About this listen
If someone told you they'd had an encounter with the supernatural, would you believe them?
Author David Paul Nixon has spent six years travelling Great Britain and beyond, listening to real people's ghost stories: tales of frightening and unsettling encounters with vengeful spirits, unexplained apparitions, and unclassifiable phenomena. They're deeply sinister, often-traumatic tales that have had a deep, often devastating impact upon people's lives.
This collection contains 11 of those stories: 11 tales that have stood up to scrutiny and could not simply be disproved. With each tale the listener must ask, "are these stories borne of lies or madness, or could they be the real thing?" Are they genuine encounters with phenomena beyond our understanding?

And the truth of what happened in the beautiful but eerie fell is locked in the memories of the tight-knit group of friends who took that fateful trip and the flimsy testimony of those living nearby.

On a leafy suburban street in Dublin, beautiful, poised Stella Greene lives with her successful husband, Matt. They're the perfect couple in every way, and Stella appears to have it all. Next door, at number 72, however, lives Rea Brady.

But appearances can be deceiving, and when Stella and Rea's worlds collide they realise they have much in common.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 67
The death of legendary jazz trumpeter Joss Moody exposes an extraordinary secret. Unbeknown to all but his wife Millie, Joss was a woman living as a man. The discovery is most devastating for their adopted son, Colman, whose bewildered fury brings the press to the doorstep and sends his grieving mother to the sanctuary of a remote Scottish village. Winner of the Guardian Fiction Prize, Trumpet by Jackie Kay is a starkly beautiful modern classic about the lengths to which people will go for love.
