Book Synopsis To Heaven or Hell: The biography on the short, turbulent life of Thomas Munro Winter, the Ghost of North Road Station, Darlington, and the wife he left behind. by : Darrell S. Nixon
Download or read book To Heaven or Hell: The biography on the short, turbulent life of Thomas Munro Winter, the Ghost of North Road Station, Darlington, and the wife he left behind. written by Darrell S. Nixon and published by Darrell S. Nixon. This book was released on 2024-10-14 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On one cold winter’s night in the 1850s, around midnight, a young nightwatchman is walking the grounds of the railway station at North Road, Darlington. Feeling the chill in the air, he hurries down to the porter’s cellar, where he knows there is a warm fire where he can get warm and have something to eat. Sitting opposite the fire, and turning up the gas, he notices a strange man, wearing a stand-up collar, a cut-away coat with gilt buttons and a scotch cap on his head, coming out of the coal shed followed by his dog, a large black retriever. The strange man moves directly in front of the fire, staring intently with a smile at the alarmed nightwatchman. Suddenly the strange man lunges at the watchman with his fist, followed by his dog who goes for the poor man’s leg. The nightwatchman retaliates and hits back at his stranger, but his fist goes through him and onto the wall behind. The strange man recovers, clicks at his dog, and both he and his four-legged companion return to the coal shed from whence they came. The nightwatchman shortly follows, but neither the stranger nor his black dog is nowhere to be found. This is the ghost story given by James Durham and was published in 1891 by W. T. Stead in “Real Ghost Stories”, and it was later revealed a clerk of the Stockton and Darlington Railway Company, called Thomas Munro Winter, had committed suicide nearby and his body had been lain in the exact cellar before being transported for burial years before. Who exactly was this mysterious stranger, why did he go for the nightwatchman, and importantly, what poor circumstances did the poor man have before ending his life? This is the biography of that apparition, Thomas Munro Winter, and the short turbulent life he had, and whilst this strange event has been wrote many times before, this book is the first time the full, or at least most of the facts of his life, and that of his widowed wife, have been laid out to rest, if only Thomas Munro Winter and his dog could do the same… Disclaimer: This book deals with depression and suicide in the early Victorian era.

Book Synopsis Haunted Pet Stories by : Mary Beth Crain
Download or read book Haunted Pet Stories written by Mary Beth Crain and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2011-07-19 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since ancient times, stories have abounded concerning the existence of ghost animals. From the Native American animal spirits, to the menacing demon dogs of medieval England, to present day encounters with animal apparitions, there can be little doubt that animals, like people, live after death and pass back and forth between this world and the next. In the realm of the paranormal, experiences concerning deceased pets who revisit the living are common events. Like the ghosts of humans, pet ghosts return for various reasons. Sometimes they appear to say goodbye. Sometimes they want to reassure their grieving owners that they are all right, and that their spirits are always with them. And sometimes, as they often did in life, they are guarding their beloved humans, delivering a message or a warning. "Haunted Pets" covers a wide range of encounters with animal ghosts. Some of these encounters are comforting; others are terrifying. In general, when pets return in ghostly form, they provide comfort and protection to the living. But there are other less benign phantom creatures who have been known to haunt places of violence, or exact revenge upon humans for evil deeds which, while long past, have somehow evaded justice.

Goodreads Choice Award Winner Locus Finalist Galaxy “Alex” Stern is the most unlikely member of Yale’s freshman class. Raised in the Los Angeles hinterlands by a hippie mom, Alex dropped out of school early and into a world of shady drug-dealer boyfriends, dead-end jobs, and much, much worse. In fact, by age twenty, she is the sole survivor of a horrific, unsolved multiple homicide. Some might say she’s thrown her life away. But at her hospital bed, Alex is offered a second chance: to attend one of the world’s most prestigious universities on a full ride. What’s the catch, and why her? Still searching for answers, Alex arrives in New Haven tasked by her mysterious benefactors with monitoring the activities of Yale’s secret societies. Their eight windowless “tombs” are the well-known haunts of the rich and powerful, from high-ranking politicos to Wall Street’s biggest players.
