Haunted Graveyard of the Pacific

Haunted America

by Ira Wesley Kitmacher

Despite its idyllic setting, the coast of the Pacific Northwest has another, darker name by which it is the "Graveyard of the Pacific." Two thousand ships and countless lives have been lost to the waters of the Pacific Ocean, and the Columbia River has claimed many more. The spirits of early settlers, Native Americans and drowned mariners are said to linger near the shores. From ghostly treasure hunters eternally searching for buried gold to a graveyard filled with souls that met violent ends, legends abound. Join author Ira Wesley Kitmacher as he uncovers mysterious tales and takes readers on a road trip through this most haunted place in America.

I really enjoyed this book. Generally I'm not a history buff and have a hard time focusing on historical or factual information. The writer makes the stories intriguing and I would like to visit some of the haunted sites just to experience the moment. The book is easy to read, interesting and educational at the same time.

As a Washington local, I really enjoyed learning some ghost stories and legends about the area I call home. I’m giving it 4 stars due to the fact that some of the mentioned places are no longer operating as businesses. Do your research before visiting these places and learn some exciting history about this beautiful and spooky area!

I love visiting the Pacific Northwest and have always been fascinated by the history. This book just brings the area to life, so to speak, by telling tales of the supernatural. Brilliant!! Definitely recommend!!

It started out strong, but the content is sometimes repetitive and there are a few parts that probably should have been left out due to the lack of information. But overall, it piqued my interest and I'd like to learn more.

Started strong but seemed a bit rushed as it goes on. Lots of great historical information but the info surrounding paranormal activities and sightings isn't very in depth.

A great book.

Haunted Graveyard of the Pacific was a fun read. As I am familiar with many of the towns described in the book, my fascination with the stories made it a tingly page turner. The author did his research.

Meh

Sort of fun, interesting history - but also quite redundant. I am glad to learn I now live in what was once considered the most wicked city in the country.

This was a great book. I particularly liked the way this book covered a road trip. I liked a bit of lore from each haunted location.

This was a very fun read, and a good escape into stories while in the midst of a stressful season.
