Readers, today the link is to one of my own essays, on the blog page of my friend the talented artist James Stanford. I discuss ghosts as reflected in art and the cultural/social conceptual framework of ghostly phenomena. I hope you’ll give it a look, and that you’ll explore this wonderful art-filled website! http://jamesstanfordart.com/blog-post/ghostly-arts-apparitions-reflected-culture-art/

Readers! My 15 page scholarly essay about the spirits and other elements in F. G. Cottam’s wonderfully chilling ghost stories is now available at my amazon link. It is a helpful read for anyone who loves ghost stories, as it offers a literary analysis of the ghostly events in these superb books, and will help you see other ghost stories from a broader perspective.
F. G. Cottam is in my opinion the finest contemporary author in the ghost/horror genre – my work will reveal why! Cottam has written several subsequent books, all marvelous. If you aren’t familiar with his work, you’re in for a treat. As many times as I’ve read and re-read his books, I only crack them open during daylight hours – preferably when not home alone! His work is original, brilliantly well-written, and do not disappoint!

Readers, here’s another collection of ghosts from a haunted road. We’ve read about other highway apparitions – what is it about roadways that invites ghosts? Some would cite the ley line theory (briefly, lines of underground energy); others would add that many people die in auto accidents and that many roads are adjacent to cemeteries. Whatever the reason, I bring you this gaggle of ghosts, via New England Folklore blog. Enjoy!
I always imagine that Labor Day weekend will be warm and sunny. You know, it’s the end of summer so we should spend one last day at the beach or have a big picnic. 755 more words

Readers, here’s a comprehensive post about the history and hauntings at Annesley Hall – from the excellent Paranormal Hauntings blog.
History Annesley Hall is a location that over the years I have been extremely interested in and drawn too. Annesley Hall and Newstead Abbey are the two locations that growing up as a teenager myself and friends would often visit on a night to share the odd ghost stories or two. The two locations are […]
