Forget Amityville, Annabelle and even the Connecticut home that inspired The Conjuring - the most haunted home that world-famous ghost hunter Lorraine Warren ever stepped foot in was a three-bedroom brick home in Gladesville, Sydney.

In his award-winning narrative style, James Phelps, author of the bestselling Australia's Hardest Prison series, will re-create the thrilling histories of some of Australia's most haunted places, including Aradale Mental Hospital and its horrifying 126-year history.

Featuring spine-tingling on-the-record accounts from those who have been at the centre of the hauntings, Ghost Stories exposes the secret and ghoulish history of some of Australia's most famous buildings.
