Haunted Massachusetts

Cemetery spooks, haunted historic homes and Native American legends figure prominently in this collection of eerie in tales from the Bay State. From the beaches and cliffs of the Atlantic coast and the historic streets of Boston to the beautiful Berkshires come a variety of stories and legends, including the phantom canoe of two dead Mohegan lovers, the haunted Danvers Lunatic Asylum whose former residents never really left, and eyewitness accounts of UFOs sightings that date back to the mid-1800s.

Cheri Revai Farnsworth is the author of the best-selling Haunted Northern New York series, The Big Book of New York Ghost Stories, Haunted Connecticut, Alphabet Killer, and eight other titles of true crime and the paranormal. She is a native of upstate New York's "north country" but has many fond memories of family vacations in the adjacent New England states. Her nostalgic recollections, along with a lifelong interest in regional history and the paranormal, prompted her to accept the challenge of writing about the strange phenomena of a state she believes may be the most haunted of all-Massachusetts. Farnsworth is retired and lives in Massena, New York, with her family.
