Download Holy Ghosts: Or How a (Not-so) Good Catholic Boy Became a Believer in Things that Go Bump in the Night AudioBook Free
In this incredible true story, the haunting of a Long Island household makes a respected copy writer and editor to reevaluate the mysteries of life and fatality as he battles with the frightening truths of his childhood home and his town's history. Growing up in Rockville Centre, Long Island, Gary Jansen never assumed in ghosts. His mother-a devoutly Catholic girl with a keen sense for the uncanny-claimed that their family house was haunted. But Jansen never found anything inexplicable in how their doorbell would sometimes ring of its accord or in the secret looks of footsteps or breaking glass that occasionally would fill their house - or even in his mother's sometimes unnervingly correct visions of future events and tragedies. Though he once experienced a supernatural face in a Prague cathedral as a young man, Jansen was raised into a rationalist, as well as a noted copy writer and editor. In 2001 Jansen moved back into the very same house where he previously once grown up, to raise a family with his partner. In 2007 he experienced a frightening, full-blown haunting in his home. This is the first episode of a phenomenon that lasted a full year and finally included unveiling the identities of the spirits who occupied his house, reliving a tragic murder in his hometown, encountering mind-boggling coincidences between local background and episodes in his household; and finally-with the assistance of Mary Ann Winkowski, the real-life motivation for TV's Ghost Whisperer-ridding his house of these uninvited visitors. Holy Spirits is not only a gripping true-life ghost story, but a wry and coming in contact with memoir, as well as a meditation on the partnership between religion and the paranormal, which are generally considered at probabilities, but that your writer shows are intimately linked.
