Product Description

It was an irrational decision. Despite having just moved into a beautiful new house, the Williams family gave in to an odd, overwhelming desire to purchase and move into a Victorian home they had come upon by chance. They were curious, of course, as to why the house had, in the past, had such a high vacancy rate -- no one ever seemed to live in it for a long period of time. But that curiosity didn't last long, because shortly after moving in, strange things began to happen. It became abundantly clear that the home's past owners had all had a reason for leaving: fear. The Williams' new home was haunted. At first, the family tried telling themselves there were logical explanations for the strange things they all were witnessing. But before long they came to accept the fact that they were sharing their home with ghosts. Haunted is the Williams family's story from the point of view of the mother, Dorah. Through her chilling reminiscences, we witness the all-too-real goings-on in the house. And we join the family as they seek a way to bring an end to the paranormal events that were occurring with ever more frequency and intensity, and learn why the events began in the first place.

Best of the Bunch
I received numerous true ghost story books for Christmas 2004, but I couldn't put this one down. Normally not the "reading" type I had started and finished the book in 5 hours. Definitely the best true ghost story book I have read in years.

Not at all what i expected...
I expected a ghost story. I expected to be at least a little bit scared. Neither of these two things happened.
There seems to be a feasible explanation for everything `ghostly` that happens in this book, while some things are just TOO unbelievable - i mean, come on - trees don`t just sprout out of the ground and grow several feet high overnight - do they..? I don`t suppose the neighbour who had been there since `the beginning` could have had anything to do with any of the strange happenings....? No....?
I`m not so sure.
Not recommended as a ghost story.

A BRILLIANT READ
I have just finished this book, and i got to say i couldnt put it down. Every bit of spare time i had this book was in my hand. The true story that is told to you by the mother/wife of the house was fasinating. I got completely hooked. I am not a big reader at all, but because i find haunting/ghosts etc fasinating i brought this book and im glad i did, this book as got me wanting reading more, and cant wait to purcase another spooky book and hope thay are as good as this one.
