Summary

The Encyclopedia of Haunted Places is the first directory to be written by dozens of the world's leading paranormal investigators. Research notes, location background, first-hand accounts, and many anomalous photographs featuring ghostly manifestations comprise the hundreds of haunted listings in this directory.

For years, paranormal investigative groups have been studying their local ghosts with scientific equipment as well as with more esoteric methods, such as psychics and séances. This directory is a repository of some of their most profound cases. From across the United States, Canada, and many spots around the globe, ghost investigators tell of their sometimes harrowing experiences, share their research, and give readers an overview of both well-known and obscure haunted locales. 

From private residences to inns and restaurants, battlefields to museums and libraries, graveyards to churches, The Encyclopedia of Haunted Places will offer supernatural tourists a guide to points of interest through the eyes of the ghost hunters. This reference also offers names, addresses, phone numbers, and Web addresses to each location covered. Feeling brave? You may just want to stop and visit some ghosts on your next trip. Jeff Belanger is a voracious fan of the unexplained. He's been studying and writing about the supernatural for regional and national publications since 1997. 

Belanger is the founder of Ghostvillage.com, the Internet's largest supernatural community, which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors per year. He's the author of: The World's Most Haunted Places: From the Secret Files of Ghostvillage.com (New Page Books 2004), and The Encyclopedia of Haunted Places (New Page Books 2005).

About the Author

Since then, he's been a writer and journalist for various newspapers and magazines, and in 1999 he launched Ghostvillage.com as a repository for his writings on the subject of the supernatural. The Website has since grown to become the largest paranormal community on the Web, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors per year. He currently haunts Bellingham, Massachusetts, with his wife, Megan.

    Congratulations! 
    By turning this book over, you have effectively snuck up on the two ninjas on the front cover. STRIKE NOW! Find your own inner ninja and release the five-headed hydra palm, or perform the spinning ax-kick of One Thousand Band-Aids. Go ahead-you could use the training. I can tell. Perhaps I will let you take their places at my school, Kick Foot Academy. There you will learn the secret ways of the NINJA. Within this volume lay the answers to all these questions:   How do you take attendance in stealth class?   Can Joey and Johnny be bested by a mollusk?    When is Soup Day? Why should you fear it?    Will Red Moon Academy truly stop at nothing to shut down KFA? 
    You are moments away from knowing this and more. Join Joey and Johnny as they attempt to survive their classes, fulfill impossible missions, and defeat Red Moon. You will find, as they have, that the path of the ninja is long, dangerous, and very slippery in socks. . . .
