Book Description

Ghost Encounters series Soldier of Love A reluctant spiritual medium, an insatiable Civil War ghost, and a sexy TV ghost hunter create an otherworldly love triangle. When Toni Bianchi decides to chuck her high-stress career and mooching noncommittal boyfriend to become an innkeeper in a tiny tourist town, she doesn't realise that she's trading in one set of problems for another. The inn is a crumbling money pit haunted by the handsome ghost of its former owner—Civil War soldier John Buckman. As the hauntings get more frequent — and much more personal — Toni wonders if she's just imagining things. At her wit's end, Toni calls in the popular ghost-hunting TV show "Paranormal Research Team" and immediately falls for its sexy star, Thomas Becker. Toni, Thomas and Buckman's ghost engage in an otherworldly ménage that helps the dead cross over and leaves the living wanting more. A Triple Scoop of I Scream A reluctant spiritual medium, a sexy TV ghost hunter and a handsome telepath create a love triangle so hot even the dead can't ignore it. Newly-single and without a job or a place to call home, spiritual medium Toni Bianchi finds herself the owner of a rundown ice cream parlour in an historic Wisconsin river town. The shop is haunted by the ghosts of two lovers who can't rest until their tragic mystery is unravelled. While Toni looks for answers and works to get the shop up and running, she finds herself drawn to her handsome neighbour, book store owner Liam Greco. Toni soon learns that Liam has a psychic secret of his own. When the hauntings get physical, Toni enlists the help of the ghost hunters from TV's 'Paranormal Research Team' and reunites with the show's sexy star Thomas Becker. Passion and physic energy surge when Toni, Thomas and Liam engage in a decadently delicious ménage that helps the dead cross over and leaves the living craving more. Stage Fright A reluctant spiritual medium, a sexy television ghost hunter and a resentful movie-house ghost create a dangerous love triangle. Psychic medium Toni Bianchi's love triad with sexy TV ghost hunter Thomas Becker and hot telepath Liam Greco is on the rocks. The men's jealousies flare and Toni is caught in the middle. Faced with some tough decisions, she longs for escape. When her mysterious friend Mike Briggs asks her to help renovate the haunted movie theatre he's just purchased, she jumps at the chance to get out of town and get some distance from her lovers. An angry spirit haunts the old movie house seeking pardon for a crime he didn't commit. When Toni makes intimate contact with the theatre's resident ghost—1950s troublemaker, Kip Monroe—she falls under the spell of his unique sexual magic. He convinces her that he was wrongly accused and makes Toni promise to help clear his name. In the process, she uncovers long-buried secrets about the living and the dead. She learns that all of the men in her life—ghosts, humans and everything in between—are just full of surprises.

(Victoria) Schwab, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, takes readers on three sweeping, evocative adventures in three different haunted cities.

When her parents are tapped to host a show about the world's most haunted places, the family heads off to film around the world.

Book Description

The stories that rationalizing and excuses can't solve... Have you ever had the feeling of being watched in an empty room? Or jumped at a fleeting shadow you saw in the corner of your eye? Did you tell yourself it was only your imagination? We all know a ghost story or two. You may have heard them at campfires or sleepovers, or maybe you can recall the experience of someone you know. Some of these are easy to explain away, fading from your memory over time. But there are always a few which linger, unexplainable and waiting to be remembered the next time you find yourself home alone. These stories are different because there's evidence that is difficult to ignore. These are not "I heard from a friend of a friend..." stories, but events and individuals whose existence can be proven. We look to professionals to challenge such claims--but what happens when doctors and lawyers acknowledge and defend possessions and hauntings? The dividing line between science and the paranormal suddenly seems less certain... When hauntings are used as legal evidence, and possessions are reported by renowned physicians, the only logical choice is to be open to the possibilities. We can no longer deny that terrifying things do happen, whether we're looking for them or not. Step into the chilling histories of events even the most stubborn skeptics cannot explain--tales which sound stranger than fiction, but are frighteningly true. In Ghost Stories, you will find cases that stump skeptics and span the globe. Inside, you will discover: 30+ chilling tales of ghosts and demons that will have you leaving on your lights next time you go to sleep at night The dark histories behind well-known stories like Dracula, Snow White, and more How hauntings have evolved in the digital age The story behind the sprawling Winchester house and its staircases leading to nowhere The asylum where thousands of patients were tortured, leaving nothing but an echo of its past Why you should never try to explore the Paris catacombs unless you're wanting an unpleasant surprise The history of the real-life doll that inspired Chucky How a Ouija board affected an entire town And much more. If you find yourself scoffing at the idea of demons and ghosts, hold your judgment until you've read the compelling research presented. We try to define our world in clear, rational terms. But time and time again, experiences teach us that the world is not rational, and that denying the unexplainable won't make it go away. If you're ready to discover what lurks in the shadows and stalks in the night, then scroll up and click the "Add to Cart" button right now. Be sure to leave your nightlight on.

