America's Haunted Asylums: A Ghost Hunter's Guide - Paperback

Ghost hunters and urban adventurers will find Jeff Dwyer's America's Haunted Asylums to be an essential guide to places where opportunities for paranormal encounters are greatest. Spanning the country - from the Pacific Northwest, to southern states, and the upper East Coast - this book presents detailed histories of haunted asylums, patients whose spirits remain incarcerated, and the doctors and staff who perpetrated unimaginable neglect, abuse, and torture. With the skill of a historian and insight of a seasoned paranormal investigator, Jeff Dwyer offers readers the experience of visiting thirty abandoned insane asylums where lobotomy, electro-convulsive shock, and other heinous medical experiments created a vast population of ghosts.
