Carol Arnall has been fascinated by the subject of ghosts and hauntings since childhood, but it was only following a serious car accident in 1987 that she finally decided to put pen to paper and have a go at committing something to print.

Carol admits that the notion of producing a book on one of her favourite subjects wasn't exactly something new; she had already amassed an impressive array of local based, paranormal related material over the preceeding years. Unfortunately, the accident had now put pay to a successful family business that Carol had set up with her Daughter, and, finding that she had a fair amount of spare time on her hands, she saw that this was perhaps the perfect time to indulge in a project that she had been entertaining for some while. "You have to be positive - and decide either to sink or swim". She says, "I decided I was going to swim, and this was an ideal opportunity for me to do something different". Over the past decade or so, Carol has produced a series of small booklets dedicated to the ghostlore of her home county of Staffordshire .

The titles of Carols books are...
Mystical Staffordshire
Ghostly Staffordshire
Mysterious Occurences
Haunted Staffordshire
Staffordshire Hauntings
Memories of Rugeley Poems
Dreams Explained
Brummagem Girls
Mystical Happenings

Carol is currently working on her new booklet 'Eerie Happenings'.
