 In the mid-1870s, a wave of popular urban hauntings in public spaces swept across Europe. These included sightings of the Park Ghost in Sheffield in 1873 and the Westminster Christ Church Ghost in London in 1874. In early December 1874, probably the most famous Czech ghost, the Podskalí Apparition (Podskalské strašidlo), was born. This haunting was followed by that of similar but less popular ghosts that appeared in industrial, working-class Prague neighborhoods in 1876 and 1907, respectively.

Abstract:
AbstractThe currently popular practice of propitiating, or ‘adopting’, child spirits in Thailand reveals an ambivalent attitude towards childhood. According to Buddhist scholars on childhood, Buddhist conceptions of children do not differentiate children in significant ways from adults in terms of their relative purity or innocence, as both children and adults possess countless lifetimes of karma; children are thus agentive beings, although not yet fully realised as adults. The child ghosts reflect the complex, competing conceptions of childhood, where they are both valuable resources to be de

Abstract This article* examines the origins and development of notions about jian spirits, beings into which, according to Chinese folk tradition, the souls of the dead transform after their demise. An analysis of the few available references to jian in Chinese literature and folklore suggests that the first mention of jian as ‘ghosts of ghosts’ appears relatively late, in the 13th century, as the result of a combination of two independent traditions: the written jian formula used in apotropaic practices from at least the Tang period (618–907), and a complex of ideas about the mortality of gho

During the Edo period (1603-1868) in Japan, ghost stories flourished. Some of these stories are particularly interesting for jurists analysing the Tokugawa legal system through the lens of popular culture. This article examines one of these stories: the tale of a servant who is killed by the hands of an unjust lord and returns as a ghost constitutes a faithful depiction of the tension between law and justice under the Tokugawa. The story shows, albeit indirectly, how the legal system was unable to provide justice for the lower strata of the population. Finally, the ghost itself plays a distinc

One of its branches, working with alternative history, often has a very nationalistic or revanchist subtext.
