Book excerpt: This book is more than a collection of average ghost stories. The paranormal phenomenon described in these short ghost tales allegedly occurred at the Tubac Golf Resort & Spa in Tubac, Arizona at or near the historical Hacienda de Otero, affectionately known to the locals as "The Otero." A family historian researching the Otero Family Spanish Land Grant of 1789 discovered these stories by accident. The Tubac Golf Resort & Spa is situated on the site of the historical Otero Land Grant, the location of Arizona's first recorded title to land. Staff and visitors of all ages, genders, and cultural and socio-economic groups have reported strange scents, disembodied voices, and even full-bodied, ghostly apparitions. The book contains seventeen illustrations. Photos were taken at the Tubac Golf Resort & Spa of areas where some of the unexplained events allegedly occurred, including photo enhanced video screen captures of actual resort staff interviews. Photos were taken by the author. A brief relevant history of the Otero Land Grant property is included. Each chapter also contains a brief historical synopsis to give context to the chapter. The last chapter of the book is an account by a resort staff person who has the "Don," the ability to see and interact with spirits. Aficionados of true ghost stories, Arizona, and the Southwest are certain to enjoy this book.

Book excerpt: “A haunting story about the long reach of the past.”—Maureen Corrigan, NPR’S Fresh Air “In this intriguing book, [Nordhaus] shares her journey to discover who her immigrant ancestor really was—and what strange alchemy made the idea of her linger long after she was gone.” —People La Posada—“place of rest”—was once a grand Santa Fe mansion. It belonged to Abraham and Julia Staab, who emigrated from Germany in the mid-nineteenth century. After they died, the house became a hotel. And in the 1970s, the hotel acquired a resident ghost—a sad, dark-eyed woman in a long gown. Strange things began to happen there: vases moved, glasses flew, blankets were ripped from beds. Julia Staab died in 1896—but her ghost, they say, lives on. In American Ghost, Julia’s great-great-granddaughter, Hannah Nordhaus, traces her ancestor’s transfiguration from nineteenth-century Jewish bride to modern phantom. Family diaries, photographs, and newspaper clippings take her on a riveting journey through three hundred years of German history and the American immigrant experience. With the help of historians, genealogists, family members, and ghost hunters, she weaves a masterful, moving story of fin-de-siècle Europe and pioneer life, villains and visionaries, medicine and spiritualism, imagination and truth, exploring how lives become legends, and what those legends tell us about who we are.
