A Ghost Hunter’s Guide to DeLand

Whether you're a thrill-seeker, a history buff, or an armchair traveler, Gently Haunted will unlock the haunted history of DeLand, Florida—where the past is always present, and the veil between this world and the next is whisper-thin.

This is far more than an ordinary book of ghost stories: it's a full-featured guidebook that will take you to some of DeLand's most haunted hotspots. From the echoing corridors of old Victorian mansions to the eerie calm of historic graveyards, you'll visit a wide range of storied sites, many untouched by time.

What's more, you'll see DeLand through the eyes of its eternal inhabitants—the spectral residents who lived here, died, here, and still linger in the shadows. You'll learn about their passions and their tragedies, and you'll understand why so many unsettled spirits still call this town home.

Gently Haunted offers more than just tales the strange and mysterious. It's an invitation to explore, armed with an insider’s map to places where you can feel the chill, hear the whispers, and maybe, if you're lucky, meet a friendly ghost or two.

Prepare to embark on a journey that blurs the lines between the past and the present, the seen and the unseen. But be warned: once you've peered into the shadows of DeLand, the town might never let you go. Are you ready to uncover the secrets that await?
