Echoes of a Haunting

Echoes of a Haunting recounts the true story of a real haunted house although the author prefers the word disturbed. Do not expect the usual tale filled with blood running down the walls demons jumping out of closets heads pivoting while spewing pea soup or seances with levitating mediums. Instead the horror that lived in the House in the Country began slowly and quietly. It gradually built in intensity until living there became unbearable. The author's family normal by any criteria began to earn an unfair reputation as devil worshipers and kooks. Despite efforts by various psychics and clergymen to ease the pressure the house eventually won. When emotional and psychic shocks turned to physical threats it became impossible to stay. The book attempts in diary form to trace the trajectory of the haunting. The author was born in Buffalo New York.
