Sadly, no it isn't. But the text is online via the link on my site, and you can download a Word document of the book from there.

You might also be interested in checking out my podcast number 11, which features an interview with Geoff Holder and covers the launch of his 'Guide to Mysterious Glasgow', wherein are a few tales of Weegie weirdness and some contributions from the Glasgow Ghost club.

Just to say thanks for mentioning my site The Devil's Plantation. Hope you found it interesting. I certainly found plenty of weirdness when I shot it!

cheers,

Not much up on the Net about this subject surprisingly...just some out of date sites/pages.


Found some books....but need to get to heart of this matter.

Any one seen the Deil's Plantation site online about the geometry of Glasogw and Bonnyton mound? Watched it last night...interesting stuff.

haha excellent stuff! I was giving a talk on the paranormal in Glasgow Uni during the summer of 2008 when Geoff Holder approached me and asked if he could use some of my experiences in his new book, which he did. It's worth a read (not because me of) because of how many different areas of strangeness he covers.

THE LANGSIDE WALKWAY GHOST.

Postby MOLLY » Sat Dec 04, 2010 5:27 pm

Hi Everyone,,, I am so hoping some of our members may know the identity of The Langside Walkway Ghost. This story has been known to have started after WW2. I have personally seen this life like person whos appearance is a total anachronism. She rides an old red post office bicycle from Carmichael Place along the walkway to Millbrae Road and Langside Drive. My sighting was at 9.30am on Thurs 27th September 2001. I have been investigating this strange occurrence since then. Hope you can please help.
Cheers
Molly.

That's nonsense.

I murdered a curry last night and although I'll admit I saw no sign of it's ghost this morning, I definitely smelt the ectoplasm.
I like him ... He says "Okie Dokie!"

THE FLORIDA CINEMA.

Postby MOLLY » Tue Dec 07, 2010 1:40 am

Does anyone know the story behind the Florida Cinema ghost ? The cinema was demolished in the early 1960's and later rebuilt as The Beechwood pub. Its located off Aikenhead Road next to the bowling green.
