Book description
Greyfrair's Cemetery in Edinburgh has a centuries old reputation for
being haunted. Its gruesome history includes use as a mass prison,
headstone removal, witchcraft, bodysnatching, desecration, corpse
dumping and live burial.
In 1998, something new and inexplicable began occurring in the
graveyard. Visitors encountered 'cold spots', strange smells and
banging noises. They found themselves overcome by nausea, or cut and
bruised by something they could not see. Over the space of two years,
twenty-four people were knocked unconscious. Homes next to the
graveyard wall became plagued by crockery smashing, objects moving and
unidentified laughter. Witnesses to these attacks ran into the
hundreds. There were two exorcisms of the area. Both failed.
The section of Greyfriars where the attacks occurred is now chained
shut. The entity responsible has been named the 'Mackenzie
Poltergeist'. It has become one of the best-documented and most
conclusive paranormal cases in history.
The Poltergeist is still growing stronger.
This is its story.
