 stock image, actual book may vary New England's dark hills, fogbound coasts, and hidden villages have inspired generations of writers such as Hawthorne, Lovecraft, and King. But these authors' dark imaginings pale when compared to little-known but well- documented and true tales. In this delightfully spine-tingling tour of all six New England states, Citro chronicles the haunted history and folklore of a region steeped in hardship and horror, humor, and pathos.

 stock image, actual book may vary Death is never the end of the story. In 1991, as Linda Alice Dewey walked through an abandoned cemetery, she and a companion felt a presence. She returned to that graveyard over the next couple of years, hoping to reach out to that poor being, offering the words: "Whoever is here my heart is with you. Little did Linda know that those words would begin her relationship with Aaron Burke, a man who had died nearly 70 years earlier. Aaron followed Linda home that day from the graveyard. As she opened herself to this ghost she learned that he was stuck in a state of limbo, unable to cross over. Aaron had been kidnapped by his father at age four and taken from Ireland to America where he was put to work. Hardened and embittered from his childhood, he did manage to find happiness, only to have it all slip away. Shortly after witnessing his own funeral, Aaron met other ghosts waiting for the time they could finally leave this state of limbo. Yet for decades he could only watch as the people he knew both in life and death crossed over, leaving him behind. Working together to find the closure Aaron needed, he and Linda became friends along the journey. Years after that first meeting and his subsequent crossing, Aaron returned to share the full story of his life--and afterlife--with Linda. This true ghost story gives hope and inspiration to all of us. Aaron shows us that, when seen as the big picture, everything makes sense. Aaron's Crossing sheds light on the mystery of dying, reassuring us that death is never the end of the story

 stock image, actual book may vary In the twentieth-century literature of the supernatural, the single most important book, in the opinion of most scholars and enthusiasts, is Ghost Stories of an Antiquary , by Montague Rhodes James. First printed in 1904, it is the landmark book that established the modern horror story. It has been reprinted more times than any other book in this field, and it contains several of the best ghost stories in the English language. The antiquary here is M. R. James, Provost of Eton, one of the most formidable scholars that England has ever produced, who has drawn upon an unmatched knowledge of the hidden byways of the past to form a series of inimitable stories. Among them are such favorites as "Number Thirteen," "Canon Alberic's Scrap-book," and "Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad." Common to all of them is the breath of "the evil that dieth not but lieth in wait." This edition reprints for the first time in recent years the four original illustrations that James McBride prepared while James was working on this, his first collection.

 stock image, actual book may vary London has a reputation for being the world's most haunted capitol, with ghosts from every era and in all parts of the city. From Highgate to Wimbledon and from Chiswick to Wanstead, specters can be found in every kind of location, from pubs, hotels, and theaters to bridges, monuments, and parks. In this book, Richard Jones recounts the tales of almost 200 hauntings. He guides you around the city, taking you to the most haunted house in London at 50 Berkeley Square to meet apparitions so ghastly that people have been literally scared to death. He also introduces more playful revenants, like the regretful ghost of a rich merchant who, leaving too late in life, flirtily pinches women's bottoms as a ghost. Whether you tour the city from you armchair or on foot, you will be transported back through history to the time when Jack the Ripper roamed the street; when Oliver Cromwell's body was exhumed, tried, and "hanged"; and when Nelson died, victorious, at Trafalgar. Richard Jones is an informed and entertaining guide who retells the tales of famous, infamous, and ordinary wraiths who inhabit London's underworld. Whether they were plague victims, murderers, actors, lovers, or kindly old ladies, their haunting will captivate your imagination.

Along the towpath of the C O Canal, a phantom police officer still walks his lonely beat, and on moonlit nights, he is joined by a razor-wielding ghoul. From the spirit of a sea captain who lingers in the Old Stone House to the strange ambiance of the Exorcist" Steps, author and guide Tim Krepp takes readers on a chilling journey through the ghostly lore of Georgetown."

 stock image, actual book may vary Ghosts. Unearthly presences. Things that go bump in the night. St. Augustine, America s oldest city, has them all. The unique and often turbulent history of the Ancient City has spawned more than four hundred years worth of shadowy figures of the dark hours. Come walk through misty, cobblestone streets, down shaded alleys, along the wall of the old stone fort. Smell the smoke of ancient fires, the musty corners of old houses, the garlic and olive oil of Majorcan kitchens. Listen to the tinkling of wine glasses long shattered, the strum of Spanish guitars long broken, and the laughter of a dozen foreign tongues long dead. Awaken to the midnight howling of the city's prowling cats; seek sleep between nightmares lulled by the lapping waters of the Matanzas Bay named for the massacre of the French Huguenots by the Spanish here in 1565. Author Dave Lapham has collected twenty-four stories from St. Augustine s rich oral history into a light, yet sometimes hair-raising peek at the spooky side of the Oldest City.
