About the author
Jason Day is a journalist, broadcaster, and paranormal investigator whose books focus on the folklore and reported hauntings of English towns and counties. Haunted Scunthorpe (History Press, 2010) draws on his own case files to trace the paranormal history of his home town, while Paranormal Essex tours sites across one of England's oldest counties, including the reputedly haunted Borley and an account of an RAF pilot's UFO encounter. Both books combine local history with first-hand investigation, structured as guides readers can use to visit the locations described. Day's work sits within the regional ghost-hunting genre common to History Press's catalogue, written for readers interested in local hauntings presented with specific place names and reported incidents rather than general treatments of the paranormal.
