The Chippewa Valley is nestled snugly in a vast tract of Wisconsin farmland that offered early settlers a secure place to settle into the American dream. But the valley also harbors a strange and sometimes confusing past. From the boisterous activity of the lumber boom to the lingering stillness of the Eau Claire Asylum, this northwestern corner of the Badger State is filled with tragic stories and tall tales. Cast off with the ghost ferries of Caryville or stand vigil in the small, secluded cemetery where the spirits of children come out to play, in this journey into the eerie history of the Chippewa Valley.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buried deep in the Wisconsin Northwoods, the ruined splendor of the Summerwind Mansion bares the bones of its legendary past. Robert Patterson Lamont purchased the property in 1916 as a country retreat where he could entertain such guests as President Warren G. Harding. Unfortunately, the house played host to visitors of an entirely different sort, and Lamont reportedly fled the property after discharging a pistol at a ghoul in the basement pantry. Raymond Bober abandoned his attempt to convert the house into a hotel in the 1970s, describing rooms that changed size and the mysterious presence of an eighteenth-century explorer in his famous book, The Carver Effect. Join Devon Bell for a glimpse through the shattered windows of the most specter-laden spot in the Badger State.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black River Falls, Green Bay, Gresham, Iola, New London, Plover, Manitowish Waters...and Madison, where Craig Nehring of the Fox Valley Ghost Hunters experienced a very real debate over the question: Fate or Destiny These are a few of the interesting places that we explore in this, our second Wisconsin's Most Haunted book. Haunted places that you may never heard of, but yet rival those better known locations that we related in our first book such as Summerwind Mansion near Land O'Lakes, First Ward School in Wisconsin Rapids, Von Stiehl's Winery in Algoma and The Grand Opera House in Oshkosh. Most of the spirits are gentle and benevolent souls, but an occasional encounter with a malevolent spirit can be expected as well...like the growling shadow man with deformed legs who frightened the family in their bedrooms at night, claiming "It's my house." What about our canine and feline friends? Can they return to their homes, revealing themselves to their former owners? Evidence is presented that this may, indeed, be possible. So, what do you think? Are you a skeptic or a supporter of reported paranormal activities? No matter; you will still find the stories contained herein to be fascinating accounts--perhaps encounters from a existence beyond our knowledge and experience.
