Synopsis:

Hop In and Hang On for Seattle’s Grandest Ghost Hunt

Seattle may not be as old as some would expect from a haunted city. But it has a large number of haunted sites and stories. Spooked in Seattle, by Ross Allison, leads readers on a journey through Seattle's neighborhoods while teaching the city's history and tales of strange encounters. For those who love to venture off in search of ghosts and the unknown, this book will set readers forth in the right direction. Spooked in Seattle features more than 150 haunted locations, historic and contemporary photos, top ten questions about ghosts, Seattle's top ten most haunted places, location maps and addresses, Seattle history and haunted facts, Seattle cemeteries and tombstone symbols, and more. All of these stories are broken down into sections based on the city's neighborhoods to make finding them easier for ghost enthusiasts. Maps and photos help bring the locations to life, making the Seattle ghosthunting experience easy and enjoyable.
