Author bio
Mark was born in Huntingdon on the 4th February 1961, he is 56 years old. The son of a bricklayer, he was raised in the small rural village of Southoe, which is situated between Huntingdon and St Neots. Mark was educated at Southoe, Brampton and at Hinchingbrooke School in Huntingdon. He spent the last year of his education studying in Hinchingbrooke House, which features on the books front and rear cover. After leaving school in 1978 he then spent the first 25 years of his working career with American chemical giants DuPont, working for DuPont in St Neots, Stevenage and Cambridge. Since then he has run his own business (a Driving School), and has also worked as an FDAP accredited Drug and Alcohol Worker throughout Cambridgeshire. Mark has two grown up children, a son called Matthew and a daughter called China, they both live locally in Huntingdonshire.
Mark first became interested in Ghosts and the paranormal following a personal experience which happened to him in 1976. This experience was to have a profound effect on his life, and this is all fully explained within the book. Mark was only 15 years old at that time, and he has been fascinated by Ghosts and the paranormal ever since. The paranormal is a very broad subject, and Mark's particular area of interest is predominately Ghosts, Hauntings and Poltergeist phenomena. His early interest was encouraged by his late uncle Trevor Kenward, a long term and highly respected member of the world famous 'Ghost Club.' The 'Ghost Club' is the oldest psychical research organisation on the planet. Its roots date back to 1862 when it was formed at Trinity College in Cambridge. Former eminent members of the 'Ghost Club' include the famous author Charles Dickens, the actor Peter Cushing and paranormal experts Harry Price and Peter Underwood.
Mark was fortunate to receive expert tuition from his late uncle Trevor Kenward, and on two occasions was privileged to be given tuition and advice from Peter Underwood, the then President of the 'Ghost Club.' For a long period of time Trevor Kenward's wife Marilyn (Mark's Aunt), was responsible for the 'Ghost Clubs' general finances and admin. Mark is now semi-retired and lives back in Southoe, the village where he grew up. He's a very keen Sportsman and his other passions include Reading, Classic Rock Music and traditional English Cider! Thanks to his late father Harold (a born and bred Liverpudlian), he is also a lifelong and very passionate follower of Liverpool F.C.
