See an apparition of a long-dead ship's captain as it appears to a passenger on the Port Jefferson Ferry during a lightening storm. Cringe as a hooded humanoid creature with thin arms and long, black, boney fingers is spotted in a tree on a residential street in upscale Farmingdale. Meet a white, waxen ghoul as it walks outside a haunted cemetery in Yaphank, only to disappear into the woods as a massive Halloween night ghost hunt begins. These stories – and more – are written in an in-depth investigative reporter's style, supplying useful information and aids to conduct your own paranormal hunts. Do you think these strange anomalies and mysteries don't exist? Think again!

Spooks and spirits, ghosts and goblins, witches and the weird..."it's Halloween"...one of the most widely celebrated holidays of the year. But why do we trick-or-treat, carve pumpkins and dress up in costumes? What are the legends and lore behind some of our most treasured Halloween traditions? Find out all about this spooky holiday: - The ancient Celts wore masks and costumes on Halloween night to avoid being recognized as human because they thought spirits and ghosts roamed the countryside - The first Halloween movie was made in only 21 days and was shot in the spring, using fake fall leaves - In an attempt to prevent spirits of the dead from leaving their final resting place, gravestones were once placed on top of deeply dug graves - The 1920 packaging for the American-made Ze Jumbo Jelly Beans displayed the message "Stop Halloween Pranksters" - It is believed unlucky by some to carve your jack-o-lantern with a black-handled knife - Wiccaphobia is the fear of witches - In 17th century England, Halloween festivities were moved to Guy Fawkes Day after the Anglican Church banned Halloween as a pagan celebration - Several distilleries around the world produce alcoholic beverages with a grim twist; an English firm produces Vampyre Vodka that is blood red in color - According to the Guinness Book of Records, the largest gathering of "zombies" occurred in Ledbury, Hertfordshire, on August 6, 2009, with 4026 participants.
