Book Overview

The Complete Prideaux Ghost Stories are weird and unusual tales about 28 generations of the de Pridias, now known as Prideaux, family. My family and my ancestors. Each generation is my blood link from 1011 AD and reaches through my grandfather Clifford who died in 1963, to me. The last story in this collection is about Clifford Prideaux. I haven't yet written about Dorothy, Ann Agnes or Richard Fulke Paganus Prideaux. The stars of my tales lived in the places I write about, walked the lands, which more often than not they owned and played with the people I describe. They took part in great historical events and knew, Kings, Earls, Priors and poets, including Geoffrey Chaucer. They fought in famous wars and sided with well-known individuals and were enemies of others.I have taken liberties with the stories that are told, but surprisingly much of it is - almost true. The prayer exists, the staff belonging to Henry VIII, the books and the documents. John Prideaux was the Bishop of Worcester and I have written about him in far greater detail in The Bishop and The Witch. I do have the cherry pits too, although I am better at growing them than making pies. I see dead people and I have seen the hooded man.The stories can be found in shorter volumes in Cornish Prideaux Ghost Stories, Devon Prideaux Ghost Stories, A Ghost Story, Prideaux Ghost Stories, More Prideaux Ghost Stories, Collected Prideaux Ghost Stories and A Christmas Story.

About A. A. Prideaux

Check out www.aaprideaux.com for loads more information. A A Prideaux has Cornish beginnings and currently lives in North Wales following several adventures and moves around the British Isles. Although writing fills up her days, she still spends as much time as possible roaming Cornwall and researching the family history. A A Prideaux has traced her line back almost 1000 years to Paganus Prideaux. She rides and trains her horses to have a cushy life and ensures her dogs are able to sleep on the sofa watching television as much as possible. Shudder was published in 2013 and the small market town of Bramley, Leeds was used as the stage setting for the unusual story. This was Bramley as it was prior to the redevelopment which occurred during the 60s and 70s. The story came to A A Prideaux in a dream. She felt that she should write it down so that she would be able to close the book and keep it in the freezer if necessary. Why? To keep Shudder away... The Specials is a murder mystery and is the first book about the detectives featured in the story. A A Prideaux intends to bring the murder team back to solve further mysteries. The Bishop and the Witch is about an ancestor of AA Prideaux, and the fictionalized version of a witch trial he was involved in. A A Prideaux is fanatical, almost obsessive about her history and already shares freely much of the information she has discovered about the Prideaux line on her website, www.aaprideaux.com. Bishop John Prideaux is the star of this full length novel, but other members of her ancestors are having part of their lives told in the short story series about the family currently being published. A Ghost Story is the first in this series. It may seem odd to begin with the 1505 ancestor, but the release date was Halloween and his story fit. There will be 30 odd short stories ultimately, ranging from 1040 to the present day. A Christmas Story is features another ancestor. The Nirvana series are self help books instructing in the use of the power of imagination in successfully creating your world.
