Publisher's Synopsis
From ancient mysteries to modern weirdness, this fascinating volume contains countless strange and terrifying places and episodes from across Dundee and Angus. Anyone with an interest in the paranormal will be delighted to find here a full history of all of Dundee's witches, UFO and Big Cat sightings, as well as Gothic horrors such as the man who claimed to be Jack the Ripper, the genesis of Frankenstein, a 'vampire' murder, and an outbreak of modern zombies. From the tramp discovered - still breathing - inside the belly of the famous Tay Whale, to the Dundee lass who became queen of a cannibal tribe, it will surprise, entertain and delight residents, visitors and lovers of the Fortean alike. With more than fifty modern and archive illustrations and photographs, no Dundee bookshelf is complete without it.
