DOWNLOAD EBOOKHAUNTED PLACES EXIST all over the world and are visited by ghostly spirits from time to time. Some of these spirits make one appearance and never appear again, but some keep coming back to the same place over and over. The small community of Lydia in Clinton, South Carolina, is considered by many to be haunted. Several apparitions have appeared over the years at Lydia, but the most popular is known as the headless woman. Stories have existed for well over a hundred years about people that have seen her. Groups of people have hunted her many times, but she has never appeared to more than two people at one time. She has always appeared at the time and place of her own choosing. One thing is sure: if she does appear to someone, it will be a totally unexpected visit.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt was Halloween, and Jan, and her friends Misty and Michelle decided to dig up a legend that should have been just that, but we all know teenagers feel that they are invincible, and nothing bad will happen to them and besides bad things only happen to other people or do they? Legend has it that an old woman who lived in a cabin all alone in the woods that these girls are going into was accused of witchcraft, but was never proven by the townspeople over a hundred years ago. One of the daughters of the townspeople went missing in the woods and was found dead on the steps of the old lady's cabin. When the old lady arrived back to her cabin after gathering berries she was startled by an angry mob of people with torches blazing and shouting "You murderer, You killed her." Immediately, the old woman was grabbed by the angry mob, and held down next to the dead girl’s body, and one of the people from the mob said, "For what you have done we sentence you to death by decapitation." The old lady screamed out as a river of tears flowed down her cheeks, but the angry mob was in no mood to hear what the old lady had to say, all they wanted was swift justice. Then one of the men carrying an ax in his hand said, "I hope you rot in hell witch." Then the ax came down and the old woman's head rolled off the cabin steps. The old lady's decapitated body was buried behind her cabin along with her head.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA passionate romance leads to supernatural mystery in this historical thriller based on The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. When Sleepy Hollow’s new schoolmaster, Ichabod Crane, arrives in the spooky little village, Katrina Van Tassel is instantly drawn to him. Through their shared love of books and music, they form a friendship that quickly develops into romance. Ichabod knows he has nothing to offer the wealthy Katrina—unlike her childhood friend-turned-enemy, Brom Van Brunt, who is the suitor Katrina’s father favors. But when romance gives way to passion, Ichabod and Katrina sneak into the woods after dark to be together—all while praying they do not catch sight of Sleepy Hollow’s legendary Headless Horseman. That is, until All Hallows’s Eve, when Ichabod suddenly disappears, leaving Katrina alone and in a perilous position. Enlisting the help of her friend—and rumored witch—Charlotte Jansen, Katrina seeks the truth of Ichabod Crane’s disappearance. What they find forces Katrina to question everything she once knew, and to wonder if the Headless Horseman is perhaps more than just a story after all.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA compelling investigation into supernatural events and local lore on Vancouver Island. Vancouver Island is known worldwide for its arresting natural beauty, but those who live here know that it is also imbued with a palpable supernatural energy. Researcher Shanon Sinn found his curiosity piqued by stories of mysterious sightings on the island—ghosts, sasquatches, sea serpents—but he was disappointed in the sensational and sometimes disrespectful way they were being retold or revised. Acting on his desire to transform these stories from unsubstantiated gossip to thoroughly researched accounts, Sinn uncovered fascinating details, identified historical inconsistencies, and now retells these encounters as accurately as possible. Investigating 25 spellbinding tales that wind their way from the south end of the island to the north, Sinn explored hauntings in cities, in the forest, and on isolated logging roads. In addition to visiting castles, inns, and cemeteries, he followed the trail of spirits glimpsed on mountaintops, beaches, and water, and visited Heriot Bay Inn on Quadra Island and the Schooner Restaurant in Tofino to personally scrutinize reports of hauntings. Featuring First Nations stories from each of the three Indigenous groups who call Vancouver Island home—the Coast Salish, the Nuu-chah-nulth, and the Kwakwaka’wakw—the book includes an interview with Hereditary Chief James Swan of Ahousaht.
