Ghosts of Historic Delaware, Ohio

by John B. Ciochetty

The infamous Vaudeville Ghost that still puts on a show at the Strand, the mischievous, piano-playing poltergeists of Arts Castle and the bearded ghoul that speeds at a hellish pace down North Franklin Street in a horse-drawn carriage--these are the otherworldly denizens of Delaware, Ohio. Local ghost expert John B. Ciochetty's collection of haunted lore will have skeptics and believers alike looking over their shoulders as they walk down the darkened city streets. Behind the folklore and legends, readers will find the strange but hard facts of history that have given rise to tales of the city's restless spirits. Join Ciochetty as he explores the other side of Delaware to discover its spine-tingling, haunted history.

Pretty neat to learn about my town! Things I had no idea.

Very unimpressed with the writing style. If I wanted to read a reference manual, I'd buy one of those. Very little detail about the hauntings so far, but a lot of people, places, dates and history. Too much description of all OWU buildings and where they are in location to each other. Not everyone goes to school there to care!

Real enjoyable reading.
