Everybody loves the thrill of hearing a ghost story, whether set in stately home or council flat. Why do we have this morbid fascination with the souls of the departed? What do these manifestations reflect of the different cultures that create them?

    Thank you very much, great program! I've been looking for all eight episodes in this series for ages (especially the 'Fairies' one), but without succes. Apparently you could buy a cd of them on the makers' website, but e-mails have gone unanswered for well over a year now. Does anyone have the other episodes? I'd be very grateful!
