This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most haunted neighborhood in America? That's what many are calling Old Louisville, an extensive preservation district with hundreds of old mansions and beautiful homes in Kentucky's largest city. Wherever you go in this eye-popping neighborhood, it seems that a haunted house is not far away. Or a haunted church, a haunted street corner, or a haunted park. Over the last decade, so many stories of paranormal activity have surfaced that Old Louisville has gained the reputation as being one of the spookiest locations in the country. David Dominé discovered this for himself after purchasing an old home on Old Louisville's famed Millionaires Row in 1999. A self-proclaimed skeptic, the food writer dismissed rumors of a mischievous resident poltergeist named Lucy when he moved in, but he quickly found himself at a loss to explain the disembodied footsteps and mysterious odors that seemed to plague the old house. Soon, he was talking to neighbors and fellow homeowners, and it seemed that everyone had stories of strange events and supernatural occurrences in their own dwellings. As a result, David set out to document and research these reports and began writing about the neighborhood; in the process he uncovered a wealth of fascinating history and ghostly tales that convinced him this historic neighborhood is like no other in the country. If you liked David Dominé's Ghosts of Old Louisville series, you'll love True Ghost Stories and Eerie Legends from America's Most Haunted Neighborhood. Edited and updated, this collection brings together the most popular and chilling tales from his previous books about one of the most fascinating neighborhoods in the country.

Download or read book The Strange Case of William Mumler Spirit Photographer written by Louis Kaplan and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1860s, William Mumler photographed ghostsa or so he claimed. Faint images of the dearly departed lurked in the background with the living, like his well-known photo of the recently assassinated Abraham Lincoln comforting Mary Todd. The practice came to be known as spirit photography, and some believed Mumler was channeling the dead. Skeptics, however, called it a fraudulent trick on the gullible, taking advantage of the grieving at a time of suffering and loss. Mumlera s insistence that his work brought back the dead led to a sensational trial in 1869 that was the talk of the nation.

Download or read book Scole Experiment written by Grant Solomon and published by Campion Books. This book was released on 2012-12-31 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: REVIEW OF THE SCOLE EXPERIMENT IN 'TIME OUT': Is there life after death? Reading this remarkable book may convince even the most hardened sceptic, with its apparently solid scientific evidence for our continuing survival once we have shuffled off this mortal coil. What distinguishes the experiments chronicled here from other attempts to 'prove' that there is an afterlife are the rigorous protocols under which they were carried out. With chance, coincidence and connivance carefully eliminated, spectacular results were still achieved: handwriting, hieroglyphs and messages appearing on factory-sealed film, coins materialising, and lights dancing in front of impartial observers. Written in a calm, precise and dispassionate style, the book comes in advance of 'The Scole Report', which will shortly be published as an official Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research - SPR. -- Time Out, October 1999

Download or read book True Ghost Stories written by Zachery Knowles and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking for a Scare? Then Read These 15 Spine-chilling Stories The idea of a haunted castle isn't too foreign to most of us. After all, old castles undoubtedly saw many deaths, unjust executions, tortures, broken hearts, and violence in general. Even the most stunning and awe-inspiring castles can hide the darkest secrets, filled with spirits refusing to let those secrets die. From ghosts re-enacting their own executions to ever-present blood stains and playful phantom children, you will read chilling accounts of true hauntings in castles across the world. Ireland, New Zealand, Canada, Austria, the Czech Republic, and more are the homes of castles whose astounding history and unusual architecture are shadowed only by their reputation for paranormal phenomenon and restless ghosts. Consider the imposing Houska Castle, the site of secretive Nazi experiments in physics and the paranormal, which was built hundreds of years ago to keep evil inside rather than invaders out like most castles. The notorious Tower of London has its share of unruly spirits, including a massive bear that nearly scared a security guard to death. Those are just some of the frightening true stories within this book as you learn about the world's most haunted castles. You will discover a man dragged down a dungeon hallway still inhabited by the ghost of an evil torturer. You may laugh about how many ghostly photobombers enjoy showing up in tourists' pictures or gasp at the account of a headless drummer boy who suddenly disappears. Consider awakening in the middle of the night surrounded by a group of Druid-like monks. Think of how terrified you would be to encounter a suit of armor that let out a blood-curdling, pain-riddled scream. Ponder viewing security footage displaying a heavy door flinging wide open only seconds before a massive, hooded figure appears. If you find these types of stories fascinating and creepy, this is the book for you. Ready to scare yourself senseless? Scroll to the top of the page and hit buy!
