Curious New England: The Unconventional Traveler’s Guide to Eccentric Destinations, Joseph A. Citro and Diane E. Foulds, 2003, $19.95
newinkl3.gif (884 bytes)
OK, it’s not really a ghost book, but it’s fabulous anyway. The subtitle says it all. New England is truly a Cabinet of Curiosities, and this indispensable guide directs you to its most bizarre, off the wall, and unsettling exhibits. Some evoke hilarity, some horror. Discover singing sand, glowing tombstones, ghostly squirrels, and a musical instrument said to cause madness. Marvel at the most mysterious manuscript in the world. Visit a miniature replica of the Holy Land or climb carved stone steps leading . . . nowhere. Read about a cursed statue in Maine, standing stones, and artwork made from insect parts. An absolutely irresistible book. I’m packing my bags!

Ghosts I Have Known, Curt Norris, 1994, index, photos, 154 pp. Sorry, no longer available. Ask us to find you a nice used copy.
newinkl3.gif (884 bytes)
Norris, a long-time science and medical writer who once was assigned by the Boston Sunday Herald to spend a night in every haunted locale in New England, tells many of these stories from first-hand experience.From the first recorded ghost in New England to a possessed truck. From bootlegger ghosts and a haunted violin to a ghost who tried to telephone for help, Norris writes with "the almost certain knowledge that other dimensions co-exist which occasionally infringe upon the ordered, familiar and comfortable world we know."

Haunted Happenings, Robert Ellis Cahill, 1992, photos, 104 pp. $8.95
newinkl3.gif (884 bytes)
Fascinating and detailed stories plus lots of photographs, some taken with infra-red film; several very unnerving. Brace yourself. Ghosts on the Misery Islands, a kissing ghost, the hideous ghost of a witch at the Joshua Ward House.

The Haunted Pram and Other True New England Ghost Stories, Edward Lodi, 2002, photos, appendices, glossary, biblio, 177 pp. $14.95
newinkl3.gif (884 bytes)

The ghost of a palomino that gallops through a house, an ancient Bible that flew through the air at a man later accused of murdering his wife, some very nasty pirate ghosts, some super supernatural stories by late 19th early 20th-century journalist Sidney Dickinson—like the spirit voices who warned his wife of impending disaster and saved his child from a fiery death, and, of course, the haunted pram of the title, which wanders around its museum home, perhaps pushed by the restless spirit of a little boy who had worn braces and couldn’t run and play with the other children. A nice feature of this book is "From the Archives," which resurrects ghost stories from long out-of-print and obscure books of local history, folklore, and spiritualism. Tales from Wellfleet, Nantucket, Plymouth County, Holyoke, Plymouth, Boston, Brookline, Marblehead, Plympton, Cohasset, Wareham, Northhampton and Carver, Massachusetts, Hallowell and Loudon Hill, Appledore Island, The Isle of Shoals, Boone Island, Maine, White Island, New Hampshire, Stratford, Middletown, the Thimble Islands, Connecticut, New Shoreham, Block Island,North Kingston, Rhode Island. Several of the stories in this book are expanded from Lodi's very limited edition chapbook, Ghosts in Black and White.  Another wonderful collection from Lodi!

Haunted Ships of the North Atlantic, Robert Ellis Cahill, 1997, photos, line art, biblio, 88 pp $8.95
newinkl3.gif (884 bytes)
A riveting read from Cahill, author of the popular Haunted Happenings, who takes us on a voyage full of doomed ships, phantom sailors, horrifying shipwrecks, and cursed vessels. Well-known tales like the Great Eastern, haunted by a riveter who was walled up alive and not-so-well-known ones like the barge haunted by her slaughtered captain who spends eternity ordering all comers out of his cabin, believing them to be his murderer. Tales of shipwrecks, mysterious disappearances, and seagoing phantoms—all fascinating.

This great book of true encounters with the not-quite-dead will introduce you to the ghost of Wadell Pond, a 300-year-old Native American spirit who drags swimmers under by their feet. "Seth," a minister's ghost who haunted the closet where he shot himself, terrifying the young girl who occupied the room. "Harris," a dairy farmer who tried to manifest through a computer screen. A haunted gas station where time stands still. This is an outstanding book! I'm already looking for a sequel. THE SEQUEL, New England Ghost Files II, is NOT YET PUBLISHED. We'll let you know when it is available.
