Back in the early days of the web I stumbled across a website entitled Strange Thame which was filled with stories of Ghosts, Witches, Headless Horseman and Wildcats living in the Chilterns.  Having spent a few nights reading up on the strange going’s on in the area I bookmarked the site and wondered off down another rabbit hole of information on the web…

in the summer of 2019 whilst talking to a friend about websites and fun facts I remembered the website and was prompted to try and find it.  Sadly it had gone…  Using my best investigative skills I set about trying to find some information and stumbled across some old links to the site, I fed these into the Way Back Machine and to my joy I found an archive of all the articles and, most importantly an email address for the author…

A LOT can happen in 20 years but thankfully the email managed to reach it’s destination and a few days after sending a missive asking permission to republish the content I received the reply I was hoping for, so, here’s an archive of the information presented with where possible geographical maps, extra links and more.  As an extra plus the original author was excited to hear of my plans and also sent me a few books on other parts of the UK’s strange stories so I’ll be looking to republish them on the web soon too…
