Revealing a side of the famed city that tourists rarely experience,
this handbook uncovers a hidden realm of ghosts, apparitions, and
paranormal phenomena in San Francisco. The guide delves into the
haunted hotspots that unsuspectedly lie in the city's most famous
landmarks and neighborhoods, including Alcatraz, Chinatown, and the
Presidio, while directions to each hair-raising location are
provided, encouraging adventurous sightseers to seek out their own
ghostly encounters. With the history of each frightening locale,
the probable life stories of their resident spirits, and actual
transcripts of their conversations with a psychic, this
supernatural study delivers a realistic feel for encountering the
uncanny.
Wales is said to be the most haunted country in the world, and its
capital city is no exception. Cardiff has been at the heart of many
of the country’s defining historical events, from bloody clashes
with invading armies to ecstatic moments of sporting jubilation,
and the ghosts connected to these occasions do not rest easy.
Paranormal Cardiff takes the reader on a spine-chilling journey to
dozens of supposedly haunted locations, which range from well-known
tourist destinations to more secluded spots off the beaten track,
each with its own eerie tale to tell. These include: the haunted
theatre where stars of the past continue to tread the boards, a
vengeful eagle that protects a fairy-tale castle from thieves, the
fashionable manor house plagued by a daily supernatural visitor,
the ‘cursed’ changing room in the national sports stadium, and
the spooky streets of Llandaff, which inspired the twisted
imagination of a young Roald Dahl. Paranormal Cardiff takes the
reader into the world of ghosts and spirits in the city and the
surrounding area, following their footsteps into the unknown. These
tales of haunted places, supernatural happenings and weird
phenomena will delight the ghost hunters, and fascinate and
intrigue everybody who knows Cardiff.
THEY KNOW YOUR NAME! Voices are calling us-voices without an
attached form. Encounters with these disembodied voices warn us,
haunt us, confuse us, inspire us . . . and scare us. For good
reason . . . Explore spine-chilling, true stories from
investigations and real occurrences throughout history that expose
disembodied voices. Objectively and thoroughly presented, the
evidence and theories shine light on possible reasons and agendas
for these voices and where they might originate. Gain insight into
what they are and what we may be able to learn from them. Sometimes
they inspire great acts; other times they lead us astray. Are they
forgotten woodland deities? Is it an ancient evil from the days of
Eden? Is there a single intelligence behind them all . . . or
perhaps we shouldn't look too deeply . . . or else . . . Famous
reports from history as well as never-before-published reports of
disembodied voices from the everyday lives of common people are
discussed. But what about you? When the voices call, will you
answer? Hair-raising conclusions found here will make you think
twice.
