Book Description
Take an eerie journey through the historic town of Boston, where ghostly friars still occupy the land of their thirteenth-century monastery, and where Sarah Preston’s disembodied cries of ‘Pestilence!’ can sometimes be heard as her ghostly apparition jumps from the top of St Botolph’s Church. Her alleged former home, Church Key Studio, has seen many occupants come and go over the centuries – but does one of them still reside there in spirit?Also featured is the ancient Guildhall of St Mary’s, where a group of distinguished ghostly gentlemen hold board meetings in the upper hall while a lady apparition stares intently into the old prison cells. And explore the spectacular rooms and gardens of Fydell House, where previous occupants have been seen and heard, long after their deaths.This book tells the stories of many well-known locations, with first-hand testimonies of paranormal activity – from pubs, shops and restaurants to a former music venue. Including exclusive photographs and the results of paranormal investigations, some of the locations featured will surprise you ... and some of the chilling evidence will make your blood run cold.

Lily in the Loft
Author: Carol L. MacKay
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781927756911
Category : Newspapers
Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
"What do CNET pop culture writer Bonnie Burton, Governor General Award-winning poet David Zieroth, journalist/novelist Sparkle Hayter, novelist/screenwriter John Patrick Gillese, and Canadian sport journalist Dick Beddoes have in common besides growing up on the Canadian Prairies? They were all first published in the Young Co-operator's Pages, a section of the Saskatoon-based farm newspaper, The Western Producer. Violet McNaughton, a women's advocate and editor at the Producer, created the club for young writers in 1927. It continued on, inspiring a love of literature and writing in children for nearly 60 years. Lily in the Loft is a picture book for children ages 6-9. It is a fictional story, set in 1947 Saskatchewan, based on the experiences of thousands of children across all the prairie provinces (and even some outside this region) who eagerly awaited "newspaper day" to see their words in print. To this day, former Young Co-ops keep in touch with each other via a Facebook group. This is a book of regional historical interest. However, it is also a universal story about perseverance and determination in reaching one's goals."--

Ghost in the Mirror
Author: Leslie Rule
Publisher: Andrews McMeel Publishing
ISBN: 1449402798
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
The Gallup Organization reports that more than 32 percent of Americans have seen a ghost. More than half the population believes in the spiritual, cosmic, or supernatural. To Leslie Rule, such revelations come as no surprise. Rule has spent more than a decade researching specters and spirits and has chronicled her ghostly tales in three previous titles, Coast to Coast Ghosts, Ghosts Among Us, and When the Ghost Screams. Inside Ghost in the Mirror, Rule documents more than dozens of stories of paranormal apparitions that reveal themselves on the other side of the looking glass. Rule's painstaking archival research presents factual clues to each haunting, along with her own dramatic black-and-white photographs that capture the eerie unrest of the scenes she explores. "Whether they are bumping about our attics, hitchhiking on a moonlight road, or fraternizing with our reflections, ghosts tantalize us with their secrets." —Leslie Rule
