The Ghosts of St. Albans Sanatorium by Pat Bussard O'Keefe Pdf

*BLACK AND WHITE EDITION* Hidden behind the cover of "The Ghosts of St. Albans Sanatorium" are true tales of ghostly and ghastly encounters with the Denizens of the dusty hallways of the old asylum. The sanatorium was a repository for the delirious, the delusional, and the demented. Before that it was a boys school during a time when hazing was an accepted part of academic life. During these incarnations St. Albans held its long suffering boarders captive within her cold embrace. Held in a grip so tight, that it may have transcended the siren call of death. Full page photographs by the author freeze the asylum in time. In a time when seasoned paranormal investigators came to St. Albans Sanatorium hoping to engage with its resident spirits. Some investigators made a connection with the spectral presences that roam freely there. These are their stories.

50 Real Ghost Stories by M J Wayland Pdf

A real ghost story should never end perfectly. That is my rule of thumb. After investigating ghost experiences for nearly thirty years, I realised that the finely polished stories told by storytellers and "ghost walkers" were exactly that - polished. In polishing stories we lose the personality of the haunted and indeed the haunter itself, that is why in my books, research papers and articles, I always maintain the original testaments and facts. The stories that I have collected for you now are rough diamonds, totally unpolished and any additions by myself are kept to a minimum and noted clearly." P. [4] of cover.

My Haunted Attachment by Christopher Saint Booth,Kristina Rake M a Pdf

Did you ever wonder why someone left a beautiful antique in the alley, threw away or even buried a valuable possession? A tragic event can remain and attach itself to material things such as clothing, dolls, furniture, paintings, jewelry and even houses. It then can transfer its dark energy on to you, altering your personality making you feel out of control and even destroy your life. Compiled here are the true case files documenting, real evidence of haunted attachments and how it effects its owners or should I say its victims. If you play with paranormal fire you're going to get 'burnt'. This book and documentary is very personal to me as I went through the most difficult time in my life filming our latest documentary The Attached. This was the first time I picked up an attachment during an investigation at St. Albans Sanatorium. I was attacked in Isolation Cell 7. St. Albans has over 14 Isolation Cells that you can visit if you dare.Something at St. Albans attached to my back and I remember spinning around like a chicken with its head cut off. It was heavy, like human baggage taking a stronghold on my frame. I remember screaming "Get off me, Get off me." After eventually it subsiding. I felt lighter as it calmed down enough to be able to leave. Within six months after I almost died. Leaving out the gory-building details, getting straight to the point, I was checked into the hospital with some form of thing residing inside the middle of me. It was ruled out as a tumor yet they found a large unknown entity living inside of me. It was successfully removed but that entity remains at Harvards Medical University in a specimen jar as it had stem cells and teeth. Was this some form of an attachment or just a coincidence, you decide as you read on....BTW: Isolation Cell 7 is where patient Rebecca was kept..

The World's Most Haunted Hospitals by Richard Estep Pdf

A paramedic and paranormal investigator takes readers on a terrifying tour of haunted hospitals, asylums, and medical facilities across the globe. Hospitals are the nexus point between life and death, the place into which people enter this world, but also exit it. When we consider what has taken place behind the closed doors of hospitals since the inception of the medical profession, it should come as no surprise to discover that so many of them are haunted. In The World's Most Haunted Hospitals, paramedic and paranormal investigator Richard Estep recounts some of the most fascinating—and chilling—stories of hospital hauntings from across the globe, including: The apparitions at an old Utah hospital, now a nursing home, whose appearances are said to predict a patient's death. The Italian island referred to by locals as "the gateway to Hell," where the spirits of thousands of plague victims prowl the streets. The terrifying phenomena that keep visitors away from an abandoned airbase hospital in the Philippines. The ghostly nurse who has haunted the corridors of a London hospital for generations.

A Season with the Witch: The Magic and Mayhem of Halloween in Salem, Massachusetts by J. W. Ocker Pdf

Edgar Award-winning travel writer spends an autumn living in one of America's spookiest tourist destinations: Salem, Massachusetts Salem, Massachusetts, may be the strangest city on the planet. A single event in its 400 years of history—the Salem Witch Trials of 1692—transformed it into the Capital of Creepy in America. But Salem is a seasonal town—and its season happens to be Halloween. Every October, this small city of 40,000 swells to close to half a million as witches, goblins, ghouls, and ghosts (and their admirers) descend on Essex Street. For the fall of 2015, occult enthusiast and Edgar Award–winning writer J.W. Ocker moved his family of four to downtown Salem to experience firsthand a season with the witch, visiting all of its historical sites and macabre attractions. In between, he interviews its leaders and citizens, its entrepreneurs and visitors, its street performers and Wiccans, its psychics and critics, creating a picture of this unique place and the people who revel in, or merely weather, its witchiness.
