First published in 1894, this book explores the long history of ghostly encounters, suggesting that the discipline of folklore should be extended to include such tales. Lang's study covers the grand sweep of supernatural history, from ancient spiritual beliefs to the legends and scepticism surrounding the infamous Cock Lane ghost.
