Overview

Do UFOs, Bigfoot, and ghosts stalk the prairie? In Chasing Shadows, you will get a firsthand look at some of the most haunted and mysterious places in the Midwest through the eyes of author and paranormal investigator Larry Wilson. Join Larry as he takes you on a journey into the unexplained at Illinois' Williamsburg Hill, Springfield's Legacy Theater, and the mysterious "Graveyard X;" at Missouri's Rockcliffe Mansion, Morse Mill Hotel, and Kemper Military Academy; and at Iowa's notorious Villisca Ax Murder House. Not only has Larry personally investigated these places, he has experienced their phantoms firsthand.

In these pages, you will find out how the Villisca Ax Murder House personally changed Larry's approach to the supernatural, paranormal investigation, and life itself. Paranormal investigation is an exciting field, but it should also be approached with caution, as Larry found out the hard way. This book serves as a reminder that unraveling the mysteries of the supernatural may have consequences for the unprepared, because one never knows what may be lurking around the next corner.
