Paranormal County Durham From the publisher’s website: County Durham, also known as ‘the Land of Prince Bishops’, is an area of outstanding beauty primarily recognized for its lead mining and its farming industries. With a combination of rolling hills, quaint little countryside villages, townships and a historic city as its capital, County Durham is a stunning region. The ghosts here are aplenty and they are festooned far and wide. We have ghostly galloping steeds and harrowing horseman silently making their way across the moors and hilltops; priests, monks and god-fearing men eerily frequent the many religious buildings that are scattered hither and thither around the county; poltergeists plague people and their places; old pubs and inns are bursting at the seams with long-dead patrons and ancient battles once fought here are being silently fought again much to the bewilderment of those that see them or indeed, hear them. So wherever you endeavour to go in the wonderful County Durham, whichever way you turn, you can be sure a ghost will lurk in almost every corner.
