Book excerpt: Geraldine Ryan-Lush strikes again, in this, her latest offering of ghost tales, quickly being hailed as some of her most deliciously shivery work yet, in this amazing collection of true ghost stories from across Newfoundland! A busy, industrial production plant in Pleasantville, NL, once used as a morgue in WW2, is home to resident apparitions of soldiers, and poltergeist activity on a regular basis, leaving workers numb with terror, who dare not report the hauntings, for fear of reprisal. Who IS the girl on the road in Maddox Cove, who entices unsuspecting drivers to her aid, only to leave them paralysed with fear? A hobby period- photography enthusiast buys an impressive 1900 portrait of children in a Water Street antique shop, only to discover the genteel children from another century are anything but rested in their new abode. Terror awaits! And it's not only in the film "Psycho" does one stay in an Inn which mysteriously has no other guests. Try Twillingate! From cell phones that are possessed, to a dead taxi driver who can't leave his cabbie, to Crisis Apparitions from London, England, to a skeptical Conception Bay police officer's trauma, the many stories in this collection will tantalize, terrorize, bewilder, and defy truth. But amazingly, they ARE TRUE, and delectably served up by one of Newfoundland's most prolific authors, who has already proven herself master of the paranormal genre, with her best-selling and shivers galore "Hannigan's Hand" books, constantly in the same company as James Patterson and Stephen King! Utilizing substantive, orally-rendered encounters, and pepperings of historical research as perspective, the author theorizes, mesmerizes and holds you spellbound. Settle back and enjoy the ride, but make sure you have company in the next room. You just may need them!

Its waters are a graveyard for countless wrecked ships. Its lore is full of tales about treachery and murder. And it was once the haunt of pirates. Haunt, indeed! Newfoundland and Labrador has tales of the supernatural that date back centuries, to a time before Canada even existed as a nation. Here the ghosts not only lurk in old houses and forlorn cemeteries, they come up out of the sea to walk the decks of ships before the eyes of terrified crewmen. They lament out on the ice where seventy-seven men perished in the Newfoundland Sealing Disaster of 1914. And in St. Johns the courthouse is said to be haunted by the ghost of Catherine Snow, who was hanged in 1834 for the murder of her husband. Here we find tales, both personal and historical, of ghostly haunting and unexplained happenings; from the Old Hag to headless ghosts. So read on if you dare!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The culmination of Brad Steiger’s 50 years of paranormal research, this book is a bold telling of true ghost stories and firstperson encounters with the supernatural. Arranged topically, it covers every sort of ghost and haunting: poltergeists, shadow beings, and phantoms alongside haunted apartments, hotels, and trains. From ghosts that still haunt Ohio’s State Reformatory, otherwise known as Shawshank, to Abe Lincoln’s regular consultation with mediums, this compendium delves into the true scary stories from both historical documents and personal accounts. In its 30 chapters, spirits represented include the good (“Ghosts that Saved Lives”), the bad (“Invisible Home Wreckers”), and the ugly (“Demonic Spirits That Whisper Commands to Kill”). The book goes on to unearth the ghastly goingson and macabre manifestations at haunted places such as museums, churches, graveyards, restaurants, and sacred sites while also instructing how to perform a cleansing ritual to rid a home of unwanted spectral visitors. This second edition is updated to include new stories and compelling evidence of both the existence of ghosts and proof of hauntings that will entertain, induce chills, and make the doubtful believe.

Alice's world is falling apart. Her parents are getting a divorce, and they've cancelled their yearly cottage trip -- the one thing that gets Alice through the school year. Instead, Alice and her mom are heading to some small town where Alice's mom will be a live-in nurse to a rich elderly lady. The house is huge, imposing and spooky, and everything inside is meticulously kept and perfect -- not a fun place to spend the summer. Things start to get weird when Alice finds a dollhouse in the attic that's an exact replica of the house she's living in. Then she wakes up to find a girl asleep next to her in her bed -- a girl who looks a lot like one of the dolls from the dollhouse . . . When the dollhouse starts to change when Alice isn't looking, she knows she has to solve the mystery. Who are the girls in the dollhouse? What happened to them? And what is their connection to the mean and mysterious woman who owns the house?

