Description
Maritime Mysteries chronicles the restless spirits, ghostly apparitions, eerie poltergeists, and haunted houses that surround us. With its jagged seacoast, rich history, and a deep-rooted appreciation for the art of storytelling, the Maritime provinces have an extensive tradition of tales of the supernatural, handed down over generations. In this new edition of the classic book, Bill Jessome brings together over eighty of the region's most spine-tingling tales--both old and new--that you wouldn't believe in your wildest dreams--maybe in your spookiest nightmares! Featuring a new cover design and updated foreword from journalist and nephew Phonse Jessome.
