America's Haunted Asylums: A Ghost Hunter's Guide - Paperback

by Jeff Dwyer (Author)

Ghost hunters and urban adventurers will find Jeff Dwyer's America's Haunted Asylums to be an essential guide to places where opportunities for paranormal encounters are greatest. Spanning the country - from the Pacific Northwest, to southern states, and the upper East Coast - this book presents detailed histories of haunted asylums, patients whose spirits remain incarcerated, and the doctors and staff who perpetrated unimaginable neglect, abuse, and torture. With the skill of a historian and insight of a seasoned paranormal investigator, Jeff Dwyer offers readers the experience of visiting thirty abandoned insane asylums where lobotomy, electro-convulsive shock, and other heinous medical experiments created a vast population of ghosts.
