Forget the ghostly rider - it's time for the horse to take center stage. This collection features mysterious equine spirits from around the world, but especially from Britain and Ireland. Here you'll find tales of spectral steeds galloping without riders, as well as horse spirits and supernatural shape-shifting horses. Meet Ireland's deadly Yalla Horse, the White Devil of California, and the elusive white horse of South Africa. Learn, too, about England's mischievous brag and colt-pixy: horse shapechangers that belong as much to the realm of fairy as to that of phantoms. These stories - some fictional folktales, some reported facts, some glorious misunderstandings - cover a range of uncanny equine encounters. But the message is clear: if you hear ghostly hoofbeats in the night, don't stand around waiting for the horse to appear. Your best bet is to run for dear life!
