Synopsis
"Exploring Supernatural Wales" will take you to the haunted mountains, hills and woods of Wales. The book represents a journey through the Welsh countryside, examining places that evoke an ancient, primal fear of the unknown. If you're looking for romantic legends, friendly ghosts and fairy tales, then this isn't the book for you. Stories include "The Supernatural Mountain", "The Stone of Sacrifice", "A Midsummer Night's Nightmare" and many more. Think Harry Potter meets "The Blair Witch Project". The book is divided into three broad 'types' of countryside: The High Mountains, Lonely Moors & Sinister Hills and Haunted Woods & Wooded Lanes. You are actively encouraged to experience each supernatural location. So to help you get closer to the supernatural, a walk of 'terror and mystery' accompanies each of the 25 featured sites. The thoroughly researched routes include easy to use route maps and stunning photographs. The wide range of nerve-wracking stories gives the book a contemporary feel. You could encounter anything from UFOs, earth lights and monsters to devil-dogs, forest goblins and mountain phantoms.
Each story is described in some detail, so the book will appeal to both walkers and non-walkers alike. Until now, the vast majority of books on the supernatural have concerned themselves with benign tales of haunted castles, pubs, and other buildings, to which access is often difficult. "Exploring Supernatural Wales" is different. It is exclusively concerned with sinister 'wild' places that are freely accessible, day and night.
