Ten Cathedral Ghosts by Nicholas Orme

Acester (known as Ayster) is one of England’s oldest cathedrals. It is also home to a startling assortment of ghosts. They include a bishop’s skeleton, a mischievous imp, a Jacobean actor, an eighteenth-century murderer, a woman in a mirror, a legless and an eyeless ghost, a mysterious chorister, and an ugly spider. Meanwhile, alongside the ghosts, the busy life of a modern cathedral goes on, spiced by the sparrings between a rather vague Dean and a very acerbic Canon. This is a book for all who love stories of ghosts and clergy life in the Church of England.

Nicholas Orme is a leading British historian. He has written more than thirty books, including Medieval Children, Medieval Schools, The History of England’s Cathedrals, and the recent, highly praised, Going to Church in Medieval England. He is also the author of White Bird Flying: historical stories for children.
