Book Description
HAUNTINGS, GHOSTS & DEMONS is a collection of short stories by accomplished paranormal investigator and author Jack Kenna of the TV series Paranormal Survivor and Haunted Case Files. The stories within would seem to be works of pure fiction, but the fact is many of the experiences described in these tales are from actual cases, events, experiences, and even evidence captured by Jack and the S.P.I.R.I.T.S. team during several of their investigations. Still, not all of these stories are based on actual events, but much of the activity described in them is based on documented experiences of real paranormal activity. Shadow figures, objects moving, strange light anomalies, disembodied voices, physical attack by something that cannot been seen, and demonic possession; it all does exist and is real, Jack and his team have witnessed much of it firsthand. Chilling, engrossing, and witty. An extremely enjoyable read for any paranormal or horror enthusiast.

Book Description
New England food and drinks writer Corin Hirsch explores the origins and taste of the favorite potations of early Americans and offers some modern-day recipes to revive them today. Colonial New England was awash in ales, beers, wines, cider and spirits. Everyone from teenage farmworkers to our founding fathers imbibed heartily and often. Tipples at breakfast, lunch, teatime and dinner were the norm, and low-alcohol hard cider was sometimes even a part of children's lives. This burgeoning cocktail culture reflected the New World's abundance of raw materials: apples, sugar and molasses, wild berries and hops. This plentiful drinking sustained a slew of smoky taverns and inns--watering holes that became vital meeting places and the nexuses of unrest as the Revolution brewed.

Book Description
The taverns of colonial New England were gathering places for Revolutionary Patriots, nerve centers for spreading vital news and sanctuaries for outlawed organizations. Perhaps inevitably, certain pubs bore witness to ghastly deeds and sorrowful tragedies. Some of them became tinged with the aura of the supernatural. Through firsthand interviews with dozens of pub owners and employees, author Roxie J. Zwicker has discovered tales of hauntings in which bartenders have their drinks mysteriously upended, waitresses find dining room objects scattered about bizarrely and other staff and patrons catch sudden glimpses of ghostly figures. Read Haunted Pubs of New England to uncover the spine-tingling lore lurking within New England's oldest taverns.
