William Alexander is a 13th generation Nantucket Native with ties back to the founding members of the original settlers of Sherburne. He has been looking into ghosts since his first paranormal experience at the age of eight. By thirteen he was performing ghost hunts on Nantucket and has since continued to do so nationwide. From 2003 to 2005, he wrote, produced and performed a one man show called The Nantucket Haunted Hike which garnered him recognition from celebrities, politicians and the general public. In 2005, he penned the book, "Haunted Nantucket Island" as a supplement to his tour. Now, after having been available for Kindle for a few years, the new edition of the book is here complete with a new story collected from another islander, stories as he had once told them on his tour, and an essay the author wrote for an online paranormal magazine. This new version of the book will delight, chill, and if you were ever a member of his tour group, bring back memories much like a ghost brings back a memory of a bygone era.
