A Guide to Haunted New England

<div>Officially listed as haunted by the Rhode Island Census, this dilapidated Foster factory gives up its secrets to New England&rsquo;s resident ghost experts. On May 19, 1822, Peleg Walker was found dead inside Foster&rsquo;s Ramtail Factory. Almost ten years earlier, he and four other family members had made the fateful decision to start a business. Legend has it that when relations soured over arguments about money, the partnership ended, with Peleg hanging from the very bell rope he rang each morning to signal the change in shift. Whether he took his own life or was murdered remains a mystery. Recognized as a haunted site since 1885, the factory now lies in ruins. Yet Peleg still keeps vigil over its remains, sounding his night watchman&rsquo;s bell and drifting with his candle lantern in hand. Authors Tom D&rsquo;Agostino and Arlene Nicholson share over two decades of research into the mysterious history of Rhode Island&rsquo;s haunted factory. Includes photos! &ldquo;Over the past twenty-five years, D&rsquo;Agostino has explored scores of sites and produced several books on his adventures, including Haunted Rhode Island. When snooping for spooks, he and his wife, Arlene, carry a briefcase of high-tech gadgetry to document his findings.&rdquo; &mdash;Rhode Island Monthly </div>

Rhode Island's Haunted Ramtail Factory

<div>The collaborators of A Guide to Haunted New England track the spirits of the &ldquo;Constitution State&rdquo; through its storied history. The emerald sheen illuminating the Sabbatarian burying ground, 8 Mile River&rsquo;s misty figures which emerge at the Devil&rsquo;s Hopyard, and flying demon skeletons on Charles Island&mdash;these bizarre haunts are uniquely Connecticut. In the ghostly lore of the state, the ambient ramblings of the Leatherman still ring out in the caves of Harwinton&rsquo;s forests and the former residents of the Hale Homestead continue to roam the attic at night. Join authors and Paranormal United Research Founders, Thomas D&rsquo;Agostino and his wife Arlene Nicholson, as they recount bone chilling mysteries from Putnam, Canton, New London and many more shadowy corners of the Nutmeg state.

Connecticut Ghost Stories and Legends

<div>The author of A Guide to Haunted New England lifts the coffin lid on the region&rsquo;s folklore and legends of the undead. New England is rich in history and mystery. Numerous sleepy little towns and farming communities distinguish the region&rsquo;s scenic tranquility. But not long ago, New Englanders lived in fear of spectral ghouls believed to rise from their graves and visit family members in the night to suck their lives away. Although the word &ldquo;vampire&rdquo; was never spoken, scores of families disinterred loved ones during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries searching for telltale signs that one of them might be what is now referred to as the New England vampire. &ldquo;In his remarkable book . . . Thomas D&rsquo;Agostino details the longstanding belief among New Englanders that supernatural entities were responsible for the disease called consumption.&rdquo;&mdash;Crime Capsule Includes photos!
