    About this ebook

    I have always been fascinated by secrets...

    So begins Annie Wilder's collection of true family ghost stories, gathered from old letters and family genealogy books or told around the dinner table. From her Irish great-grandpa outsmarting the death coach to her German great-great-grandma seeing a falling star each time one of her children died, these personal vignettes illuminate the mysteries of the spirit world.

    Spooky at times but also poignant and humorous, these stories are brought to life with vintage photographs. They include true tales of a haunted hotel, a magical bookstore, and a faceless ghost girl who haunted Annie's mother for decades. You'll explore a wide variety of odd or mystical topics, from spirit guides to astral travel, totem animals, and premonitions. Along with fascinating insights from prominent psychics, this book includes simple protection rituals and a ceremony to honor your own family in spirit.

      I liked the author's previous book much better. This one the first few chapters read like a genealogy of the author's family which is nice on one hand but strange reading about a complete strangers relatives. When she does get into the paranormal and ghost story sections of the book it does get some better. But most are stories about her family and them having abilities or odd experiences. Many of her relatives have precognitive capabilities. Nearly all of her siblings have had some sort of ghost interaction. There's a whole chapter of ghost animals, like the family ghost dog that always rings the doorbell at Christmas. Nice overall but really seems to be the author reminiscing on previous family experiences. Her first hand experiences are better but maybe that's because their first hand and not re-telling of someone else's stories.

      Meh. Just another Llewellyn book on ghosts. It is what it is. I tend to think books like this are best read at Halloween when we are looking for spooky stories, but as spookiness goes, these were pretty mild stories. If you find this for a buck at your local used book store, go for it. But otherwise just read some good ghost fiction, like M.R. James.
