Book Description
Stories and photos that reveal the paranormal history of this Colorado city . . . Founded in 1859 and situated at the base of the Rocky Mountains, Boulder is small in size but harbors a big-city feel—and its rich past hides plenty of hair-raising lore.

Guests at one hotel might be surprised by the number of mysteries wrapped around the building, and local spirits have a standing reservation at a popular restaurant that was once a mortuary. In this spine-chilling book, authors Ann Alexander Leggett and Jordan Alexander Leggett offer up a tour of the tales that haunt this Colorado college town.

Ghosts of Pocatello
Author: John Brian
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1625840322
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
A small Idaho town with larger-than-life spirits is investigated by a founding member of the Scientific Paranormal Investigative Research Organization. From the Native American tribes who first inhabited the land to the gold rush prospectors who flocked to the burgeoning town in the 1860s, Pocatello’s legacy is defined by fascinating historical figures and colorful characters. But many restless souls from the city’s past refuse to fade quietly into history. Join author John Brian as he records the voices and visions that haunt Pocatello today. Whether it’s the long-dead theater devotee who still attends shows at Frazier Hall, the specter of a woman who evaded a judge at the Bannock County Courthouse, or the many spirits that haunt a farm built on sacred Shoshoni tribal land, this collection proves that the Gate City is flooded with ghosts. Includes photos! “The stories in the book, Brian explains, are not reminiscent of exaggerated late-night horror flicks, but rather, the real life stories from the people who experienced them.” —Idaho State Journal
