Get to know the true spirit of Dallas with this guide to haunted houses, hotels, museums and more—includes photos! Tales of the strange and supernatural echo through the streets and halls of the Big D. At the Renaissance-inspired Majestic Theater, it is rumored that the curtains are lowered by ghostly hands, and it is said that there is a sadness that lingers at the Sixth Floor Museum—in the room where Oswald aimed at JFK. Travel downtown to the grand Adolphus Hotel, where guests from the turn of the century still dance to the strains of a phantom waltz, but beware of the stretch of road along White Rock Lake where a mysterious force kills the engines of unwary motorists. Local author and ghost enthusiast Rita Cook journeys into the darkest corners of the Texas heartland with this chilling collection of stories.

My family is a group of paranormal investigators. Each one of us grew up in a different era and has helped make the next generation of investigators better by digging deeper and deeper into our family's spiritual gifts of mediumship. The cases in this book are real and extremely personal to my family as they shaped who we are as individuals and as a family. I hope they touch your heart as much as they have touched ours. "Unlike many titillating true ghost story collections, this one stands out as being very personal and close to the heart. Brown's compassion for the dead is side by side with her curiosity to learn the backstories of the deceased." -J. Elliott, Author, Ghost Lite "From her earliest memories of the jovial 'man in blue' to the sad and frightening tale of the woman in white, Leitreanna Brown has lived the words she writes. One has the overwhelming feeling that somewhere, perhaps just at the edge of town, the denizens of other realms hold sway and the only truth that can be found is in the dances of shadows." -Jack Cary, Author, Paranormal Planet "A wonderful text of how a shaman is chosen and the transformation of Leitreanna into the spirits leader she is today." -Willie Gibson, Shaman

A veteran music journalist explores rock-n-roll’s bayou roots in “a jolting 18-track joy ride [that] unlocks secrets and back-stories worth savoring” (The Wall Street Journal). The bayou of the American south—stretching from Houston, Texas, to Mobile, Alabama—is a world all its own, with a rich cultural heritage that has had an outsized influence on musicians across the globe. In this unique study of marsh music, Dave Thompson goes beyond the storied stomping grounds of New Orleans to discover secret legends and vivid mythology in the surrounding wilderness. In Bayou Underground, the people who have called the bayou home—such as Bob Dylan, Jerry Reed, Nick Cave, Bo Didley, a one-armed Cajun backwoodsman, and gator hunter named Amos Moses—are unearthed through their own words, their lives and music, and interviews with residents from the region. Included interviews with legendary musicians like Jerry Reed and Bo Didley, Bayou Underground is part travelogue, part social history, and part lament for a way of life that has now all but disappeared.

29 and unmarried, gasp! - can you think of anything worse? In 1920s rural Canada, Valancy Stirling is considered "past it" and with a controlling, nagging mother and petty gossips for relatives she feels trapped in the life she has ended up in and when she is diagnosed with a terminal heart condition and given a year to live, it seems she will die without ever experiencing happiness. And so, she rebels. She leaves her family home slamming the door as she does and moves in with her old friend Cissy and starts working as a housekeeper. The independence is intoxicating - as is a growing friendship with local man, Barney Snaith. It looks as though Valancy will have love to warm her heart in her final months. But secrets on both sides threaten to ruin things. The intoxicating story of love and loss is perfect for fans of Elizabeth Gaskell and Jodie Picoult. Lucy Maud (L.M.)
