Book Synopsis Midnight, Ghosts, and Gold! by : Bernard Luthi
Download or read book Midnight, Ghosts, and Gold! written by Bernard Luthi and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four friends set off in search of treasure after discovering an old map in the attic and end up finding adventure as they follow the map's path through a local haunted house. Andrew and his three best friends, Michael, Daniel, and William, live in the sleepy California town of Telane, a place where nothing interesting ever happens. Once upon a time, Telane was an exciting place-a Gold Rush boomtown. Now, the boys' families struggle to make ends meet. When Andrew and Michael find an old map in Michael's attic, the four boys embark on a treasure hunt. They're looking for fun, but they're also hopeful. What if the map is real? A long hidden stash of gold could solve all their problems. Their first stop: an abandoned mansion that's supposed to be haunted. As they venture deeper into the mansion and the mystery, they realize they're not the only ones on the hunt. They have followers-some friendly, some dangerous. Tunnels beneath the house lead them to an underground river, and soon they're more concerned with finding their way home than locating treasure. Weird noises, lights, and the sudden appearance of a mysterious guide, all point to one frightening conclusion: the mansion really is haunted! Who, or what, is really lost? The kids or the treasure? And is a heap of hidden gold really worth a bigger heap of danger?

Book Synopsis Dramatic Apparitions and Theatrical Ghosts by : Ann C. Hall
Download or read book Dramatic Apparitions and Theatrical Ghosts written by Ann C. Hall and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ghosts haunt the stages of world theatre, appearing in classical Greek drama through to the plays of 21st-century dramatists. Tracing the phenomenon across time and in different cultures, the chapters collected here examine their representation, dramatic function, and what they may tell us about the belief systems of their original audiences and the conditions of theatrical production. As illusions of illusions, they foreground many dramatic themes common to a wide variety of periods and cultures. Arranged chronologically, this collection examines how ghosts represent political change in Athenian culture in three plays by Aeschylus; their function in traditional Japanese drama; the staging of the supernatural in the dramatic liturgy of the early Middle Ages; ghosts within the dramatic works of Middleton, George Peele, and Christopher Marlowe, and the technologies employed in the 18th and 19th centuries to represent the supernatural on stage. Coverage of the dramatic representation of ghosts in the 20th and 21st centuries includes studies of Noël Coward's Blithe Spirit, August Wilson's Pittsburgh Cycle, plays by Sam Shepard, David Mamet, and Sarah Ruhl, Paddy Chayefsky's The Tenth Man, Suzan-Lori Parks' Topdog/Underdog, and the spectral imprint of Shakespeare's ghosts in the Irish drama of Marina Carr, Martin McDonagh, William Butler Yeats, and Samuel Beckett. The volume closes by examining three contemporary American indigenous plays by Anishinaabe author, Alanis King.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When they ring the bell at the house with the dusty windows and tarnished nameplate to inquire about the advertised “Saturday Person,” Thruppence and Tim don’t know what they’re getting themselves into. A Saturday job sounds ideal! But had that nameplate been properly cleaned, Thruppence and Tim might not have been so keen to enter . . . Pressured by the stern Minister Beeston from the Department of Economies, the Ministry of Ghosts has been given three months to prove the existence or nonexistence of ghosts, or else it will be shut down! As it seems that children are particularly magnetic to ghosts and supernatural beings, Thruppence and Tim are hired to join the ministry’s ghost-catching team. And although neither of them is scared by talk of ghosts or monsters, they are unprepared for what they’re about discover! Filled with fun, humor, and twists and turns, this is the perfect book for anyone who loved Harry Potter and who is looking for something similar to Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book—just not quite as scary.

Book Synopsis Ghosts and Goosebumps by : Jack Solomon
Download or read book Ghosts and Goosebumps written by Jack Solomon and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1994-03-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ghosts and Goosebumps is a rich collection of folktales and superstitions that capture the oral traditions of central and southeastern Alabama. In its pages one can glimpse the long-lost horse-and-buggy times, when people sat up all night with the dead and dying, hoed and handpicked cotton, drew water from wells, and met the devil rather regularly. The book is divided into three parts--tales, superstitions, and slave narratives. The spirits of treasure-keepers, poltergeists, murderers and the murdered, wicked men and good-men-and-true float through the book's first section. Sue Peacock, for example, recalls seeing the ghost of her brother, and E.C. Nevin describes a mysterious light in a swamp. In other tales, reports of supernatural experiences are proved to be rationally explicable--Lee Wilson's devil in the cemetery turns out to be a cow and chains rattling near New Tabernacle Church in Coffee County belong not to specters but to hogs. The superstitions are arranged according to subject and include such topics as love and marriage, weather and the seasons, wish making, bad luck, signs, and portents. Anonymous tellers confide that it is bad luck to carry ashes out after dark, to let a locust holler in your hand, to rock an empty rocking chair, to let your fishing pole cross someone else's, or to have a two-dollar bill (unless one corner has been removed). The slave narratives, selected from the Works Progress Administration Folklore Collection, are substantial and yield a fascinating view of nineteenth century African-American folk life, replete with sillies and lazy men, preachers and witches, brave little boys, and reluctant bridegrooms. Although the times and places have changed, the spirit of the folk is unaltered. Taken together, these folktales are marvelously diverse--by turns fearsome, fantastical, witty, ribald, charmingly innocent--showing people from all backgrounds, their endless vices and occasional virtues, their hopes, fears, and loves.

Book Synopsis Haunted Houses and Family Ghosts of Kentucky by : William Lynwood Montell
Download or read book Haunted Houses and Family Ghosts of Kentucky written by William Lynwood Montell and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2001-09-21 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Kentucky native and folk studies scholar presents a collection of haunting legends and stories of spirits from across the Bluegrass State. William Lynwood Montell has spent years documenting Kentucky’s rich legacy of ghostly visitations. Many of the stories were collected from elders by younger generations and are recounted here exactly as they were gathered. This volume introduces spirits such as the Tan Man of Pike County, who trudges invisibly through a house accompanied by the smell of roses, and the famed Gray Lady of Liberty Hall in Frankfort, a houseguest who never left. Montell tells the story of the ghost of Daniel Boone calling upon the statesman Henry Clay shortly before his death. He also recounts the tale of ghouls that haunt the rehearsal house of the band The Kentucky Headhunters. Readers will find accounts of haunted libraries, mansions, log cabins, bathrooms, furniture, hotels, and distilleries, as well as reports of eerie visitations from passed-on grandmothers, husbands, daughters, uncles, cousins, babies, slaves, Civil War soldiers, dogs, sheep, and even wildcats. Almost every county in Kentucky is represented. Though the book emphasizes the stories themselves, Montell offers an introduction discussing how local history, and local character, are communicated across the generations in these colorful stories.

Granny needs help with counting and calculations, with baking eggs and… with experiencing adventures. Granny is a superhero by profession. Meg loves adventures. She offers to help Granny. This results in a colourful collection of short stories, each more beautiful and funnier than the other.
