The research is pretty much all finished for the new book about St Andrews and it’s ghosts. Time to start writing, and I’m looking forward to this one! Spectral monks, nuns and abbots, phantom pipers, heartbroken widows, women of great beauty and women badly mutilated; ghostly figures on the golf courses and horse drawn carriages in the narrow streets, underground passages, spirit animals and many people who have lived and worked in the towns landmarks and who have not yet left, angels and possibly even a demon, they will all be included! Several books have covered St Andrews supernatural side before, but I hope to make this book the most complete yet, with not just the ghost stories, but the history behind them, all richly illustrated with numerous photographs.

New Release
Posted in Uncategorized with tags book, Ghost, haunted, History Press, kirkcaldy, Scotland, Spooky, supernatural, Waterstones on September 2, 2014 by gstewartauthorAfter a successful launch event at Waterstones in Kirkcaldy, Haunted Kirkcaldy is now available in book stores and online. This was the first time I have done a launch night, and the nerves were kicking in, but the audience were great and all seemed to go well. The staff at Waterstones in Kirkcaldy were also very supportive, even setting up a spooky theme in the shop!! I can’t thank everyone enough.
It’s back to work now on the next title. I have several started, but need to now focus on getting one finished!
