Book Description
Packed with chilling stories, GHOSTLY ENCOUNTERS is filled with practical information for anyone who dares to spend a night in a haunted house. Frances Kermeen bought the Myrtles Plantation of St. Francisville, LA, with the dream of turning the historic site into a cozy inn. But she was shocked to discover that the property was haunted. Instead of losing customers, however, business exploded. Since then, Kermeen has traveled to over 150 haunted inns and hotels throughout the U.S. and collected some of the creepiest ghost stories ever told-and they're all true. Readers will enter the Oatman Hotel, where the distinct outline of a man, once murdered in the room, remains imprinted on the sheets-no matter how many times the maids change them. And in the garden of the Myrtles Plantation, two little girls, who were poisoned there in 1824, are often seen playing.

Book Description
For ghost lovers who long for the adventure of the real thing, Ghost Stalkers Terry L Smith and Mark Jean have created the first comprehensive travel guide to more than 200 haunted hotels and bed and breakfast inns in America. Many locations have never been found in any other ghost book. Covering all 50 states, every region of the country is featured, with profiles of the most active and attractive haunted bed and breakfast inns and hotels in each state. It includes facts about the history, accommodations, food, entertainment, and most importantly, the supernatural activity. Each hotel and inn is ranked from one to five ghosts based on the 'haunted activity' level. Entries also include fascinating eyewitness interviews, haunted rooms, and behind-the-scenes stories of the resident ghosts at each inn and their startling, moving, and surprising encounters with visiting humans.

Book Description
These hotels have rooms where guests sometimes check in... and wish they could immediately check out! Haunted by their histories, the 11 hotels visited in this title have it all: rooms that turn icy cold for no reason; beds that suddenly have the impression of bodies lying down when none are present; shadowy figures carrying candles up stairways; handprints appearing on mirrors; doors slamming for no reason; and pictures flying off walls. Kids will be fascinated by the nonfiction histories that inspired these tales of paranormal activity. Whether or not the ghosts and their hauntings are real is left for the reader to decide. Haunted Hotels is part of Bearport’s Scary Places series.

Book Description
Based on actual reports of paranormal activity. During the 19th and 20th century, the Hacienda de Otero and surrounding ranch grounds were the target of repeated Apache Indian attacks. Historic documents confirm at least two documented murders during these attacks. Staff and visitors of the Tubac Golf Resort & Spa, a Historic Hotels of American Member, have disclosed their experiences of why the resort may be one of the most haunted sites in southern Arizona. You will hear about cowboys who refuse to leave the ranch and about the spirit of a murdered boy that has been heard and seen playing inside the Hacienda. A real historic site, the Otero ranch land was part of a Spanish land grant issued in 1789.

Book Description
True to its nickname, New Mexico enchants some souls so much they never leave. The Express St. James of Cimarron plays host to the cantankerous spirit of former owner Thomas James "T.J." Wright. At the Trinity Hotel in Carlsbad, Miss Ruby occasionally pranks unwitting guests and still cares for the rooms where she once worked. The gentle ghost of Julie Staab sits weeping at the bar of La Posada when not running bath water in her former room. And in death, Byron T. Mills looks over the Las Vegas Plaza Hotel he owned and neglected in life. Local author Donna Blake Birchell shares the chilling stories of these permanent spectral guests.

Book Description
Before Alan Brown wrote Haunted Places in the American South, only the locals knew what was lurking in these locations. Slamming doors, eerie lights, and Confederate soldiers' ghosts kept some folks too scared to talk with outsiders. Above Peavey Melody Music in Meridian, Mississippi, children may be heard giggling and running down an abandoned hallway that turns icy cold. At the Jameson Inn in Crestview, Florida, an apparition appears on surveillance tapes after filling the lobby with sweet-smelling cigar smoke. Seldom told and rarely—if ever—printed stories such as these join tales from haunted inns, mansions, forests, ravines, and prisons to create Haunted Places in the American South. The book collects ghost stories from fifty-five historically haunted sites in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Alan Brown gathered these stories from newspapers, magazines, museum directors, archaeologists, hotel managers, and many others who shared their disturbing experiences. Most of these stories have never appeared in book form, and some, such as the haunting of Peavey Melody Music, have never been published at all. Haunted Places in the American South differs from most other collections of southern ghost stories, for the featured sites include more than just haunted houses. Bridges, forts, governors' mansions, prisons, hotels, woods, theaters, cemeteries, and even a large rock are included as focal points for these tales. The book provides directions to the sites, notes, and a bibliography that will be useful to folklore scholars and to travelers seeking that cold and creepy brush with the supernatural.
