This well-written collection of 16 short stories by four
talented Kansas authors provides us with eerie tales of
ghosts that range from the kind and benevolent to the
creepy/crawly to the truly frightening and malevolent. Set
in America's Heartland, with apparitions ranging from a
loving cat, a daring barnstormer, a handsome bachelor, a
grieving mother, a beloved school teacher, a childhood
friend to residents of a lost city of old, the tales
encompass time periods from the days of the early settlers
to the present. Troy Taylor, Founder of the American Ghost
Society, has written a compelling introduction for
TRESPASSING TIME, and he's an expert in the field.
I became so immersed in this superb collection of
hauntings, I couldn't put it down until I'd turned the
final page. Then I yearned for more. Whether you believe in
ghostly spirits inhabiting our surroundings or not, these
spellbinding tales will make you think a little more about
things that go bump in the night (and the day). An
excellent reading experience!
Sixteen frightening, heartwarming, amusing and spellbinding
stories from America’s Heartland, spanning pioneer days to
the present.
Excerpt
...is there really anything as eerie as the vast open
fields and dark stands of woods that stretch across
America’s Heartland? What awaits us in this strange and
unfamiliar region and what tragic ghosts still walk in the
lonely places where no one can hear you when you scream?
The prairie of America can be a mysterious place and, to
those who come from the more populated regions, a strangely
unsettling one. Even to those of us who grew up on the
prairie, it’s hard to know what sometimes lurks around the
next corner of the road, or around the next bend in the
path.
