The McCauliffe siblings, Dylan, Mike and Sarah, are at it again, caught amid another paranormal frenzy. But this time their challenge is Black Shadow Ridge, one of the most haunted locations in Cincinnati, Ohio. After receiving a mysterious email, Dylan, the equipment expert of the group, and his brother Mike, the researcher, visit a woman who lives near the Gottlieb Place, a haunted venue known for ghosts and an old witch who peers through one of the windows. On the way to the house, they get spooked by orbs of light and a headless bride. And later, they discover that the land is haunted by hundreds of spirits who roam the field and woods near the house of the woman who hired them. On the day of the investigation, the woman disappears and the teens are left to defend for themselves. They soon discover a mystery surrounding the hauntings which thrusts them into a world of dangerous spirits. And the only way to end the hauntings is to get rid of the witch.Be sure to check out the first book in the series, "Ghosts at Drayson Schoolhouse."

This giant collection includes a huge range of 20th-century first-hand accounts of hauntings, such as the American troops who repeatedly saw the ghosts of a dead platoon of men while on patrol in Vietnam; and the witnessed haunting of a house near Tintagel in Cornwall that led actress Kate Winslet to pull out of buying the property. It covers the full spectrum of credible hauntings, from poltergeists (the noisy, dangerous and frightening spirits that are usually associated with pubescent girls, like the Bell Witch), to phantoms (like the Afrits of Saudi Arabia) and seduction spirits (such as the Lorelei, which have lured German men to death). Also included are the notes of the most famous ghost hunters of the twentieth century such as Hans Holzer, Susy Smith (USA); Harry Price, Jenny Randles (UK); Joyce Zwarycz (Australia), Eric Rosenthal (South Africa), and Hwee Tan (Japan). Plus essays by such names as Robert Graves, Edgar Cayce, and M. R. James outlining their own - often extraordinary - conclusions as to just what ghosts might be; along with a full bibliography and list of useful resources.

A ghost is an apparition of a person, now deceased, that manifests itself as a living being. But that is only part of the story, and other cultures have paranormal phenomena of their own which have been absorbed into their mythology stretching back through time. This book examines many of the classic cases of hauntings around the world. Not only does it discuss the ghostly tales of kings, queens, nobles, murderers and their victims, and the real story behind "The Exorcist," but it also reveals the ghostly phenomena connected with more modern celebrities, from James Dean to Elvis Presley. Also examined in detail are chilly apparitions of ghost animals, inanimate objects, and even haunted places from the classic haunted house to a possessed shopping mall.
