Synopsis The Amityville Horror by : Jay Anson

“A fascinating and frightening book” (Los Angeles Times)—the bestselling true story about a house possessed by evil spirits, haunted by psychic phenomena almost too terrible to describe. In December 1975, the Lutz family moved into their new home on suburban Long Island. George and Kathleen Lutz knew that, one year earlier, Ronald DeFeo had murdered his parents, brothers, and sisters in the house, but the property—complete with boathouse and swimming pool—and the price had been too good to pass up. Twenty-eight days later, the entire Lutz family fled in terror. This is the spellbinding, shocking true story that gripped the nation about an American dream that turned into a nightmare beyond imagining—“this book will scare the hell out of you” (Kansas City Star).

Synopsis The Hauntings of Hood Canal by : Jack Cady

In a rustic town in Washington State, a man's death upsets the quiet equilibrium of small-town life. A well-intentioned blacksmith performs a civic duty for the town, ridding it of a pernicious evil that has taken up residence along the canal, but the death of the predator allows a more ancient evil into the waters. The townsfolk find themselves caught a vortex of uncertainty and moral ambiguity as the investigators start to uncover hidden secrets long thought buried . . . From the author the Tulsa World says "has patented a hard-edged folksy narrative that conceals within its intricate voice the imminence of the supernatural" comes a tale of the dark side of the quintessential American small town.

Synopsis Witches and Warlocks of New York by : Lisa LaMonica

Witches and Warlocks of New York is a collection of legends and historical accounts about witches and warlocks from the Empire State. New York has a surprisingly rich and lasting history of witches and witchcraft. Included are a history and origins of witchcraft in New York State and historical tales of “witches” across the state including Hulda, the witch who was the origin behind a Brothers Grimm fairy tale and inspired parts of Washington Irving's Sleepy Hollow, and the Easthampton Witch Elizabeth Garlick, accused and tried thirty-five years before the Salem witch trials. These stories are known locally in the towns where they occurred but have never been collected into one book before.

Synopsis Dead Lee's Family Friendly Guide To Haunted Chicago by : John Petz

My Haunted Chicago book series turns 10 years old this year (Oct 2015) and as part of that celebration I'm releasing this fan requested special edition ahead of the regular release due out later this year. For years you people have asked for a family friendly entry into this series, so here it is... almost completely devoid of my whit, charming personality, twisted sense of humor and wicked commentary... in short a Dead Lee book without Dead Lee. To achieve this, this book has been aggressively edited down to a rather anemic 88 locations and 317 pages. Outside of a few stray words here and there, this is as close to family friendly as I can get.
