Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unbelievable account of ghosts, long-legged beasts, and things that go bump in the night in the historic Colorado mining town and its environs. Home to the last gold rush in America, Teller County attracted a slew of peculiar characters. And many never left. A Victor Hotel regular named Eddie met his untimely death when he tumbled down the elevator shaft. A female apparition clad in Victorian clothing appears on the stairs of the Palace Hotel. A closed tunnel on Gold Camp Road is said to echo with the sounds of screaming children. And lingering spirits are still prisoners at the old Teller County Jail. Linda Wommack uncovers the eerie thrills and chills of Cripple Creek and Teller County. “Linda Wommack knows where all the ghosts are in southern Teller County—at least the ones who show themselves in various places, mostly old buildings . . . For the paranormal community, southern Teller County is the place to be.” —Pikes Peak Courier

Book excerpt: This is the true story of Susan Oates, who was unwittingly implanted with a top-secret covert military device, which allowed her to sub-audibly communicate with her military handlers. Follow her fifteen-year saga, as she first attempts to assist them with their mission and is subjected to years of systematic conditioning at the mercy of covert ops. As they work with Susan and gain incredible insight into the workings of the human brain, something goes horrifically wrong with the process, and they discover they have placed her on a path to an excruciating death. As a consequence, they determine they are in too deep to let her go free. She knows too much, and if her story gets out, then everyone involved will face significant prison time. Fearing the repercussions of an operation that has devolved into chaos, the intelligence operatives do the unthinkable: They hand Susan back over to a hardened group of heartless individuals, who resume torturing her by inflicting agonizing pain, all the while continuing to eavesdrop and ruthlessly mock her as she pleads for them to stop. Susan travels the world frantically searching for a location where she cannot be tracked, but her stalkers still control her like a marionette dangling on strings. Finally, she is left with only one hope: that a sympathetic captor will intervene on her behalf and at least make her life bearable-until the unavoidable bitter end.

Download or read book Ghosts Along the Cumberland written by William Lynwood Montell and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 1975 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating collection of ghost stories, tales of the supernatural, death beliefs and death sayings that remain as a vestige of the part in south central Kentucky's "Pennyrile" region. "This unique and extremely valuable book adds considerably to the area of folklore studies in the United States. The material which Montell obtained in his field work is superb." --Don Yoder. "This book is to be recommended to both folklorists and those non-folklorists who read folklore for enjoyment alone. It makes an important contribution to the study of deathlore and, it is to be hoped, will draw added attention to this multi-generic subject area." --David J. Hufford, Tennessee Folklore Society Bulletin. "Professor Montell's book can well be viewed as a standard of excellence: a direct, articulate and cataloged approach for future study and implementation in the fields of folklore and oral history." --Joan Perkal, Oral History Association Newsletter. "The book gives fascinating accounts of death beliefs, death omens, folk beliefs associated with the dead, and in the major section, ghosts narratives. A fine combination of scholarship and chilling narration to be relished by firelight in an old deserted house in the hills." --Book Forum. "Professor Montell has arranged beliefs and experiences about death of a particular group of people in such a way that a whole new aspect of the people's lives comes to focus." --Loyal Jones, The Filson Club HIstory Quarterly.
