Ghosts and Legends of Spokane

9781467146357

$21.99

Spokane is brimming with haunted buildings and shades reluctant to leave their beloved city.

Patsy and Mary Clark have refused to leave their glorious mansion even after their passing, and the ghost of Ellen, who plunged to her death from a skylight in 1920, still whispers to current guests at the extravagant Davenport Hotel. In Greenwood Cemetery, a set of haunted stairs attracts visitors who come to see if the spirits will prevent them from reaching the top.

Join author Deborah Cuyle as she explores the Lilac City’s haunted landmarks and the colorful stories of its former residents.

Tacoma's Haunted History

9781467131094

$24.99

Tacoma hides in the shadows of Seattle, but what hides in the shadows of Tacoma? The city's paranormal history is riddled with Native American culture, spiritualists, mysterious deaths, tragedy, and curses that dwell in the dark. Much of Tacoma is built directly on top of sacred lands, and many natives to the area can attest that the city is haunted by its past. Desecration of graves can leave troubling results. Hexed citizens can perish. An untimely death can leave behind a soul. These unfortunate circumstances bring forth tales of the strange and unexplainable. Are we alone in Tacoma or accompanied by ghosts of the past?

True Tales of Puget Sound

9781467139694

$24.99

From the shores of Gig Harbor to the slopes of Mount Rainier, the towns surrounding Puget Sound all have incredible stories to share. How did Old Fort Nisqually, now perched on a lofty bluff above Tacoma, move twenty-two miles from its original 1843 site in DuPont? Did Eatonville's copper-infused paint inspire the phrase painting the town red? Read about the famed Pie Goddess of Enumclaw and about a cookbook compiled by Emma Smith DeVoe of Parkland that included helpful tips from suffragettes. Join author Dorothy Wilhelm, of the television show My Home Town, as she explores these beloved town tales and uncovers the rest of the story.

Haunted Snohomish

9781467136976

$21.99

Historic Snohomish has enough ghostly tales for a town twice its size. A policeman named Henry, who died on the floor of the Oxford Tavern, haunts the popular watering hole alongside nearly twenty other impish spirits. Incarcerated for everything from public drunkenness to coldblooded murder, former inmates still crowd the cells of the old county jail on First Street, banging against the metal confines. Locals attribute the faint lilt of a fiddle heard near the railroad tracks to the spirit of the sad, sullen man who committed suicide on the nearby bluff. Author Deborah Cuyle reveals the chilling history, strange stories and wandering souls that refuse to leave their lovely town.

Vashon Island Visitors

9781467197489

$9.99

FINDING THEIR MISSING GRANDMA WILL BE NO SMALL FEAT!

Rubi and her much more daring—and skateboard-obsessed—brother, Quinn, are visiting their grandmother on beautiful Vashon Island for the weekend. It’s the first time they’ve taken the ferry from Seattle by themselves. But weirdly, when they arrive, Nana is nowhere to be found!

Then their Uncle James lets them in on a little secret: Bigfoot may have been spotted! And their Nana isn’t any old grandma—she’s the most famous Bigfoot hunter around! Trouble is, Nana should’ve returned by now. And nobody in all of Puget Sound has seen her! At least... nobody human.

Rubi and Quinn will have to follow the footprints (and scat!), crack the clues, and rely on each other to find their Nana and bring her home... that is, unless Bigfoot finds them first!
