The Guide to Mysterious Glasgow

 

The Guide to Mysterious GlasgowThis is the essential guide to everything strange, marvellous, mysterious and paranormal in Glasgow, with a street-by-street description of everything bizarre and supernatural connected with the city.

As well a complete guide to all the city's gargoyles, legends and relics, it includes tours of the Necropolis, the Cathedral, museums both famous and little-known, and all of Glasgow's hidden archaeological wonders. Many forgotten aspects of the city's murky history are also here, including pseudo-scientific marvels such as the re-animation of a corpse in 1818 ('His chest immediately heaved! He drew breath!'), along with the 'man-monkeys' and leprechauns ('the only one ever captured alive') of the freakshows at the Britannia Music Hall. From the links between St Mungo with Merlin and werewolves, to the urban legends of the Glasgow Underground, it will transform the way you experience the city.

Containing more than 100 photographs and filled with countless tales of miracles, hauntings, curses, witchcraft, UFOs, big-cat sightings, vampires, murderers and bodysnatchers, this fascinating book will delight residents and visitors alike.
