Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Cemeteries, abandoned asylums, prisons, ships, hospitals, battlefields, caves, mines, office buildings, and homes are the sites of paranormal occurrences in this collection of stories from a ghost hunter by trade. Beginning with a childhood spent in a haunted house, this personal account includes episodes from traveling and exploring haunted places, including stories of hearing disembodied voices, watching balls of dancing light, and being physically injured by spirits. The stories are corroborated by other participants in the ghost hunts as well as photographs. Guidelines for aspiring ghost hunters and tips for capturing apparitions on film are included.

Synopsis:

Haunted travel destinations in the United States are detailed in this guide for the ghost-inspired traveler. An exploration into why spirits have come to linger in some spots more regularly than others provides a context for the detailed histories of each spot, from the Doc Holiday–haunted dusty streets of Tombstone, Arizona, to the sinister rooms of the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Not just a list of the typical stops on a paranormal tour, this guidebook also includes little-known spots off the beaten track—each one sure to add a new level of excitement to any vacation.
