William J. HallReseñas

I don't know if the house on Lindley Street truly was the most haunted house in the world at the time, but it certainly had a number of unhappy and frazzled people, who may or may not have caused poltergeist activity.

What I like is the author does not say one way or another what occurred, but leaves it to the reader/listener to decide whether there is merit in the idea.

The one person I feel really bad for is the little girl who may have been the center of the whole thing, Marcia (Mar-ceea according to the author) Goodin. By all accounts and listening to one of the transcribed discussions that occurred, she did not have a happy, free roaming childhood most kids of the 70s experienced thanks to her mother's over-protectiveness.

(When the time came, Marcia changed her name and evidently never spoke to her adoptive parents again. Late Shelby Woman's Supernatural Story Revealed in a Book.)

More a collection of diary entries by the person who's lived in that house since she was a child, this book documents the various and assorted happenings that have been going on for who knows how long. Some of the stuff going on sounds like it's straight out of stories you might hear about in places like Ireland and Scotland - with the little folk coming to visit - and others are more classic haunting type goings on. The book's author, Mr. Hall, also adds in a bit of analyses at the end and notes that there have been "paranormal flaps" in the area of Litchfield, Connecticut for years, including Bigfoot and UFO sightings, all of which seems to happen all at once, as if a nexus point has opened up with a wealth of energy...

Whether you believe or not, this is an interesting book.

I received this book in a Goodreads giveaway.

An enjoyable read, by an enthusiastic writer. Recommended for any lover of the supernatural.
