Christ's is at the heart of a recent University Newsletter feature on Haunted Cambridge. The article, which gathers ghost stories from across the city, mentions A.P. Barker's 'A College Mystery', a tale of intra-collegiate rivalry at Christ’s in the mid-nineteenth century. It was originallybrought out in 1918 and is now available through Back-in-Print Books.

Baker was an undergraduate and lecturer at Christ’s at the turn of the 20th century, and his book purports to explain the true and grisly story of two College Fellows – Christopher Round and Philip Collier (both mythical). The ghost of the former, it is said, walks through the garden every year on 29 May and, on the same night, unsettling noises echo through the Fellows’ Building, where Round and Collier had rooms.

The piece is illustrated with a series of atmospheric photographs by Arist in Residence Issam Kourbaj, and also features Development Office Publications Officer Helen Mort, whose recent pamphlet ' A Pint For The Ghost' was inspired by ghostly myths and legends.
