from current residents to provide the most in-depth account of Burton’s haunted heritage to date.
