Ancient Ghosts

There are few things more in common across cultures than the belief in ghosts. Ghosts inhabit something of the very essence of what it is to be human.

They have inspired, fascinated and frightened us for centuries - yet most of us are only familiar with the vengeful apparitions of Shakespeare, or the ghastly spectres haunting the pages of 19th-century Gothic literature. But their origins are much, much older.
