REVIEWS
"One of the things I really like about Terrance's book is that it is such an easy read. The tidbits of history keep you turning the pages, and you also learn about the paranormal investigators, who have used a variety of paranormal investigation tools...A Ghost Hunter's Guide To The Most Haunted Places in America is one of those books that keeps your imagination wondering what really happened."
-Josh Schubert, USA Travel Magazine

"From a lunatic asylum to a brewery, ghostly presences inhabit all these places. Complete directions and site information is provided. Even if you don't get a chance to visit each of these locations, the stories and the black-and-white photos are fascinating.
