The Great Amherst Mystery - Walter Hubbell - Bog

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.
