Crown & Spectre: Myths. Legends, & Ghost Stories from The British Royal Family (Strange Britain) - 1809

When an institution dates back for over a millennium, it feels inevitable that it's bound to have picked up a few ghosts along the way. From the spectre of Queen Victoria to Mary Queen of Scots's picky ghost, and from allegations of a Royal Ripper connection to Oliver Cromwell’s deathbed visitations, we'll explore the haunted history of the Royal Family. We'll also be looking at a few other weird tales, including a feral child, lizards in the palace, as well as the alleged lycanthropic king. There'll also be stories of paranormal encounters from various royal residences dotted around the country, plus a punk rock conspiracy and the tragic tale of a forgotten woman in the life of Henry VIII. Accompanying the book are a series of illustrations that help bring history to life. With 2023 being the Coronation Year of King Charles III, what better time than the present is there to explore the stranger side of one of the world's most famous and powerful families? Featuring the following stories, along with many more, from across the history of the monarchy: Abdication, Americans, & The Ghost of Queen Victoria The King, The Car Park, & The Murders in the Tower The Sports Reporter, The Queen, & The Lizard People The King & The Foundling The Ghostmaker King The Queen & The Punk Rock Conspiracy The Prince, The Royal Surgeon, & The Ripper
