I AM collecting information for a manuscript on true ghost stories and the supernatural.

If readers have any experiences of sightings of apparitions, remarkable coincidences, dreams and/or premonitions, reminiscent smells, etc., I would like them to contact me.

I am particularly interested in anything which parallels traditional folklore or folk tales, but any relevant accounts will be welcome.