Book excerpt: From The Publisher: The O'Brien Family are quite attached to their 150-year-old saltbox in the Irish Loop of coastal Newfoundland. Nothing makes them happier than their summer sojourns inside its charming, rustic, 3-story walls. And Ms. O'Brien, the wife and mother, is a mainlander who hardly knows what an ocean is, or how to play tidley or read by lamplight. She is especially fascinated with the place and its journey back into a time long gone. She and her daughter Shelley, one of a twin, and extra sensitive to the presence of ghostly entities for harmless fun, are particularly entertained by the tales of one delightful old man, Dan Hannigan. But old Dan Hannigan is harboring a terrifying secret about his past, so terrifying that he has blocked it forever in his memory box, never to be revealed, under a long-ago priest's threats of eternal doom. One dark and gloomy night when a storm suddenly raged, and the kettle, woodfire, and company of his hosts were especially inviting to the lonely old man, he caves in and tells the forbidden story. Horror unimaginable is unearthed, and the wholesome, innocent lives of a family and their friends are changed forever. Is old Dan Hannigan just a crusty old codger who stepped in a ghost path many years ago, or is he now a demon to be feared? And will the Ouija Board, in a seance conducted by a senior lady, secretive ghost chaser be enough to put the visiting ghost woman and all the other restless, angry spirits to rest? Readers should be prepared for a ghost ride to hell, and a surprise ending they will never forget, in this expanded, second edition to the chilling bestseller. Editorial Reviews: Based on a true Newfoundland ghost story! "Reminds one of R.L. Stine, but better! Ryan-Lush fleshes out her characters! Great read! Chock full of chills! (From Chapters, Canada's National Bookstore chain.) "Ryan-Lush evokes classic sensibilities back into the scary-tale genre.." (Goodreads) "Ryan-Lush a vivid, imaginative writer. One of her finest to date. (Barnes & Noble) Purchased by the Newfoundland and Labrador Provincial Public Libraries Board for use in all libraries in the province."

Book excerpt: Find out what's lurking inside ....Hannigan's Hand! Many years ago, a young Dan Hannigan witnessed a horrific headless spectre and poltergeist activity which shook him to the core. A priest had to intervene, to exorcise the demon which invaded his campsite and him, following his haplessly using a remote beach trail for some summer work. While exorcising the demon from his spirit-possessed hand, the priest told Dan he was being punished by the ghosts of a tragic shipwreck which had happened there a year before. He also told him he was never to repeat what happened at the camp that terrible night, OR THE CURSE WOULD BE UPON HIM, AND ANYONE ELSE WHO HEARD THE STORY. 60 years passed. Old Dan Hannigan mellowed, and began to believe the priest's warnings were all hogwash. Until a visit from an old friend and four innocent teenagers prompted the telling of the story again. Things start happening! THE SPIRITS ARE BACK, MORE VENGEFUL THAN EVER! Is old Dan Hannigan just a crusty old codger who stepped in a ghost path many years ago, or is he now....something worse!

Book excerpt: Ghosts, a family curse, buried secrets -- and two girls who have to figure it all out. A new book from an acclaimed author, for fans of Coraline, Doll Bones and The Night Gardener. For the first time, Ruth is heading to Newfoundland to stay with family she's never met instead of spending the summer traveling with her dad. When she arrives, she finds life in the small community of Buckle very different from Toronto--everyone knows everyone else, and some of them believe in ghosts and The Sight and family curses. Ruth's cousin Ruby is also staying for the summer, and the two discover they have a lot in common: they both lost their moms when they were two years old, they're the same age and they even like the same food. But while Ruby believes in spirits and fairies, Ruth believes in science and cold, hard facts. When they find ominous information on some tombstones in the local cemetery, Ruth and Ruby start investigating their family's past and discover that twin girls are born in every generation, and every set of twins dies young, leaving their children without mothers. What's more, one of the twins always has The Sight and can see the Ghost Road that leads to the mysterious lost settlement of Slippers Cove. What happened there? What does it have to do with their family? And who is the ghostly presence that keeps visiting Ruth late at night? The answers lie somewhere along the Ghost Road . . . if they can only find it.
