CAN THE DEAD TALK TO THE LIVING? Discover the astonishingly true story of Maggie, Kate, and Leah Fox--the Civil War-era sisters and teen mediums who created the American séance.

A real-life ghost story for young adult readers interested in the supernatural, American history, and women's rights!

Rap. Rap. Rap. The eerie sound was first heard in March of 1848 at the home of the Fox family in Hydesville, New York. The family's two daughters, Kate and Maggie, soon discovered that they could communicate with the spirit that was making these uncanny noises; he told them he had been a traveling peddler who had been murdered. This strange incident, and the ones that followed, generated a media frenzy beyond anything the Fox sisters could have imagined. Kate and Maggie, managed (or perhaps manipulated) by their elder sister Leah, became famous spirit mediums, giving public exhibitions, and advising other celebrities of their day.

But were the Fox sisters legitimate? In the years that followed their rise, the Civil War killed roughly 1 in 4 soldiers, increasing the demand for contacting the dead. However, media campaigns against the sisters gathered steam as well...

This thrilling and mysterious true story from veteran author Barb Rosenstock (Caldecott Honor winner) will spark teens' interest in American history, encourage media literacy, and reveal insights into the Civil War era, fake news, and women's rights.

The latest from acclaimed author Gail Jarrow reveals how magicians--including Harry Houdini and his team of investigators--exposed fake mediums who exploited the vulnerable and gullible in the early twentieth century.

★ School Library Journal, starred review

After millions of people died during World War I and from the 1918 influenza pandemic, the popularity of Spiritualism soared. Desperate to communicate with their dead loved ones, the bereaved fell prey to extortion by fraudulent mediums and fortune-tellers.

But magician Harry Houdini wasn't fooled. He recognized the scammers' methods as no more than conjurer's tricks. Angered by the way people were exploited, Houdini set out to expose the ghost hoaxes. In his stage show, he revealed the fraudsters' techniques, and he used a team of undercover investigators to collect proof of séance deceptions. His head secret agent was a young New York private detective and disguise expert, Rose Mackenberg--a woman who continued her ghost-busting career for decades, long after Houdini's death in 1926.

Ideal for young readers and adults who are drawn to the worlds of psychics and magicians, this riveting book uncovers a little-known chapter in American history and details the ways people were (and still are) deceived by mediums and fortune-tellers.

This is not like any school you've ever attended -- or any book you've ever read

This is the eclectic true story about a man who encountered an extraterrestrial in the year 2013. In his quest to understand the otherworldly experience, he embarked on an incredible journey. He discovered that he possessed visual capabilities that exceeded those of any other human. And he discovered that the extraterrestrial he encountered was Jesus Christ.

The unwitting victim of circumstance, the man found himself at war with all of heaven. After five years of preternatural investigation, he uncovered the reason why and the tragic and terrible mistake he made on the day Jesus came. Resigned to his fate, the man turned his eyes loose on the world of God and cracked Creation from A to Z. All of God's secrets--the truth of the soul, how God attached a soul to a physical world life-form, the purpose of life, how God creates life, the reason for suffering and evil, the answers to every question--became known to this one man.

After years of living in terror of having God press the brand of the second Judas upon his head, the man finally decided to give God's secrets to the created human race--the particulars not revealed in the Bible, the things God never shared with Jesus, the truth behind everything that human beings need to know to understand that the game of creation is for real and it is for keeps. And it is the most dangerous game ever conceived.

My name is Bill Simone, my wife's name is Karen. I have two children, Bill Jr., and Angela. We have three terrific grandchildren; Isabella, Giavanna and Jennah.

Fourteen years ago, while I was still in my 60's, remarkable paranormal events started happening to me. I wrote down each experience in a journal format so I would not forget them. I am now sharing my journal because I want people to know about my experiences and to motivate others to share their paranormal experiences. Reading about my experiences with the paranormal will help you realize you are not alone. Yes, other people also have them. Keep in mind, as strange as your personal paranormal events may be, do not feel ashamed of your unexplained happenings. Believe in yourself and in your first-person experiences and share them with the world.

For as long as I can remember, my mother Ada would have paranormal experiences, and I have my mom on my mind when I write. As you read my journal entries, keep in mind that paranormal experiences come in varying forms and colors. Your paranormal experiences may or may not be like mine or anyone else's.

Ghouls of the Glacial Lakes and Prairie Region

Buried in the annals of the region are torrid tales, disasters and the unexplained. At historic Fort Sisseton, the old hanging tree and a phantom buffalo soldier are just a few of its spectral stories. Partygoers from over a century ago still linger at Aberdeen's Easton Castle. De Smet's historic Laura Ingalls Wilder homestead attracts thousands of visitors annually, many unaware of its familial spirts. Locals in Watertown still debate whether the apparition at the Goss Opera House is that of a traveling performer named Annie or murder victim Maud Alexander, who was set on fire by her own son. Victims of a 1940 train wreck between Milbank and Marvin seemingly never left the scene of the accident. And Captain Luff of The Muskegon disaster can be seen mourning on the banks of Big Stone Lake. Author Deborah Cuyle chronicles the area's most fascinating and perplexing lore.
