Unseen Odds
by Shirley Bahlmann
Are there really such things as ghosts?
Have you ever personally entertained a visitor from the spirit world?
How would you know for sure?
Whether you’ve had an otherworldly experience or only heard of one, or even if someone has played a prank on you and scared your socks off, you’ll find yourself mesmerized by this haunting collection of true pioneer stories.
The tales range from heart-warming spiritual encounters to spooky spirits that make you tremble in your skin; from thoughtless big brothers to heart-breaking cousins.
Read about:
A chair that rocked itself
The sleek horses that became bony nags overnight
A ghost still roaming the hills of central Utah
An angel on horseback
From real brushes with the world of spirits to pranks that those fun-loving pioneers played on one another, you’ll be riveted to your seat when you lose yourself in these tales of unexplained mystery.
You may want to leave the light on.

Reviews-
"Unseen Odds is an entertaining collection of old-fashioned fright stories and strange supernatural occurrences, based upon pioneer journals and family histories. Among the true, yet unexplainable tales, is a heart-warming story about a rocking chair that rocks itself, an unsolved mystery involving a ghostly doctor reaching out from beyond the grave to assist a young couple in need, and a Poe-like tale of a black cat with nine lives. Following each story is a brief excerpt explaining the actual events on which the story is based. Recommended reading for fans of old-fashioned ghost stories and mysteries." -Rachelle Nones
