This humble cottage is the home of Daniel Teed, shoemaker. Everybody knows and respects honest hard working Dan, who never owes a dollar if he can help it, and never allows his family to want for any comfort that can be procured, with his hard earned salary as foreman of the Amherst Shoe Factory. Dan's family consists of his wife Olive, as good a soul as ever lived, always hard at work. From early morning until dusky eve she is on her feet. It has always been a matter of gossip and astonishment, among the neighbors, as to how little Mrs. Teed, for she is by no means what you would call a large woman, could work so incessantly without becoming weary and resting for an hour or so after dinner. But she works on all the same, never rests, and they still look on her with astonishment. Dan and Olive have two little boys. Willie, the eldest, is five years old; he is a strong, healthy looking lad, with a ruddy complexion, blue eyes, and brown curly hair; his principal amusements are throwing stones, chasing the chickens, and hurting his little brother.

In the summer of 1878, at 6 Princess Street in Amherst, Nova Scotia, a close-knit family's quiet life was turned upside down by the arrival of a malevolent, unseen force. The sinister presence wreaked havoc on the house's occupants, throwing objects large and small, setting fires, creating loud noises day and night, and even assaulting household members. At the center of the disturbances, a 19 year-old girl upon whom the entity fixed its attention, announcing its intent with a horrifying declaration carved into a bedroom wall: "Esther Cox, you are mine to kill!" Thus began the most spectacular case of poltergeist haunting of the 19th century. In "The Great Amherst Mystery," Walter Hubbell, an eyewitness to the Amherst phenomena, tells the story of Esther Cox, her family, and his attempts to solve the mystery of the Amherst poltergeist. Based upon his own personal diaries, as well as the sworn affidavits of other witnesses, Hubbell crafts a compelling case for an evil agent beyond the scope of human understanding. This deluxe edition of "The Great Amherst Mystery" contains additional details not seen in any other edition and a report by Hereward Carrington, a respected spiritual investigator who conducted his own investigation (including interviewing Esther Cox) that corroborated Hubbell's story.
Large Format for easy reading. Eye witness account of a ''real'' and highly publicised haunting that took place in the USA in the 1950,s
