Summary[edit]

Description
English: Illustration of the Bannister Hall Doll in two of its forms. The Bannister Hall Doll was a boggart that haunted Bannister Hall in Preston according to many nineteenth century accounts. The two forms depicted here are a headless woman and a headless dog. There is also a chain, to show how the boggart made the sounds of rattling chains. Both these representations can be found in an account in the Preston Chronicle, 15 Oct 1853, referenced in "The Boggart Sourcebook" by Dr Simon Young.
