DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe most haunted neighborhood in America? That's what many are calling Old Louisville, an extensive preservation district with hundreds of old mansions and beautiful homes in Kentucky's largest city. Wherever you go in this eye-popping neighborhood, it seems that a haunted house is not far away. Or a haunted church, a haunted street corner, or a haunted park. Over the last decade, so many stories of paranormal activity have surfaced that Old Louisville has gained the reputation as being one of the spookiest locations in the country. David Dominé discovered this for himself after purchasing an old home on Old Louisville's famed Millionaires Row in 1999. A self-proclaimed skeptic, the food writer dismissed rumors of a mischievous resident poltergeist named Lucy when he moved in, but he quickly found himself at a loss to explain the disembodied footsteps and mysterious odors that seemed to plague the old house. Soon, he was talking to neighbors and fellow homeowners, and it seemed that everyone had stories of strange events and supernatural occurrences in their own dwellings. As a result, David set out to document and research these reports and began writing about the neighborhood; in the process he uncovered a wealth of fascinating history and ghostly tales that convinced him this historic neighborhood is like no other in the country. If you liked David Dominé's Ghosts of Old Louisville series, you'll love True Ghost Stories and Eerie Legends from America's Most Haunted Neighborhood. Edited and updated, this collection brings together the most popular and chilling tales from his previous books about one of the most fascinating neighborhoods in the country.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPure spooky tales put to the side, listed here are the most haunted places within each state, many of which have been widely documented some for generations. What makes a site supremely haunted though? What is it that distinguishes one place breathtakingly eerie? What is the most haunted place in America? The answer isn�t so straightforward, as it can be one of a couple of things, or a combination thereof. Many sights are vaulted to top of the terror list due to the violence that led to their hauntings � think mass murders involving axes and rifles. Others aren�t so much terrifying as they are extremely active, such as many of our nation�s historic hotels and theaters. In fact, hauntings occur virtually everywhere across America, from houses, hotels, and theaters to universities, government buildings, and even highways making them the scariest places in the US.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGhost stories were very popular with college students at the end of the nineteenth century and the start of the twentieth. They still are today. As a college president, I sometimes told ghost stories to students on Halloween. One student wrote, The next time that the darkness closes in, the wind blows through the trees, rustling the crisp dry leaves, and the owls come out, screeching into the clear and starry night and soaring through the darkness to grab its prey from under the leaves, think twice about the spirited haunting that seems to frequent our stately campus. As the tales of campus hauntings grew, we concluded that our campus surely was Americas most haunted campus. I assured the students that these were only stories. It was not the ghosts that aroused their fears; it was their fears that aroused the ghosts.
