Book Synopsis



Ghost stories from the Berkshires have never been so creepy, fun, and full of mystery!/

em>Welcome to the spooky Berkshires!/em>

Stay Alert! Ghosts lurk around every corner. Even the most unexpected places might be haunted by wandering phantoms.

Did you know that at the Mount, the former home of famous author Edith Wharton, a shadowy phantom haunts the halls? Or that a ghost train still steams through the Hoosac Tunnel? Can you believe there's a top-hatted ghost who wakes guests in the night at the historic Red Lion Inn in Stockbridge?

Pulled right from history, these ghostly tales will change the way you see the Berkshires forever, and have you sleeping with the lights on!



About the Author



Ever since he was a kid growing up in northern New Jersey, Robert Oakes has loved to write songs and tell stories. But it wasn't until he started leading ghost tours at The Mount in Lenox, MA, that he became especially interested in the spooky side of life. Since then, Robert has published two books about ghost stories and haunted places and has offered many ghost tours and paranormal presentations. Robert also loves to teach literature and writing and currently works at Rectory School in Pomfret, CT.
