DOWNLOAD EBOOKFollow Josh and Katie Hopkins on a historical haunted tour of the Iowa Corridor. Learn about the urban legends and real ghost stories of the many locations they, as paranormal investigators, have researched.

Includes...* The Granger House Victorian Museum* Coe College* The Old Capitol (Iowa City)* Slater Hall at the University of Iowa* The "Outskirts" of the Corridor...and more! Without documented history, we as paranormal investigators would go into an investigation blind and would not have documentation to validate our experiences. With a field that is already not scientifically proven, we need history to back-up our experiences. History provides a catalyst for hauntings; it is the fuel and we, as investigators, are the flame. Let's explore Iowa's Haunted Corridor!

DOWNLOAD EBOOK" West Virginia boasts an unusually rich heritage of ghost tales. Originally West Virginians told these hundred stories not for idle amusement but to report supernatural experiences that defied ordinary human explanation. From jealous rivals and ghostly children to murdered kinsmen and omens of death, these tales reflect the inner lives—the hopes, beliefs, and fears—of a people. Like all folklore, these tales reveal much of the history of the region: its isolation and violence, the passions and bloodshed of the Civil War era, the hardships of miners and railroad laborers, and the lingering vitality of Old World traditions.
