This imagination lies at the heart of Ghosts that\u003cbr\u003e Never Haunted Christ Church.\u003cbr\u003e With the exception of the story of the revival of Anne Greene, a welldocumented\u003cbr\u003e true story from 1650, and the recent 'Ghosts that might well haunt\u003cbr\u003e Christ Church', all the tales in this book are a curious mixture of genuine\u003cbr\u003e historical fact, legend, and fiction. For while many of the ghosts in these tales\u003cbr\u003e may not have haunted Christ Church--or at least not in the way described--\u003cbr\u003e the historical setting which they haunted is largely true. The names of real\u003cbr\u003e historical figures and Christ Church buildings which either still exist or were\u003cbr\u003e later demolished to be replaced by more recent ones all intermix to form an\u003cbr\u003e entertaining combination of fact and fiction.\u003cbr\u003e Over the centuries, Christ Church has displayed three notable features: the\u003cbr\u003e Cathedral Church, with its Canons and clerical dons; a rich and glorious\u003cbr\u003e musical tradition; and great distinction in scientific and medical research.\u003cbr\u003e They all appear, in various guises, in these ghost stories. Clergymen, \u003cbr\u003e choristers, organists, chemists, scientists, heroic College porters, inventors, \u003cbr\u003e animals, and anatomists are all there. Yet whether a tale be heart-warming, \u003cbr\u003e grisly, or downright horrific, each resolves into its own positive ending. For\u003cbr\u003e Christ Church has never been a bleak or negative place, preferring good\u003cbr\u003e fellowship to angst and misery; and so with its ghosts. For at the end of the\u003cbr\u003e day, peace comes to all.\u003cbr\u003e So read on, and prepare to be affrighted, amused, and delighted!\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 140\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.33 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 15, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45439718654031,"sku":"9780852449462","price":24.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/3083\/3487\/files\/gbKw2EbZLp9780852449462.webp?v=1780404930","url":"https:\/\/lumaryon.com\/products\/ghosts-that-never-haunted-christ-church-a-collection-of-curious-tales-about-the-house-paperback","provider":"Lumaryon Universal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
