Please try again later. This is the perfect book for a summer day at the shore I read it at Sandy Hook, the locale for many of the stories. A good amount of local history related to the stories is given, making it more than just a collection of ghost stories, but the massive historical inaccuracies in one story, "Wreck of the Blue Comet" about a train wreck in the pinelands leads me to question the historical research done.
In the book the wreck resulted in "the death of almost everybody on board" as "hundreds were killed" and "the rusting remains of the train still lie along the abandoned stretch of track". In reality 37 people were injured and nobody died, which kind of puts a damper on the possibility of ghosts hanging around the wreck site.
Still, a good ghost story is a good ghost story. Ghosts And Strange Phenomena of the Garden State Coast Haunted I have read several different books about the various ghost stories that take place along the New Jersey coast and inland. This one is well written and combines a bit of historical data to provide even more interest and linkages. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in historical accounts with a paranormal twist.
As a follow up to his outstanding "Haunted New Jersey", author Charles A Stansfield is back with some 80 more tales of ghosts and monsters of New Jersey, this time centering on the area in and around the Jersey shore. Stansfield begins with a history of the area and some of its earliest explorers, dating back to the 's. The Jersey Shore would become a haven for many pirates and smugglers over the years, visited frequently by no less than the pirate legend Captain Kidd.
In fact its said that the ghosts of Kidd's old crew still haunt the area of Barnegat Bayshore looking for the Captain's hidden treasure. While the legends of Jersey's ghosts and monsters are many, I am struck by the historical significance of so many of these legends. For example, it's said that the ghost of President Garfield still walks along Ocean Ave.
At Monmouth University, the library was formerly the stately mansion of the wealthy Guggenheim family.
Each night at midnight, a white gowned woman descends the grand stairway and disappears once she reaches the bottom. Tourists recently visiting the Monmouth Battlefield State park were treated to a park employee dressed as the legendary Molly Pitcher who brought water to American troops during the famous battle on June 28, in sweltering 96 degree heat.
