The Pluckley Psychic Historical Society by Grahame Peace
We are in 1919. The members of the Pluckley Psychic society have various issues to
discuss. Pluckley is known for it ghostly sightings and paranormal happenings and
even rare sightings of ectoplasm. One of the members of the society is Jasper who
himself died 400 years ago and thinks he is there until his passing is sorted out.
None of the others realise that he is a ghost and in this form he has several
advantages.”Our work at the Psychic History society is to increased our
knowledge of the paranormal world, spread the word of our services, provide
answers, and ease the minds of the living”.
A letter arrives addressed to a group of the members. Nothing too unusual
in that except this letter has been written but someone who dies many years
before and is asking for the societies assistance to find out more about what
happened around her death. As you can guess this is a lighthearted read.
This is the third in the series but happily stands alone (I hadn’t read the others).
There are two stories in this book, each around half of the book.
An entertaining very different read.

BLURB The Pluckley Psychic Historical Society is based in Pluckley, Kent, the most haunted village in England. Its founding members are the noted academic, historian, and Cambridge scholar Winston Hatherton, the white witch Florence Dearden, and the celebrated medium Jocasta Bradman. They are assisted by an 18th-century super-ghost called Jasper Claxton, although none of the society members are aware that Jasper is a ghost.
This is the third book in ‘The Ghost from the Molly-House’ series, and this book describes how the Psychic Historical Society was set up and goes back to the group's first two official cases in 1919, just after the end of the first world war. The first story, ‘The Jewellery Box’ involves a 16th-century jewellery box made from precious metals, which is found buried in a garden and reveals a 400-year-old mystery.
The second story, ‘The Book of Souls’ is set in Huddersfield, England, at a place called Jubilee Tower or Castle Hill, which was built to commemorate the diamond jubilee of Queen Victoria and is on the site of ancient bronze and iron age settlements dating back 4000 years. An old book of spells is found, and once opened, it appears to have released something ominous.
The Ghost from the Molly-House series is a collection of amusing paranormal mysteries, which will appeal to fans of history, period detective novels, tales of haunted houses, and all things that go bump in the night. Although this is the third book in the series, the novel can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story in its own right.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: I was born in Huddersfield in England where I have lived for most of my life.
I've always enjoyed writing, but I actually worked for many years in Mental Health. Since I retired writing has become my full-time occupation. My fictional book genres are humour, paranormal-historical-fantasy, mysteries, and fashion.
I'm currently working on my next book 'The Psychic Agency'. Which is the fourth in 'The Ghost from the Molly House' series, and will be out next year.
I don't write horror as such, my books tend to revolve more around the paranormal, hauntings, history, and the mysterious with some humour, so you won't find a lot of gore.