Book Description

The first-ever collection of Victorian Christmas ghost stories, culled from rare 19th-century periodicals During the Victorian era, it became traditional for publishers of newspapers and magazines to print ghost stories during the Christmas season for chilling winter reading by the fireside or candlelight. Now for the first time thirteen of these tales are collected here, including a wide range of stories from a diverse group of authors, some well-known, others anonymous or forgotten. Readers whose only previous experience with Victorian Christmas ghost stories has been Charles Dickens's "A Christmas Carol" will be surprised and delighted at the astonishing variety of ghostly tales in this volume. "In the sickly light I saw it lying on the bed, with its grim head on the pillow. A man? Or a corpse arisen from its unhallowed grave, and awaiting the demon that animated it?" - John Berwick Harwood, "Horror: A True Tale" "Suddenly I aroused with a start and as ghostly a thrill of horror as ever I remember to have felt in my life. Something--what, I knew not--seemed near, something nameless, but unutterably awful." - Ada Buisson, "The Ghost's Summons" "There was no longer any question what she was, or any thought of her being a living being. Upon a face which wore the fixed features of a corpse were imprinted the traces of the vilest and most hideous passions which had animated her while she lived." - Walter Scott, "The Tapestried Chamber"

Book Description

Before the Krewe of Hunters, there was Harrison Investigations. Together for the first time in one value box set, three stories of romantic suspense tinged with ghosts and mystery, only from New York Times bestselling author Heather Graham. The Presence Toni MacNally buys a run-down Scottish castle to turn it into a tourist destination, completed by inventing the perfect story about the ghost of the imaginary laird Bruce MacNiall. Then someone arrives claiming to actually be Laird MacNiall—a tall, dark, formidable Scot. Around the same time, the bodies of young women are being found in the nearby town. Toni’s sinister, lifelike dreams suggest the impostor is connected to the recent deaths. Bruce claims he wants to help catch the murderer. But even if she wants to, can Toni trust him…when her visions seem to suggest the tempting laird might be the murderer? The Séance A chill falls over Christina Hardy’s housewarming party when talk turns to a recent murder that has all the hallmarks of the so-called ÔInterstate Killer’ murders from fifteen years before. To lighten the mood, the guests drag out an old Ouija board for a little spooky fun—and that’s when things become truly terrifying. Cop-turned-writer Jed Braden is skeptical of Christina’s ghostly encounters, but his police sources confirm all the intimate details of the case—her otherworldly source is reliable, and the body count is growing. The spirits are right. The Interstate Killer is still out there, and Christina’s life is hanging in the balance between this world and the next. Nightwalker One night, desperate for money to support her grandfather, Jessy Sparhawk places the bet that will change her life forever. Just as she’s collecting her winnings, a man stumbles through the crowd, a knife protruding from his back, and crashes into her, pinning her to the table. Hired to investigate the murder, private detective Dillon Wolf finds himself fascinated by the gorgeous redhead who’d been trapped beneath the victim—and by the single word the dying man had whispered in her ear. Indigo. One murder leads to another as Dillon and Jessy realize that the nightmare is only just beginning—and that the dead still have a hand left to play.
