Mark Rees releases third book in Paranormal Wales series: Paranormal Swansea and Gower

PARANORMAL SWANSEA AND GOWER, the third book in the PARANORMAL WALES series, is now available in all good bookshops, both online and in-store. Following the success of PARANORMAL CARDIFF (2023), Mark Rees invites you on a spine-chilling journey through the haunted history of Swansea and Gower.

Paranormal Swansea and Gower: A Haunted History

Paranormal Swansea and Gower by Mark Rees

Swansea has long been a place of magic and mystery, making it the perfect setting for ghost stories. Ruined castles, haunted by ghostly spirits, dot the landscape. Meanwhile, the golden sands of Gower are steeped in Arthurian legend and tales of smugglers and pirates.

Throughout history, Swansea has witnessed much upheaval—from Viking invasions to the devastating three-night blitz by the Luftwaffe during the Second World War. These events continue to haunt the area, adding to its eerie reputation.

Paranormal Swansea and Gower takes you on a journey to dozens of haunted locations, from popular tourist spots to hidden gems. Each place has its own chilling tale. You’ll hear about the spirits of ancient soldiers who reportedly wage war on the beaches at dusk. You’ll also learn of Gothic ruins guarded by terrifying apparitions. One story features the wraith of a murderer who haunts his former neighbours. Another tells of the Swansea Devil, a cursed work of art lurking in a local museum.

Whether you are a sceptic or a believer, this book gives you an in-depth look at the supernatural history of Swansea and Gower. It will captivate ghost hunters and intrigue anyone interested in the unexplained.
