Overview

Journalist Minerva Merryman sets off on a spirited adventure delving into the past and unwittingly discovers hauntings, witchcraft, vampires, Halloween hijinks, and murderous mayhem, in Ohio and beyond. The journey ends with a twist when the truth behind the hidden magic of the Midwest is finally revealed. Two hundred years of true tales and heart-stopping headlines, newly unearthed accounts lost to the ages until now, thrust an inescapable secret into the light of today--It was all real. Witchcraft trials as late as 1969, ghosts running rampant in the streets, gruesome murders in peaceful little towns, satanic cults in suburban settings--the forgotten mysteries and unsolved unspeakables of the past are on the prowl again. For the first time in print, the original, unaltered stories from over the centuries are brought back to life for a vivid picture of what really goes bump in the night in a place that has become affectionately known as... Haunted Sylvania. Along with the Ohio hauntings and witchcraft of today Haunted Sylvania reveals over one hundred newly discovered stories, authenticated and originally published in the local newspapers of Ohio, plus a good-sized dose of autumn adventures: Halloween hijinks, mysterious mischief, and haunted happenings, from The Spirited Side of Sylvania.
