London's shadowed alleyways, sleepy pubs and misty open spaces are alive with the ghosts of the famous and the forgotten, the lovelorn and the loveless, the damned and the damnable."Haunted London" takes the intrepid ghost seeker on a truly hair-raising journey to some of the capital's spookiest places. From the chilling manifestations at the infamous 50 Berkeley Square to the eternal restlessness of Jack the Ripper's victims, Richard Jones, professional tour guide and inveterate ghost hunter, leaves no haunted house unmentioned, revealing the intriguing tales behind the lost souls who haunt them.
