Overview

There are certain towns that we all associate with ghost stories and sightings. But creepy encounters happen everyday all throughout this country-in towns that you may never have heard of, to normal people, just like you!

With Ghostly Adventures, you can travel to these terrifying towns and share in the scare. Let ghost guru, Christopher Balzano, be your guide through the jaw-dropping true tales that happen all around the U.S., in places like:

  • the Boston hotel where old Mr. Parker returns to check on his guests
  • the lost village of Dudleytown, Connecticut, where all residents vanished without a trace
  • the Summerwind Mansion in northeast Wisconsin, whose secret compartment housed a man's corpse for years
Terrifying true tales and frightening facts come together to create hours of eerie entertainment that you can read on your own or out loud with friends. With Ghostly Adventures, you can stop just wondering about ghosts and get to know them yourself!

Christopher Balzano: is a teacher and folklorist. He has been investigating the unknown for twelve years and is currently running the Massachusetts Paranormal Crossroads website. His writing has appeared in The Haunted Times, Mystery Magazine, as well as Unexplained Paranormal Magazine.

    a recommended read for new-bies of the paranormal enthusiast community

    I really enjoyed reading this book, overall. As a 'seasoned' paranormal enthusiast and veteran reader of many ghostly haunting books, I found this one very reader-friendly. I highly recommend it for ghostly enthusiasts.
    The format is such that the first quarter of the book overviews the basics of paranormal investigating and the methods/equipment used. The author also explains how the equipment works, and why it is used.
    I think this would be good for those new to the field or topic.
    The rest gave brief, chilling accounts of real, known hauntings here in America. It also includes photos and references for paranormal radio shows and websites. The only part I was disappointed with was some of the stories were too brief or too vague. It made for great reading during my hour lunch break. It's definitely worth the money for the quality and quantity of content.

    Credibility?

    I just looked at this book to possibly purchase as a gift. As a Connecticut resident who has always been interested in ghosts and the like, I've done some research and even excursions.

    In the summary, it talks about the mystery of Dudleytown where everyone disappeared without a trace... that's not the true story at all. People left or died gradually. There seemed to be an abundance of strange occurrences and cases of insanity, but an entire village did not vanish.

    It's kind of turned me off from the book entirely...
