It belonged to Abraham and Julia Staab, who emigrated from Germany in the mid-nineteenth century. After they died, the house became a hotel. And in the 1970s, the hotel acquired a resident ghost—a sad, dark-eyed woman in a long gown. Strange things began to happen there: vases moved, glasses flew, blankets were ripped from beds. Julia Staab died in 1896—but her ghost, they say, lives on. In American Ghost, Julia’s great-great-granddaughter, Hannah Nordhaus, traces her ancestor’s transfiguration from nineteenth-century Jewish bride to modern phantom. Family diaries, photographs, and newspaper clippings take her on a riveting journey through three hundred years of German history and the American immigrant experience. With the help of historians, genealogists, family members, and ghost hunters, she weaves a masterful, moving story of fin-de-siècle Europe and pioneer life, villains and visionaries, medicine and spiritualism, imagination and truth, exploring how lives become legends, and what those legends tell us about who we are.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Twenty-five real-life tales of hauntings and ghostly encounters across America, by the author of Houses of Horror and Ghost Hunter’s Strangest Cases. Hans Holzers Real Hauntings continues his account of true, authenticated case histories of haunting throughout the United States. From the restless shade of a sea captain on Cape Cod, to the remorseful parishioner at St. Mark’s in New York City who is unable to forget her extramarital affair, to the little girl ghost of Landsdowne, Pennsylvania, who can’t quite understand what happened to her world, Real Hauntings chronicles the fascinating and dramatic accounts of the true experiences that ordinary people have had with the world beyond our own. New Hampshire, Virginia, California, Louisiana, Minnesota—ghostly encounters can occur anywhere and to anyone. Among the many remarkable encounters in Real Hauntings is the story about the ghost of a young girl killed during a wild party in Hollywood; the testimony of tenants at an eighteen-century carriage house in New York City’s Hell’s Kitchen regarding the several ghosts they have encountered; and the account of the piano-playing phantom in an old house in Arkansas. In all, twenty-five true, witnessed accounts are reported here by Dr. Hans Holzer.
