If you check out the Ancient Origins Members Only site, you'll find my article Confessions of a Teenage GhostHunter: Keeping the St Mark's Eve Vigil & Looking for the Ghost of Sir Walter Calverley – complete with the schoolboy rhyme to raise his ghost Old Calverley, Old Calverley, I have thee by the ears, I’ll cut thee into collops, unless thee appears!

Charles Christian is one of 12 guest authors included in this 3rd anniversary just published by Ancient Origins. Christian's chapter looks at the history and legends surrounding St Edmund, the Saxon king and martyr who later became England's first patron saint. But did this saintly monarch also return from the dead to slay a Viking chieftain? The book is free to readers of the Ancient Origins website and app although you do need to register.
