America's Haunted Road Trip

by Jeff Morris, Garett Merk, Dain Charbonneau

Twin Cities Haunted Handbook is the newest book in the Haunted Handbook line within the popular America's Haunted Road Trip series. The Haunted Handbooks are city-specific travel guides to nearly one hundred places within a major city.

Twin Cities Haunted Handbook is written with the ghost enthusiast in mind. All 100 chapters contain information on the history as well as the haunting surrounding each location, as well as detailed directions on how to locate each site. Many of the chapters also contain insider information that only a local would know, making it easier for ghost hunters to investigate. Ghost hunters Jeff Morris, Garett Merk, and Dain Charbonneau explore all the best haunted locales Minneapolis has to offer, including Dead Man's Pond, Memorial Pet Cemetery, Padelford Packet Boat Company, the Old Jail Bed and Breakfast, and St. Thomas College and the Legend of the 13 Graves.

Each two page entry includes directions from downtown, an historical overview of the haunted place, the story of ghostly doings in that place, and advice on visiting the place yourself--if you dare.

I found this one fairly enjoyable, certainly not so corny as a lot of ghost books are. My complaints...I'm from Minnesota, and I was disappointed with the lack of diversity in the locations featured. I kept hoping to see my suburb, or even a neighboring one, but no such luck. Also the descriptions of the hauntings were pretty thin.

Love ghost stories and anything paranormal and spiritual. This book was awesome because I have visited Minneapolis twice as well as some of those places described in the book. And yes, I did find some ghost activity at one of those places exactly as described in the book. Love it

Lots of new places I hadn’t even heard of! I like that the authors tell you if the places are open to the public, etc.
