Ghost Walks

I have written three ghost walks now, Oldham, Saddleworth and now Burnley.

This is how I do it.

1. I usually go and visit the local reference library or museums and start to look for reported stories.  I would say 60% of the walks comes from local newspaper accounts.  From these stories we do our own enquiries about the people or the buildings involved and try and establish a story.  
2. We ask local people if they have their own stories to tell.  These have come from many sources and their story always begins " I don't believe in ghosts, but..."  These have come from postal workers who saw a strange woman in a shop window, to a girl who had a strange experience on leaving an empty car park.
3. A small percentage of the stories come from Psychics who will visit the walks and usually pick up other spirits present and tell another story. 

Then all you have to do is tell them, well.
