Our journey begins with a lunatic on London Bridge—Roger Downes, an aristocratic gremlin with booze in his belly and blood in his eyes—whose homicidal boasting ends with his own decapitation, and a legacy that haunts Wardley Hall with a toothy grin. But the ghost of Downes isn’t alone in his cursed company.We claw through centuries of death-laced ecclesiastical drama, uncovering the tale of St. Ambrose Barlow, a Benedictine martyr whose severed skull radiates holy menace from its niche atop the stairwell. In a storm-rattled manor, his head refuses to be dismissed—resurrected in legend and defiant in spirit.From there, the madness spirals further: a skull unearthed at Browsholme Hall may belong to a noble slain in Henry VIII’s wrathful purge of the Pilgrimage of Grace. At Longleat, a boyish marquess gets too cheeky with a forgotten head and winds up in a ditch. And finally, the tale of the Red Barn Murderer’s skull—a relic passed like a cursed baton from hand to trembling hand, leaving broken bones, smashed glass, and icy breath in its wake.Threaded through it all is the ancient Celtic notion that the skull is the seat of the soul—a cosmic belief of madness and magnificence whispered through ages. The Hosts talk ghost dogs, disembodied heads, skeletal vengeance, and enough headless horsemen to make Sleepy Hollow feel quaint.So strap in, you thrill-hungry maniacs. Volume 2 peels back the lid and dares you to look inside. But be warned—these skulls remember. And they do not forgive.
