With more than 400 years under its belt, the borough is filled with a history of both sweet and savory moments. It's hard to imagine Brooklyn as anything other than a concrete jungle. Who would guess that that first battle of the Revolutionary War was fought here? Or that the world's oldest subway is hidden beneath the streets of Boerum Hill? Or how an airplane fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the street in Park Slope? Hundreds of people pass by the Prison Ship Martyrs Monument in Fort Greene Park everyday. Virtually no one stops to read the plaque. If they did, they would learn that it is actually a grave, holding up to 15,000 bodies. Author Allison Huntington Chase, Brooklyn's own Madame Morbid, takes readers on a journey beyond the brownstones, to discover the hidden, macabre and bizarre throughout Brooklyn history.

What would you do if you ever encountered a spirit or otherworldly entity? Do you think you would flee the scene, screaming as you put as much distance between you and the unknown? Or would you try your hardest to communicate with the entity? The idea of ghosts and spirits is not a new concept. Records of ghosts have been reported since the beginnings of civilization as we know it. But nothing prepares you for the moment you eventually come face to face with a paranormal entity. This book covers many houses, public places and forests that are said to be the homes of the supernatural. In these places, the spirits are not shy in the presence of the living. Often they will whisper in a person's ear or touch the small of their back with their unseen, freezing fingertips. These spirits recollect fragments of their previous life-moments in which they too had been alive and well.Each haunted location in our world has a unique background-a context in which to approach each marvelously haunted place. Sometimes the world is cruel and will steal a young life, or make a person endure a brutal and painful death. It is important to understand why certain spirits we encounter in specific places may seem angry or upset, and we must interact with them in a manner that reflects our understanding of the life they had lived...

Book excerpt: Christopher Robert Young, Cry for short, told himself he went with Lexie to keep her safe, that it had nothing to do with his struggle to avoid hustling along the harbor like Moon and the others. Selling blow jobs for forty bucks, however, pales in comparison to what he finds in Cole's apartment above the funeral home. And even a hungry kid will only go so far to fill his stomach. In the ensuing struggle, Chris escapes but Lexie does not and that fact still haunts him.

Book excerpt: With almost 5 million copies sold 60 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic. Enriched by Jules Feiffer’s splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster’s offbeat fantasy are as beguiling as ever. “Comes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too.” --Phillip Pullman For Milo, everything’s a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he’s got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason. Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it’s exciting beyond his wildest dreams!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ghosts and other supernatural phenomena are widely represented throughout modern culture. They can be found in any number of entertainment, commercial, and other contexts, but popular media or commodified representations of ghosts can be quite different from the beliefs people hold about them, based on tradition or direct experience. Personal belief and cultural tradition on the one hand, and popular and commercial representation on the other, nevertheless continually feed each other. They frequently share space in how people think about the supernatural. In Haunting Experiences, three well-known folklorists seek to broaden the discussion of ghost lore by examining it from a variety of angles in various modern contexts. Diane E. Goldstein, Sylvia Ann Grider, and Jeannie Banks Thomas take ghosts seriously, as they draw on contemporary scholarship that emphasizes both the basis of belief in experience (rather than mere fantasy) and the usefulness of ghost stories. They look closely at the narrative role of such lore in matters such as socialization and gender. And they unravel the complex mix of mass media, commodification, and popular culture that today puts old spirits into new contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As quickly as I emerged from the bushes I turned and there, running toward us on the dirt road, was the most gruesome creature I had ever seen in my life. The creature was red and looked to be 10 to 12 feet tall and ran on four legs. On his back sat a human skeleton. Behind him sat the large, red setting sun. It looked as if the monster was riding out of the sun. The skeleton's jaw was agape as if he were laughing at us, jeering at us, striking fear into our hearts. The creature careened toward us at a frightening pace. I was almost frozen in fear. 'Run, Joseph, run!' I screamed. I reached over and grabbed the frightened boy with one hand and began to pull him along behind me as quickly as my legs would carry me. We ran back into the woods. The twigs and branches of the bushes and trees snapped as we plunged into the forest. The briars and thorns tore at our clothes and our flesh. Joseph emitted a scream. “Run faster!” he shouted. “It's right behind us!” The thunderous hooves got louder as the creature picked up speed and bore down on us." The Legend of the Red Ghost is inspired by actual events as told by 16-year-old Kip Young. Kip craves adventure and an escape from the uneventful life in a frontier boom town. Kip's life is anything but ideyllic. His younger brother, Charlie, suffers a congenital heart defect that threatens his life. One evening, a strange creature appears in the countryside terrorizing the townsfolk. It was described as running on four legs and covered with red fur. Most ominous of all was the spectral rider that sat on its back. Witnesses described a human skeleton that brandished a sword. Charlie soon becomes convinced the monster, known as "the Red Ghost," is the incarnation of Death itself. Charlie overhears several townsfolk discussing the monster. They refer to it as one of the seven horsemen of the Apocalypse. Others refer to it as the devil's stead. Certain he is going to die, Charlie becomes depressed. Kip decides to track down the creature to discover its true origin and protect his brother.

We are about to embark on a voyage into a dark universe that comprises all sorts of bizarre true stories and anomalies, from ghosts, hauntings, and paranormal happenings to strange sightings, poltergeists, invisible barriers and true stories of unexplained phenomena.
