Then Read These 13 Spine-chilling Stories Are you interested in real ghost stories? How about chilling tales involving haunted ships? By haunted ships, I don't mean ghost ships wandering abandoned seas (as disturbing as that may be), but something much more frightening: ships haunted by ghosts, some friendly and some, well, deadly. Within these pages you will read the fascinating true stories of haunted ships, including ships such as: The Queen Mary, haunted by ghosts spanning the years from its days as a luxury cruise ship to its stress-filled years as a troop ship during war time. The USS Hornet CV-12, which was the sight of numerous tragic deaths and just as many disturbing ghost sightings (including a patient whose been waiting a long time to see the ship's doctor). The UB-65 German submarine, which has quite the list of fatal accidents before its assembly was even complete including the ghost of a deceased officer standing on its deck right before it peculiarly sank. The Palatine, which was seen burning, but still sailing on the anniversary of its shipwreck many years after. Discover the true stories about ghosts who tear the sheets of the beds of unsuspecting guests on a famous luxury liner, ghastly crew members tragically, and possibly maliciously, killed whose faces appear in waves beside the ship, and a lifeboat rowed by a literal skeleton crew. Learn about horrific accidents, rumored curses, and even exorcisms of seafaring vessels. Read about beautiful ghosts dressed to dance in one ship's former ballroom, officers in their dress whites still hard at work, wet footprints left behind by ghosts enjoying a swimming pool no longer present, and mischievous ghosts just wanting to have some fun at the expense of the living. Find out why you shouldn't take a modern cruise ship for granted for it might be haunted, and discover some ghosts are just trying to be helpful and comforting in their own, sometimes twisted, ways. You'll also find true stories of haunted beaches across the globe, including: A beach in India next to a cremation ground where it seems tourists are drawn out into the water-and to their death. A beach in Singapore that was the site of multiple mass civilian executions in World War II, a tragedy that has been reenacted multiple times by the spirits of those involved. A stretch of beach in Canada haunted by a man who wasn't allowed to remain at rest in his chosen burial place by the sea. What seems to be a deceptively family friendly beach in Texas-at least by day! Find out about the types of ghosts that choose to haunt beaches, including aggressive sailors, frightening mermaid-like creatures, and spirits whose presence can be felt even more powerfully than if they were physically present.

Book excerpt: Looking for a Scare? Then Read These 19 Spine-chilling Stories Are you ready for a different take on the true stories of hauntings across the world? How about roads and highways that are haunted by spirits and ghosts, some of which seem to have quite evil intentions? Dangerous roads haunted by ghosts that seem determined to add to their number by causing car wrecks and a tunnel haunted by ancient warriors angry their graves were disturbed will be explored. A clown that appears by the side of the road and disappears as your car draws near or an auto accident that was witnessed months after it happened are some of the many hauntings to be discovered in this book. Animals that exhibit the symptoms of rabies the moment their feet touch the street or an aggressive ghoulie car responsible for the deaths of a group of teenagers almost 50 years ago. A woman still trying to get help for her newlywed husband trapped in their vehicle after an accident, unaware it's too late for either of them and a police officer who relives his death every time he pulls over another speeding car are just a few of the true stories of haunted highways and roads you will find within the pages of this disturbing book. India, China, Wales, Scotland, England, Australia, and the United States all have roads, streets, interstates, routes, and highways that connect one end of a country to the other. There are hundreds of thousands of roads and streets that no one experiences anything mysterious upon. Then there is a handful of streets notorious for the abnormal, disturbing, paranormal things that occur on or near them on a regular basis. While some of these hauntings only began recently, others extend back hundreds of years when the roads were dirt trails. Some of these haunted avenues are infamous, like those along Tuen Mun Road in Hong Kong, Archer Avenue in Chicago, or Mona Lisa Drive in New Orleans. Those more unknown are equally horrifying, like along A541 in Pontblyddyn, Wales and Route 2A in Maine. Regardless, you will agree this book comprises the scariest, most disturbing true tales of haunted roads and highways. One of the most unusual aspects of these stories, when compared to most true horror stories, is that just about every eyewitness encounter in the chapters of this book was experienced by someone who wasn't out looking to encounter the supernatural. These people were minding their own business when they were thrown first hand into experiences beyond the natural that would mark them for life, which means it could happen to you, too. Are you ready to never feel quite as comfortable driving along the road in the dark? Then this book is exactly what you need. Ready to scare yourself senseless?

