Description

Your spine tingles and the hair rises on your neck. You look around and at first you see -- nothing? But then you notice ... !!!! Step into the world where the line between the living and the dead is paper-thin in this bone-chilling collection of ghost stories!


From cursed houses where restless spirits whisper in the dark to shadowy apparitions lurking in the corners of forgotten places, Ghostly Encounters: Terrifyingly True Hauntings delves into eerie and unexplained tales that still baffle, intrigue, and terrify us to this day. Encounter malevolent poltergeists who wreak havoc on unsuspecting families, ghostly figures bound by tragic pasts, and haunted locations steeped in mystery and fear. Explore legends of cursed objects, spectral warnings, and the unrelenting presence of those who refuse to leave the mortal world behind.


Master storyteller and seasoned paranormal investigator Richard Estep presents more than 200 years of hauntings in this fright-filled read that spans the nerve-wracking realms of the spirit world. You will ...

  • Visit the lonely farmhouse where an animal spirit haunted an innocent family
  • Walk the battlefield of Gettysburg where echoes of the Civil War battle still resonate today
  • Go behind the walls of Waverly Hills Sanatorium, the tuberculosis facility in Kentucky where thousands lost their lives to an insidious disease -- some of whom still walk its empty hallways
  • Journey to Tombstone, Arizona, home of the famous 1881 O.K. Corral gunfight, where ghosts apparently still roam the entire town
  • Tour the Borley Rectory, which was said to be the most haunted house in England
  • Investigate "The Enfield Poltergeist" and "The Black Monk of Pontefract" (featured in the movies The Conjuring 2 and When the Lights Went Out, respectively)
  • Meet the Bell Witch, the malicious poltergeist that tormented a family in 19th-century Tennessee
  • Venture behind the walls of haunted prisons, hotels, inns, hospitals, mansions, and more
  • And meet a whole host of other supernatural manifestations, haunting this bone-chilling collection of true ghost stories!
