Hampton Court Palace contains layers of Tudor ambition, royal domestic life, architectural change and some of Britain's most famous ghost traditions. Echoes through the Palace traces the historical lives later attached to apparitions - including Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard and Sybil Penn - before examining the Haunted Gallery, the Grey Lady, security alarms, the widely circulated 'Skeletor' CCTV image and visitor photographs. Palace records, building fabric, oral tradition, guard testimony, publicity and interpretation are carefully separated. The book neither declares the palace haunted nor dismisses sincere experiences; instead, it shows how biography, location, technology and expectation combine to give royal ghosts a durable place in public memory.
