New England Nightmares: True Tales of the Strange and Gothic

New England is renowned for its quaint towns, beautiful landscapes, and busy ports. But it is also infamous as the setting for unexplained deaths, ghost stories, bizarre murders, and peculiar wills and epitaphs.

In New England Nightmares: True Tales of the Strange and Gothic , author Keven McQueen explores the darker and stranger side of New England. With shocking and unforgettable tales from New York, New Jersey, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maine, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania, this eerie collection explores our fascination with death and the unknown, including tales of medical students exhuming bodies to be used as cadavers, of a murderer’s bones being wired together after death, and of Dr. Timothy Clark Smith’s will, which requested that he be buried with a breathing tube and glass window so he could see the outside world.

An intriguing and frightful look into the odder side of the Northeast from the tip of Maine all the way to the New Jersey shore, New England Nightmares promises to send chills down your spine.
