Before the tours, before the lights, before the safety rails and history boards, there were boys with weak bicycle lamps, filthy hands and more nerve than sense. In the lost railway and wartime tunnels beneath Ramsgate, Royd Moore remembers a hidden world of rubbish bunkers, blocked passages, Pleasurama relics, railway refuge holes, ghost-train shadows and the chalk marks people leave behind when they want the dark to remember them. Part memory, part haunting, and part local history, The Tunnel Boys is a ghost story about brotherhood, danger, seaside underworlds, and the strange mercy of places that count you in — and sometimes count you back out.
