Funny, poetic and touching, The Haunted Moustache is the fantastical and 83% true story of a unique inheritance: a hundred-year-old moustache. Receiving this curio from an eccentric aunt, David Bramwell embarks on a ten-year journey to discover all he can about its former owner. His quest draws him into the underbelly of Brighton - its seances, spiritual churches and a seedy basement club - where he unwittingly becomes host to a modern-day freakshow. Against a backdrop of occultism, caravan parks and counter-culture icons, The Haunted Moustache is mischevious and supernatural.
Twenty one unique themed journeys through town and country, with sights to see, canny commentary and a soup on of silliness. If you've ever thought there must be more to this walking lark than wandering through fields, pointing and saying 'look, a tree!' this book provides affirmation. Yes, it's good to get out in the fresh(ish) air but have you retraced the final steps of Lord Lucan or Virginia Woolf, been on a moonlit walk or visited a lost village accompanied by a musical soundtrack? Take a tour of Brighton and Hove's best sights.
