I'd best add that the description "stone-age horseman" was my own. I don't have it to hand (hence my own interpretation of the original description!) but the book Devereux mentions this experience in is "Haunted Land". If I remember correctly, he was a little less specific than me, but he did describe the figure as riding a horse. I'll dig the book out tonight.

Whats Well Known Ghosts II?

Whats Well Known Ghosts II? Sounds like some trashy made for TV movie.

Seriosuly, someone wielding an axe on a horse is exactly that, not evidence of anything. Could be the ghost of a re-enactor!
