TAKE A SPOOKY LOOK BEHIND BLACKPOOL'S FACADE

NEW BOOK PUBLISHED LOOKING AT THE SPOOKY SIDE OF BLACKPOOL

Supernatural Events is pleased to be associated with a new book highlighting the haunted heritage of Blackpool and the Fylde Coast. Stephen Mercer, founder of the ghost hunting company, based in the resort, was asked to assist in the research of the book; look out for some scary stories from the spiritual home of Supernatural Events... The Grand Theatre!

In the daylight hours of the tourist season Blackpool is a place that assaults the senses: bright lights, loud music, strong smells, boisterous crowds. All is vivid, full of life and fun, drowning out the subtle, the gentle, the quiet. But what happens when the funseekers leave, when the amusements, shops and attractions close? In the eerie peace that is left behind, another sense entirely comes into play, as hairs stand on end, ears become attuned to stranger sounds, flesh begins to creep and restless souls make their presence felt.

This is the twilight town documented in a new book, Blackpool’s Haunted Heritage, by ghost hunter and TV presenter Jason Dexter Karl and haunted hall owner Adele Yeomans. From theatres, pubs, attractions, houses and halls in Blackpool – and the Fylde – come tales of ghosts, screamers, poltergeists and unexplained happenings, as the area’s most haunted hotspots are exposed.

Timed to entertain readers on the long, dark nights of winter, this great new title will enthral all those who love a good ghost story. Full of local characters and information, Blackpool’s Haunted Heritage is perfect for anyone with an interest in Lancashire’s famous seaside resort, as well as Lytham, St Annes, Fleetwood, Singleton and other parts of the Fylde.
