Imagine my surprise when I discover that I grew up in the same town that this haunting took place! Then I was surprised again to see that she once worked in the factory that my dad manages! It was nice knowing exactly what the town she described looked like! I had no idea when I ordered this book that the story takes place in Madison Indiana! I even remember watching something about this haunting on TV when I was a kid!

I really enjoyed this book! I like that it terrified me and in the end left me feeling at ease.
I don't beleive that Doretta is responsible for the things that went on in her home. I do agree that she has some psychic abilitys but the home no matter who lives in it is going to be haunted by it's past.
If you like to read about real hauntings then you'll enjoy this book!
