What. can a 12th-century English monk teach us about ghosts? Well, for one, they exist. They exist right alongside the goings-on of the kingdom. Also, they cannot be separated from everyday life. A 12-century monk can teach us that, to the medieval mind, the secular and the spiritual realms coexist and those ethereal entities who visit us in the dead of night are just as real as the person sleeping next to you. Enjoy these tales of ghostly encounters from the 12th century!
