Ghostly North Carolina

Ghostly North Carolina: Hauntings from Mountains to Coast

Readers of this book will venture deep into the dark and mysterious side of the American South and discover the heart-palpitating, eyewitness accounts of ghosts, poltergeists, and voices from beyond the grave which still linger. Included are the horrifying stories that have left their blood-stained imprints on North Carolina’s history, as well as modern, never-before-told hauntings from prominent individuals, businesses, and other locations.

Being the son of two horror television hosts, James M. Parker has combined his academic and professional experience in psychology and history with his morbid fascinations to bring about this collection of true ghost encounters. He lives in Johnston County, North Carolina.

• “These stories have the making for great terror films.”—Sara Karloff, daughter of horror icon Boris Karloff

• “James Parker is a skilled storyteller who creates intriguing narratives enhanced by atmospheric trappings, especially well suited to the ghost story genre. In addition, he brings a historian’s gift for research that gives his stories a verisimilitude which makes them even more hauntingly believable—and unsettling.”—Robert Pohle, official biographer to Sir Christopher Lee.
