Items related to DUPPY STORIES
A collection of supernatural stories from Jamaica featuring ghosts, gremlins and rolling calves. Some are """"true"""", some sinister, some amusing, but all bring to life the underbelly of a country which, while devoutly religious, is very much open to the world of the bush doctor, spirits and, of course, the ubiquitous duppies.

Synopsis:
An Enchanting Set of Stories in the Ancient Jamaican Tradition; A duppy is an old Bantu word for 'ghost' and the Jamaican folklore tradition is full of tales of the supernatural. Duppy Stories is a fascinating collection of these ancient stories that recall the childhood years of ghosts, gremlins and rolling calves, and brings to life the underbelly of a country that is strangely religious, yet open to the world of the bush doctor, spirits and of course the ubiquitous duppies. The book is a potpourri of authentic stories, some true (The Great Train Crash), some ugly and sinister (The Man Who Stayed Out Late), and some very amusing (The Donkey's Revenge).
