Welcome to the Boneyard Book Journal
In the dimly lit corners of the ancient library, there lurked a creature unlike any other - a book consuming ghoul. With an insatiable appetite for knowledge, this shadowy figure roamed the endless rows of shelves, its sharp eyes scanning for its next literary feast.
Pages rustled as the ghoul snatched a tome from the shelf, clutching it tightly to its chest. The smell of aged paper and ink filled the air as the creature delved into the words, devouring each sentence with fervor. It was said that the mere touch of its fingertips could bring life to the most mundane of texts, breathing magic into the words on the page.
Whispers among the library patrons spoke of encounters with the elusive book ghoul - some claimed to have seen flashes of its glowing eyes peering out from behind tall stacks of books, others swore they heard its low, guttural growls echoing through the halls late into the night.
But despite its eerie reputation, the book ghoul was not feared by those who truly understood its nature. For within its dark, shrouded form lay a profound love for the written word, a relentless thirst for the stories and secrets held within the covers of each book it devoured.
And so the book ghoul continued its endless quest through the labyrinthine corridors of the library, forever in search of new tales to consume, new worlds to explore. A guardian of knowledge, a keeper of stories - the enigmatic ghoul remained a mysterious and fascinating figure, forever entwined with the boundless magic of the written word.

Spirits Behind Bars: The Haunting of Shepton Mallet Prison and the Skirrid Inn
Book overview from blurb on back of paperback:
For hundreds of years, weary travelers have gathered at the fireside of the Skirrid Inn, one of the oldest pubs in Wales. For generations, landlords at the inn left a cup of ale outside overnight as an offering to ward off dark spirits. Upstairs, judges once held court, and it is claimed that more than 180 convicted criminals were hanged on the Skirrid's main staircase, where an executioner's noose still dangles as a grisly reminder.
Crossing the border into England brings up to Shepton Mallet, a prison with an equally dark history. Built in 1625, HMP Shepton Mallet was used by the US military during World War II to incarcerate their most hardened felons. Eighteen American soldiers were hanged in the execution chamber. Small wonder it is reputed to be Britain's most haunted prison, replete with stories of restless spirits and a phantom lady in white.
