Ireland is known as the Emerald Isle, a land of history and mystery, beauty and enchantment. But there's much more to this jewel of the North Atlantic than meets the eye. There is an 18th-century swordsman who defends the hidden treasure of Ballyheigue Castle, a proud house now gutted by fire; Princess Orloff, originally known as Angelica Parrott, who returned home to haunt a jealous sister; Lilith, a young inhabitant of eerie Skryne Castle, who was strangled with foxglove fronds in 1740....

Dixie, with its romantic moods and old-world charm, is particularly prone to harbor phantoms, such as the Gray Man of Pawley's Island, South Carolina, who warns of impending disaster, or headless Joe Baldwin and the famed Maco light of Wilmington. In perhaps the most chilling account, a Tyler, Texas, family suffers years of agony at the hands of a particularly destructive poltergeist. Insects come from nowhere to literally rain on them in their home, and heavy objects are seen to move through space.

The voice of Elvis spoke through the medium of a New Jersey housewife as the late, great superstar's stunned family looked on.

If you think that extrasensory perception (ESP) is a power reserved for crystal-ball gazers, gypsies, believers in the occult, or something to watch on late-night television, this audiobook will come as a big surprise. For ESP is a power latent in each one of us. Every single man, woman, and child has the ability to obtain information beyond the limitations of the time-space continuum. If we're not aware of this force, we're either ignoring it, suppressing it, or ascribing the phenomenon to other causes.

Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches - a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women. Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale.

Cold Hand in Mine stands as one of Aickman's best collections and contains eight stories that show off his powers as a 'strange story' writer to the full. The listener is introduced to a variety of characters, from a man who spends the night in a Hospice to a German aristocrat and a woman who sees an image of her own soul. There is also a nod to the conventional vampire story ("Pages from a Young Girl's Journal") but all the stories remain unconventional and inconclusive, which perhaps makes them all the more startling and intriguing.

Intense, brilliant and moving, The Door is a compelling story about the relationship between two women of opposing backgrounds and personalities: one, an intellectual and writer; the other, her housekeeper, a mysterious, elderly woman who sets her own rules and abjures religion, education, pretense and any kind of authority. Beneath this hardened exterior of Emerence lies a painful story that must be concealed.

As a young boy, Bob had been drawn to the property, and, just when the family decided to move back to Brentwood, it went up for sale. Without a second thought, they purchased the house that Bob had always dreamed of owning. But the family soon began experiencing strange phenomena - objects moving on their own, ghostly footsteps, unsettling moaning sounds - that gradually increased in violence, escalating to physical assaults and, most disturbingly, bleeding walls.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 303
Intense, brilliant and moving, The Door is a compelling story about the relationship between two women of opposing backgrounds and personalities: one, an intellectual and writer; the other, her housekeeper, a mysterious, elderly woman who sets her own rules and abjures religion, education, pretense and any kind of authority. Beneath this hardened exterior of Emerence lies a painful story that must be concealed.

The first audiobook which appeared in Georges Simenon's famous Maigret series, in a gripping new translation by David Bellos.Inevitably Maigret was a hostile presence in the Majestic. He constituted a kind of foreign body that the hotel's atmosphere could not assimilate. Not that he looked like a cartoon policeman. He didn't have a moustache and he didn't wear heavy boots. His clothes were well cut and made of fairly light worsted. He shaved every day and looked after his hands. But his frame was proletarian. He was a big, bony man.

Powers of Darkness is an incredible literary discovery. In 1900, Icelandic publisher and writer Valdimar Asmundsson set out to translate Bram Stoker's world-famous 1897 novel Dracula. Called Makt Myrkranna (literally, 'Powers of Darkness'), this Icelandic edition included an original preface written by Stoker himself. Makt Myrkranna was published in Iceland in 1901 but remained undiscovered outside of the country until 1986, when Dracula scholarship was astonished by the discovery of Stoker's preface to the book.

Fascinating and reverent from the Godfather of Par
A good performance from a book straight from the Godfather of Parapsychology. I think he may have invented ghosts :-)
In all seriousness, This man genius knows few boundaries and he's truly fearless, curious and observant. If you like a non bias scientific approach to the paranormal it's for you. Just the facts!

Amazing collection, and a great narrator !!!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Absolutely the stories are so well detailed and give you real insights to the situations and people involved.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Gothic Ghosts?
I dont want to give any spoilers. but truly every story has a great moment with all the research involved.
Which character – as performed by Jim Tedder – was your favorite?
I love when he narrates the females I feel a lot of men have a hard time "feeling out" a woman's emotions through words. he was spot on.
If you could give Gothic Ghosts a new subtitle, what would it be?
A amazing collections of ghost stories you HAVE NOT heard yet . :)
Any additional comments?
I just think this book is worth your credit and or the full price. I will be re-listening again and again ! thank you!

Not really what I was wanting…
I went into this wanting amazing tales of ghost stories with some excitement. What I got was snores. Made it through about 1/3 of the book before I had to quit. The narrator sounds like a robot and his inflection and cadence was so distracting, I couldn’t enjoy the book. Perhaps it would have been more interesting with a different narrator.

Great shorts on Ghosts!
I enjoyed this one - as Hans Holzer did a lot of different research, bringing some unique stories and perspectives. A great read if you are looking for a short weekend book!

We enjoyed the book
I had come across Holzer Files on the Travel Channel and had watched the show with my Mom - in - Love. Then I started looking to see more about if there were books about or by him. It turns out that there are many.
I started with this one and enjoyed his journey around Ireland. He found out history and who lived in the areas he visited. Together with Cybil and his wife Kathryn they would visit various haunted places and Cybil would go into a trance and let the spirit speak through her. In many cases, they would be able to help them move on.

GREAT SPOOKY TALES
GOTHIC GHOSTS BY HANS HOLZER AND NARRATED BY JIM TEDDER is 8 hours of true hauntings from all over the country. Spooky haunted houses to haunted farms,and these ghosts can bring the goose pimples up on your arms!
Mr Tedder did a very good job with narration, adding to the creepiness of the stories.
I received this audiobook free in exchange for an honest review.

Worthless
The narrator read like a fifth grader giving a book report. The stories have more fiction than fact to them...I did some research. I wanted to sit through a root canal without painkillers.
