Sobre IBD

In 1893 a newspaper report gave details of a discovery so remarkable it stopped the breath of a nation. The most famous and prolific ghost in St Andrews is the 'White Lady. Anyone familiar with the town is more than likely aware of her, but how much does anyone really know about her? Following research spanning five decades, this is the most comprehensive investigation there has been into a fascinating St Andrews mystery involving a ghost and a chamber of corpses that sparked a wave of national correspondence. All the articles, interviews and letters published between 1860 and 1925 have been brought together here for the first time, alongside many previously unpublished reports of sightings and associated experiences of the White Lady. Collectively, what they reveal is far more intriguing and complex than any have realised. Welcome to a St Andrews Mystery.
