From the halls of the Capitol Building to the Lincoln bedroom of the White House to the Presidential box at Ford's Theater, Washington is teeming with the ghostly specters of politicians and their cohorts from days gone by. The eerie apparitions of former presidents, their wives, mistresses, adherents and adversaries roam the halls of Washington's most famous institutions, haunting the buildings that have been the site of countless important events in United States history. In our nation's capital, the ghosts number as high as the politicians, and are often as mischievous and boisterous as their living counterparts. From Theodore Roosevelt to Richard Nixon, the presidential residents of the White House have had to contend with not only their living opponents but also the scores of spirits who still seek to press their agendas in the world of the living--a world they left long ago. Through author Pamela Apkarian-Russell's tales, we learn of chilling encounters with the ghosts of Abigail Adams, Andrew Jackson, Anna Surratt, Abraham Lincoln and more. Featuring stories of the spooky experiences of both believers in the paranormal and skeptics, Washington's Haunted Past contains a bevy of spectral lore sure to send a chill down the spines of D.C. residents and visitors alike

Ireland is famous for its "thin places," a membrane or a thin layer between worlds that cross over each other. From pagan times to present, Ireland's dark history has been recorded in its abbeys and churches, forts and castles, jails, and graveyards by those who lived during those turbulent times and often perished because of them. Their ghosts are eyewitnesses to this history. Sometimes they are the history. A travelogue like no other, Traveling on the Dark Side, History and Hauntings of the Emerald Isle, tells the stories of Ireland's tumultuous past as recorded through the lens of its ghosts and legends.

Between the covers of this book you will find stories about the cities within Anoka County tracing the people who once lived in them and the things that happened in them that have become buried beneath the layers of more recent events. The author started "digging up the past" in Anoka County when she was asked to be one of four contributing history writers for the Anoka Union Herald. Under the auspices of the Anoka County Historical Society, she published 79 columns between June of 2009 and June of 2016 when her last column appeared in that popular section of the paper. They are now gathered together in this book in a loose chronological order according to the present Cities of Anoka County in which the events happened and the people lived.

In this book Tiya Miles explores the popular yet troubling phenomenon of "ghost tours," frequently promoted and experienced at plantations, urban manor homes, and cemeteries throughout the South. As a staple of the tours, guides entertain paying customers by routinely relying on stories of enslaved black specters. But who are these ghosts? Examining popular sites and stories from these tours, Miles shows that haunted tales routinely appropriate and skew African American history to produce representations of slavery for commercial gain. "Dark tourism" often highlights the most sensationalist and macabre aspects of slavery, from salacious sexual ties between white masters and black women slaves to the physical abuse and torture of black bodies to the supposedly exotic nature of African spiritual practices. Because the realities of slavery are largely absent from these tours, Miles reveals how they continue to feed problematic "Old South" narratives and erase the hard truths of the Civil War era. In an incisive and engaging work, Miles uses these troubling cases to shine light on how we feel about the Civil War and race, and how the ghosts of the past are still with us.
