Ghosts, Murders & Scandals of Worcestershire by Anne Bradford
This is Anne Bradford's ninth collection of true ghost stories from the Worcestershire area, she has been collecting eye-witness accounts of strange events since 1992, when she was inspired by a Victorian collection of ghost stories in the archives of her local library.
Late on Christmas Eve a few years ago, one of the locals had a fright when he was driving from Cookhill to AlcesterHe says: "Suddenly, I saw what looked like a nurse in a grey cape with a hood. She stepped right out in front of me. There was no chance of my stopping, I screamed and hit the brakes. I stopped and went back to have a look but there was no trace of anything. There wasn't a mark on the car. I'm not certain what it was but it certainly wasn't solid as I went straight through it and there was no bang. I have very good lights on my car, I have very good eyesight and I'm not the kind of person to believe in that sort of thing. If tins had happened after I had been to the pub you could understand it but it happened when I was on my way to the pub. I found it quite upsetting. You think you have had an accident. A friend of ours is a nurse and she told us that she was working at the hospital in Worcester when a lorry driver was taken in who had an accident at that same spot. He said that he had swerved to avoid a grey nun. The strange thing was, that this also happened on Christmas Eve but the following year."
Anne Bradford has written and published nine collections of true ghost stories in Worcestershire and has co-authored another three for the Midlands with Barrie Roberts. She has also written three local history books and published a fourth.
