With rolling hills, quaint countryside villages and a historic city as its capital, County Durham is a stunning region to behold and it is truly haunted. Join the North East's foremost ghost hunter, Darren W. Ritson on this spine-chilling tour. Ghostly galloping steeds silently make their way across the moors and hilltops. Priests and monks haunt religious buildings and poltergeists plague people in their homes. Old pubs and inns are bursting at the seams with long-dead patrons, and ancient battles are seemingly being silently fought again. Whichever way you turn in County Durham, you can be sure a ghost is lurking nearby. With a foreword from one of the leading lights in paranormal investigation, Scotland's own Malcolm Robinson, this book is sure to delight ghost enthusiasts, paranormal investigators and anyone else with an interest in all things preternatural.

In December 2005 a family began to experience poltergeist-like phenomena in their home. Slowly but steadily the phenomena escalated, and in July 2006 the authors were asked to investigate. This book is a chilling diary of an ongoing poltergeist case which the authors believe rivals any previously documented.

Newcastle East Through Time is a nostalgic look back on the historical past of a small but wonderful aspect of Tyneside. Drawing mainly on the sources Byker born photographer Walter Ritson(who happens to be the author's father), and the Newcastle Libraries and Information Service, this book documents the east end of Newcastle's bygone days from the late 1800s to the 1970s in picture format.Many buildings in this book are now sadly confined to the realms of history and are no longer standing, such as Spillers Flour Mill and Hawthorn Leslie's, but fabulous images remain to remind us of what once was. Modern day equivalent images show us what has taken their place and show how in the last hundred years or so just how times and places have changed. This is a captivating and varied assortment of images that reveals the area's rich heritage.

From eyewitness accounts of unexplained sightings to the search for evidence of ghosts, this book features over fifty chilling tales of ghostly encounters from around Wearside.
