In this unbelievably funny collection of tales and interviews from the little-known English village of Shawley Nott, you'll discover the delights of: Ouija Board Confusion: "There have been accusations of glass-shoving and the village Indian restaurant owner was banned after the question 'What shall we do to smooth our path to the spirit world?' brought forth the answer 'Try a tandoori'." * Lord Harbinger's haunted cellar: [The paranormal investigators] greeted Lord Harbinger by saying, 'We love you; you're our best friend' and 'Do you have an aspirin?' "My vintage claret has disappeared!" he fumed. "Paranormal phenomena at last!" yelled one of the investigators, and then fell over. * Not to mention zombies, odd traditions, vampires, seances, hypnotists, cream teas, mad scientists, Dr Grogg and Figgy (his psychic hamster) and, of course, Madame Shortbread, who reads the future in crushed biscuits. * Jeff Wiseman is an experienced journalist, writer and scriptwriter, specializing in comedy.
