Are ghosts, witches, and scary creatures real? Around the fireside, Shelby Sherman Sanford's family is talking about their Halloween fears. Mother, father, and older sister confess their frights, but Shelby says he is not afraid of anything – he wants to go out for a walk! Later that night, when the clock strikes twelve, it seems Shelby gets his chance to prove himself, as he finds himself outside in the neighbor's corn field. A young witch welcomes him with an enchanted apple and one bite gives him the "second sight" of ghosts and monsters. A ride on the witch's broom carries Shelby over the graveyard, past the church, and crashing into a tree to begin his adventure. But is it real or a dream?

Join storyteller Thomas Freese as he travels across the United States collecting true tales from folks experiencing the world of the strange up close and personal. Gathered through personal interviews, amazing stories of angels, ghosts, and aliens reveal that so-called normal life is but a thin veneer of mundane activity. Outside bedroom doors or in quaint backyards, creatures from other dimensions call, enticing us to wander away to the woods or communicate across the stretches of space and time. These tales are not culled from old, dusty archives – oh no! Here you will find 108 incredibly creepy stories involving some very strange beings and places: shape shifting creatures, Sasquatch, haunted castles, a return from the dead, fairies, a samurai ghost, photographs of spirits, a chat with a dead dad, revenge from the grave, an African American angel, alien implants, abductions, and more!

Shaker Ghost Stories is a collection of true experiences from the visitors to and employees at Shakertown, Pleasant Hill, Kentucky. Pleasant Hill has been 200 years in existence, and is one of the restored Shaker villages in the Eastern United States. The Shakers, or United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing, worked diligently to create a Zion, or heaven on earth. Their founder, Mother Ann, encouraged them to put their "hands to work and hearts to God". While the Pleasant Hill Shakers have passed on, their legacy of spiritual devotion and material prosperity remains. The Shaker village is a peaceful place to visit and learn about Shaker life, to enjoy singing and overnight stays. Those who come find a spiritual touchstone in walking the land, hearing Shaker music, and marveling at their craftsmanship. Some of those who work or visit there have discovered that some Shaker spirits have perhaps returned to Pleasant Hill. The collection of odd occurrences reported in Shaker Ghost Stories include mysterious singing, phantom footsteps, appearances and disappearances of Shaker-looking people, invisible helping hands, and the sights and sounds of work and worship continuing at odd hours. The Shaker spirits seem to act much in character with their original dispositions-demonstrating faith, fervor, and a guardianship of their homes and land. Traveling East in 1990, Thomas Freese visited friends, looking to relocate from New Mexico. Thomas was intrigued by Shakertown and the lives and accomplishments of the Shakers. He moved to Lexington the following year, and in 1996 became one of the Pleasant Hill Singers. While learning and performing Shaker music, he heard his new friends often speak of their "Shaker experiences", occasional and unusual happenings. Boosted by their encouragement, he spent the summer of 1998 taking notes and collecting accounts of the Shaker Ghost Stories.
