My passion is history. I love to read all that I can get my hands on, uncovering the stories that hide in the crumbling walls and behind the names on the headstones in forgotten burial grounds. The history in our own backyards shaped who we are today, it is in our souls. The old bones of a house have stories to tell and cemeteries hide secrets, I give them a voice in writing about the tales that unfold before me.
As a lover of history and an amateur paranormal historian, I and interested in life (and death) in this beautiful world of ours. Some of my posts from time to time show the spirits and afterlife connected to our local history, occasionally bordering on the macabre. All of this, I believe is part of our souls.
Beside writing these little blog posts, I am a former paranormal researcher/historian and also an author of 4 books, two of which are through the History Press and two are self-published. Check out Ghosts and Hauntings of the Finger Lakes (2012), Hidden History of the Finger Lakes (2018), The Great Lakes Seaway Trail: History, Legends and Mysteries (2019) and The Silver Lake Institute (2019).
I hope you enjoy reading my blogs as much as I enjoyed creating them for you.
