It's that time of the year again, when people's thoughts turn to what goes bump in the night. Halloween is a naturally  spooky time of the year, but the truth is that haunting and ghosts don't just come out during the chilly October nights.

The “Encyclopedia of Haunted Places” is the perfect companion for anyone looking for spine-tingling haunted vacation spots or a creepy bed and breakfast. Most people like to keep their paranormal happenings to themselves, but when you're running a business and want to make money, it doesn't hurt to capitalize on the haunted happenings.

This book provides a wealth of information on a variety of haunted locations throughout the United States. Unlike some of the more regional haunted books that are out there, you'll find a haunted place near you, no matter where you live. Many of them are hotels and bed and breakfasts that let people stay in the haunted rooms.

The pages aren't just filled with hotels though. There are many places that are off the beaten path that you can visit, or at least drive past, on your tour of the haunted United States. This book can help you plan a cross-country road trip or add a few chilling locales to an already planned vacation.

It doesn't matter if you're looking for historical spots, such as battlegrounds, or more modern examples of hauntings, this book has plenty to keep you reading. The good news is you can experience this haunted information from the safety of your own home. Don't forget that there is nothing like actually being there.