Download or read book True Ghost Stories Real Police Ghost Stories written by Zachery Knowles and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Police! Who goes there?" the cry goes out as a shaking torchlight illuminates a ghostly figure. The figure hangs for a moment then disappears and the officer is changed forever. Suddenly, a world that made sense has been turned upside down and the terrified family who first called the police remains uncomforted. This family is not alone though, for all over the world, police officers come in contact with the strange and the paranormal. If it were anyone else, we would dismiss these tales as falsehoods by most. But the people in these stories are not unreliable witnesses or fanciful con artists; they are the men and women who serve our communities when terrifying forces seek to harm us. Our patrollers are trained to observe, to remember details, and to never assume things are as they seem; the officers involved in these stories have never been able to find rational explanations for their experiences. These accounts come from officers across the globe, from devout Catholics to staunch Atheists and everyone in between who could not have imagined what they would come across when they took their calls, and many of them wish they could forget their experiences after they did. Delve into these eighteen stories and discover that even those charged with protecting us witness things they were never equipped to deal with. If you are a non-believer, withhold your judgment until you have read the chillingly convincing evidence for yourself. If you already believe, you will know the fear these officers faced. When your job is to confront the evils that people can do to each other, to protect those who are unable to against harm, it is inevitable you will one day find something that you cannot protect. After all, as Nietzsche once said, "And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee." Ready to scare yourself senseless? Scroll to the top of the page and hit buy!

Book excerpt: For years, and in countries around the world, supernatural enthusiasts have turned to the Ouija board for their first glimpse of what lies beyond-a dimension where ghosts, spirits, demons, and devils roam free. With such a long and diverse history, it's unsurprising that Ouija has thrown up some interesting experiences. To some, it's just a bit of fun; a spooky parlor game to pass the time with friends. For others, however, the terrifying encounter haunts them for a lifetime; an experience never to be forgotten. These people would instantly erase their experience, if only they could... Haunted Ouija Boards dives into some of the spookiest encounters, giving us a spooky glimpse into the paranormal world-the book is filled with true stories from non-believers, believers, and Spiritualism fanatics, giving you a wide range of sources. Disturbing tales of lingering ghosts, ominous warnings, and implausibly correct predictions for the future are contained within.

Never underestimate the powerful entities that the Ouija board can connect you with. As well as the compilation of terrifying true tales, Haunted Ouija Boards highlights just how dangerous this "simple board game" can be, and how to enjoy it safely-if that's even possible. Haunted Ouija Boards will challenge skeptics to become believers. All of this, made possible by one board, with 26 letters, ten numbers, and a few simple words. And a little help from the spirit world, of course.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking for a Scare? Then Read These 17 Spine-chilling Stories If you like real ghost stories and are ready for something besides haunted buildings, this book is definitely for you. Within these pages are the stories of true hauntings occurring in forests to this very day across the world. Some of these eyewitness accounts go back hundreds of years and, in some cases, the ghosts involved may go back even further. Imagine going for a calm, peaceful hike in the woods when a cloud of pitch black smoke appears before you, swirling and rising until it takes the form of a person and then disappears just as quickly. Or walking along a forested path when you feel a powerful, yet invisible, hand grip your ankle and throw you to the ground violently. Do not ignore the nightmarish, gurgling cry of a long-dead little girl still seeking her mother from deep within swampy waters. Maybe you will pay a visit to one particularly infamous forest only to find yourself lost and your electronic devices malfunctioning while a sense of despair and hopelessness begins to drive you almost to the point of suicide. Think of what it would be like seeing someone leap off from the edge of a cliff, but when you rush to look over the cliff to help, the "person" disappeared-without a footprint left behind. How would you respond to a woman's horrific cries for help, only to discover a clearing where the surrounding trees are covered in so much blood you could smell it? These true stories are about forests in places as diverse as India, England, Canada, and the United States. Some of the ghosts were murder victims, others fell in battle or were criminals of vigilante justice, and many are still mourning the dead. Some spirits will not even be aware of your presence; while others are so intent you can sense their presence even when they cannot be seen. In many of these forests you will hear blood-curdling sounds, such as the slaughtering of nonexistent animals, the drums of ancient warriors still marching into battle, the pounding hooves of powerful, yet dead, horses, and many, many unusual types of screams and cries. The next time you pay a visit to the woods for a hike or perhaps a pleasant walk, just remember things may not be as quiet and peaceful as they seem for there are ghosts within the forests.
