Book excerpt: Are you ready to solve a mystery? One that disproves accepted archeology and history? Then you need to get Celtic Mysteries in New England by Philip Imbrogno and Marianne Horrigan. You see, there are over sixty-five mysterious small buildings throughout New England. Archeologists dismiss them as root cellars from colonial times. But if they are just root cellars, why are there no records of them being made by the colonists? Why is it that in one record a colonist - who found one already made and on his property - was told by a priest to avoid it? Why is it that many are aligned to certain stars that are associated with the ancient Druids? Why do some have intricate carvings on the walls? In order to answer these and many more questions, the authors start on a journey of discovery, and take you along on a wild ride that threatens to shake the very foundations of history! You will go along with them as they discover factual evidence of European explorers visiting the Americas nearly 1,000 years before Columbus. You will learn how the Druids came over and built these constructions as part of their religion. In Europe, such constructions are known to appear along lines of energy and power. So are these. You will discover how they are frequently the center for the appearance of odd lights and UFOs. Scientific evidence shows them to be centered on weird, magnetic field anomalies. If you are ready to discover the Celtic past of the Americas, you need to get this book. It will also intrigue and thrill archeologists, paranormalists, and people who just want to know the truth.

Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Profiles the Salem Witch Trials and other historic phenomena in New England *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading *Includes a table of contents "I think one of the reasons Stephen King's stories work so well is that he places his stories in spooky old New England, where a lot of American folk legends came from." - Ted Naifeh New England has always had a special place in the national memory. The states of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont have a long history as some of the earliest colonies in the New World. Their rich folklore and colorful history is woven into the national identity, and destinations such as Plymouth Rock, the lighthouses of Maine, and Vermont's autumn leaves are quintessential symbols of the United States. But New England has always had a dark side, a strange side. Monsters and ghosts lurk in its woods and old houses, and strange monuments that may be from a forgotten civilization puzzle local investigators. All the while, the early inhabitants themselves were always superstitious, as evidenced by history's most famous witch trials. Today the Salem Witch Trials are often remembered as being a relic of a superstitious past, and Salem has transformed itself into a tourist haven and Halloween destination by capitalizing off the Salem Witch trials, but it was deadly serious in 1692, when 19 men and women found themselves taken to "Gallows Hill" and hanged for being witches. Another man who was over 80 years old was pressed to death for refusing to be tried for witchcraft, and from February 1692-May 1693, hundreds of others were accused of witchcraft. Dozens of them were imprisoned for months until the mass hysteria finally died down. Mysterious New England: A History of the Region's Mysteries, Hauntings, and Strange Creatures profiles a sampling of strange, unexplained, and just plain odd stories of New England that have fascinated people in and around the region for centuries. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about mysterious New England like never before, in no time at all.
