Book Synopsis
An artist investigates strange goings on at the British museum - and uncovers a maelstrom of disquiet within its corridors, galleries and vaults

“An absorbingly creepy travelogue through the corridors, tunnels and basements of our most famous cultural repository. With Noah Angell as our guide, the British Museum becomes a haunted prison filled with imperial plunder and restless spirits clamouring for attention.” - Malcolm Gaskill, author of The Ruin Of All Witches

“Fascinating and illuminating” - Peter Ackroyd

“Brilliantly delicate, pointed, shivery... You could read it as a guide to which galleries to avoid - or to where the push for repatriation should be most urgent.” -  Erin L. Thompson, professor of art crime at the City University of New York

“Achieves a near-impossible marriage between paranormal pop-culture, folklore and hauntology” -
