The Presence of the Paranormal

Rev. Hunter invited readers of Haunted Michigan to open their minds to the presence of the paranormal all around them. They opened their minds . . . and unlocked a grand repository of their own personal supernatural experiences. Hunter investigated these modern, active hauntings and recounts the most chilling and most unusual here for you, in further confirmation that the Great Lakes State may be one of the most haunted places in the country.

More Haunted Michigan brings you antique ghosts from Jackson, theatrical ghosts from Dowagiac, a growling ghost from Mackinac Island, and even a feline ghost from Otsego.

There are ghosts who hang out in mirrors, a territorial creature that curses a Christmas tree farm, an angelic janitor, a talking cemetery, and a family terrorized for decades because their house sits on a portal to the spirit world. Join Hunter as he tours the state, documenting the unexplainable and exploring the presence of the paranormal in our lives.

4.0 out of 5 stars More Haunted Michigan...and New York...and West Virginia..., March 11, 2003

This review is from: More Haunted Michigan: New Encounters with Ghosts of the Great Lakes State (Ohio) (Paperback)

I am a big fan of ghost stories, especially supposedly true ghost stories from Michigan. I absolutely adored Gerald Hunter's first book, and I waited anxiously for the sequel. I had heard rumors that the second one would concentrate on Detroit and the surrounding suburbs. This pleased me as I live in Metro-Detroit, and very rarely find ghost stories about my area in print. When I finally picked it up, I was somewhat disappointed to find that only a handful of the stories were from southeastern Michigan. Also, stories from other U.S. states were included at the end. There have to be more haunted locations beyond the U.P., and other norhern Michigan parts! For me personally, reading a story about a haunt hundreds of miles away is as relevant as if it were in another state. Other than this complaint, the book, like the first one, is a great read. Mr. Hunter has a very laid-back, yet detailed style of writing. Whether you're from Michigan or not, you should pick it up. The story from Dearborn Hgts. alone makes it worth the price for admission.

Original accounts, personally investigated by the author - and something new that I've never seen in a ghost book before, the accounts are rated by the author (who has a pleasant "voice") on level of scariness. You'll agree with him!

I highly recommend this book and I've read a LOT of ghost books. I plan to get his other book and any other ghost books he writes.

This was a part of a package of "ghost" books that I purchased for my eleven year old grandson. A great choice if a person has an interest in this subject matter.
