The mysterious and bone chilling phenomena can be seen all year round if you take the time to hike to the remote location, and wait patiently. Local resident, Mark Evans claims to have seen the Gurdon light on many occasions, especially on extremely dark nights when it is overcast. Running from the light does not stop it's existence. It will merely show up behind you or follow you until you pause and take notice. Then it simply disappears......In Randolph, Maine, a walking path leading deep into the forest has taken the place of where old railroad tracks would have once been a prominent fixture that once wound through the haunted forest. A sparkling stream runs along the path and is often the focal point at night where orbs are most often witnessed floating around in the woods, just above the water in mid-air.

Download or read book Mouse Tracks written by Tim Hollis and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the world there are grandparents, parents, and children who can still sing ditties by Tigger or Baloo the Bear or the Seven Dwarves. This staying power and global reach is in large part a testimony to the pizzazz of performers, songwriters, and other creative artists who worked with Walt Disney Records. Mouse Tracks: The Story of Walt Disney Records chronicles for the first time the fifty-year history of the Disney recording companies launched by Walt Disney and Roy Disney in the mid-1950s, when Disneyland Park, Davy Crockett, and the Mickey Mouse Club were taking the world by storm. The book provides a perspective on all-time Disney favorites and features anecdotes, reminiscences, and biographies of the artists who brought Disney magic to audio. Authors Tim Hollis and Greg Ehrbar go behind the scenes at the Walt Disney Studios and discover that in the early days Walt Disney and Roy Disney resisted going into the record business before the success of "The Ballad of Davy Crockett" ignited the in-house label. Along the way, the book traces the recording adventures of such Disney favorites as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Cinderella, Bambi, Jiminy Cricket, Winnie the Pooh, and even Walt Disney himself. Mouse Tracks reveals the struggles, major successes, and occasional misfires. Included are impressions and details of teen-pop princesses Annette Funicello and Hayley Mills, the Mary Poppins phenomenon, a Disney-style "British Invasion," and a low period when sagging sales forced Walt Disney to suggest closing the division down. Complementing each chapter are brief performer biographies, reproductions of album covers and art, and facsimiles of related promotional material. Mouse Tracks is a collector's bonanza of information on this little-analyzed side of the Disney empire. Learn more about the book and the authors at www.mousetracksonline.com.

Download or read book Ghost Tracks written by Mark Saba and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The stories in Ghost Tracks are indeed haunted, but not by poltergeists or any other supernatural monsters. Instead, these beautifully-rendered works of short fiction are haunted by memory and missed opportunities. Mark Saba excavates a city of Pittsburgh where the factories are still producing steel and the men still have to speak in shards of blunt metallic language, where shades of meaning hover like ghosts between the words." Craig Fishbane, On the Proper Role of Desire ____________________________________ "In Ghost Tracks: Stories of Pittsburgh Past, Mark Saba writes about a Pittsburgh that is neither material, nor historical, but a place of memory. Beginning his collection with a quote from Tolstoy, 'Everything is, everything exists, only because I love' he sketches in 'the everything' with stories about professors, workmen, children and nuns told in an amazing range of voices. Some of the narrators relate events as they are occurring and some talk about what happened after their deaths. In the last story in the book, a father who had died when his son was three wonders what his son would have been like if had been a part of his growing up. The father says that the only consolation he can find is that his son uses 'his uncommon perspective to bring light to others who may have found themselves in the same circumstance.' Mark Saba has an uncommon perspective, and he has used it to connect us to characters that exist for us because of his expert telling of their stories." Chris Bullard, Fear ______________________________________ "Mark Saba's Ghost Tracks: Stories of Pittsburgh Past serves up twenty-three delightful vignettes arranged in three movements, chronicling the bittersweet lives of men, women, and children of Pittsburgh past. Among them: a chronic illness, seen and experienced by an innocent child ('Asthma'); a Lithuanian immigrant girl's coming of age ('National Biscuit Company'); and a richly-lived (and told) life viewed through the diary of a blind maid, mother, and crone ('Eva'). In these and other poignant tales, Saba narrates the human condition at its most savory and delicious." Phillip E. Temples, Machine Feelings and Helltown Chronicles
