Bramwell, David - The Haunted Moustache

Uniquely presented through memoir, essay and ephemera, 
The Haunted Moustache is the fantastical and 83% true story 
of a bizarre inheritance: a century-old moustache.
Receiving this curio from an eccentric aunt, 
David Bramwell embarks on a ten-year journey to discover 
all he can about its former owner Ambrose Oddfellow. 
His quest draws him into the underbelly of Brighton – its 
séances, spiritual churches and a seedy basement club, where 
he unwittingly becomes the host of a modern-day freak show. 
Beginning to believe that his hairy heirloom is possessed, 
Bramwell joins a cult, dabbles with telepathy-inducing 
psychedelics and comes close to being murdered. Has the city, 
his strange inheritance or just plain lunacy got him in its grip? 
And who is the mysterious Drako, a former Dali model who 
appears to be somehow linked to his prized possession?
Against a backdrop of occultism and caravan parks, 
The Haunted Moustache is a supernatural coming-of-age story, 
an exploration into the nature of reality and an affectionate 
portrayal of England’s rich counterculture.


The Haunted Moustache comes with a mighty endorsement from comic book author Alan Moore : 'A genuinely marvellous demonstration of how beautifully the mechanism of reality functions. Neurologically this will light you up like a Christmas Tree.'
