What a fool I am! I completely forgot to alert people to John Stoker’s excellent short article on the spooks of perhaps the UK’s most haunted theatre (of many): the Theatre Royal in Bath. This a really starry article. As well as ghosts, it features the likes of Leslie Crowther, Dame Anna Neagle and Michael Bentine, who was a friend of John’s. The article also features one of the strangest phenomena in Britain – the mysterious butterfly which predicts successful shows.

About UncannyUK
I am the editor of Uncanny UK (www.uncannyuk.com), a website devoted to British ghosts and folklore. I am the former editor of Paranormal Magazine and the author five books on Welsh folklore. Just launched Apparition Developments, first product of which is Ghost Finder London - an app plotting 300 haunted sites in London for iPhone. I'm a highly experienced journalist and corporate copywriter. I'm an enthusiast on the subjects of UK folklore, the supernatural and antiquities and am fond of old horror and sci-fi movies, cult TV such as Dr Who and I collect Victorian/Edwardian magazines. I also enjoy weird art and macabre literature by the likes of M R James, E F Benson, Algernon Blackwood, W Hope-Hodgson, H P Lovecraft etc. I live in North Wales, which is a very spooky place.
