Unexplained lights drift over fields and marshes. Drivers meet figures on lonely verges, while ordinary family homes acquire knocks, moving objects and ghosts with an alarming disregard for household routine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Eerie but True: Britain After Midnight, Robin Wickens investigates twenty strange British cases through witness accounts, local history, folklore and practical explanation. Famous hauntings sit beside lesser-known encounters, with every story examined for what was originally reported, what later retellings added and what evidence remains.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWitty, atmospheric and carefully balanced, the book is a journey for believers, sceptics and anyone who has ever looked twice at something standing beyond the headlights.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBritain turns out the lights.

A light moves across an empty field without revealing its source. A driver sees someone waiting on a lonely verge, glances in the mirror and finds the road deserted. Inside ordinary homes, knocks answer questions, objects move and families give unseen disturbances names because terror becomes slightly more manageable when it sounds like someone who might have borrowed a ladder.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEerie but True: Britain After Midnight is a witty, atmospheric journey through twenty of Britain’s strangest reported encounters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobin Wickens follows the stories back through witness testimony, local newspapers, folklore, psychical research and historical records. Each case asks what was actually reported, which details appeared later and whether weather, landscape, perception, memory or human intervention can explain what happened.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe answers are often messy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome mysteries weaken under examination. Others reveal how legends grow around genuine fear, grief or uncertainty. A few remain stubbornly difficult—the sort of stories that return when the road is dark and the next house is several miles away.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInside, readers will encounter phantom coaches, mysterious lights, roadside figures, unexplained knocks, disruptive poltergeists and Britain’s most inconvenient household ghosts. The journey concludes with a responsible guide to unusual encounters, an examination of the natural ingredients of hauntings, a clear glossary and twenty questions for assessing supernatural claims.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRespectful towards witnesses, sceptical of convenient legends and never entirely safe from dry British humour, Eerie but True: Britain After Midnight is for readers who enjoy folklore, unusual history and mysteries that do not collapse at the first sensible question.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRead it before midnight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfterwards, every sound on the landing becomes your responsibility.\u003c\/span\u003e  \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003ctable style=\"margin-bottom:20px\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eASIN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eB0HFB411R9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eRobs Books\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccessibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eLearn more\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e17 Aug. 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e1st\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFile size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e8.7 MB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScreen Reader\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSupported\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced typesetting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eEnabled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eX-Ray\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eNot Enabled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWord Wise\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eEnabled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrint length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e646 pages\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePage Flip\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eEnabled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReading age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e15 - 17 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e768 in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eHistorical Reference\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1,444 in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eHistory References\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e33,651 in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSocial \u0026amp; Cultural History\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Robs Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58552562254168,"sku":"B0HFB411R9","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/9768\/1496\/files\/818VAE_kTgL._SL1500.jpg?v=1790205984","url":"https:\/\/robsbooks.com.co\/products\/eerie-but-true-britain-after-midnight-1","provider":"Robs Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
