In this book, you are about to discover some of the creepiest and most intriguing haunted objects ever owned by people just like you. Many times, these individuals do not even realize these haunted items are in their possession - until it is too late. In her latest book, ghost hunter and author Sarah Ashley, will highlight some of the most popular (and some lesser known) stories of haunted objects that have come to life, scared the life out of their owners, caused mayhem and panic, and in some cases, are murderous. It may be hard to believe, but in the supernatural world, there are no limits to objects that can be possessed. Dolls and stuffed animals, paintings, clothing, chairs, antique furniture, jewelry, cars and mirrors are among the most commonly haunted items paranormal professionals have come across. For years, supernatural psychological horror films have earned box office millions. Both believers and non-believers alike flock to movies when they involve the possibility that a seemingly harmless object might have supernatural capabilities. It might seem to some that these movies are the work of a very creative writer. However, as you are about to learn, many of these stories are either documented as factual or based on factual events with a little drama placed in for cinematic enhancement. Join Sarah as she separates the myths from the facts. Finally, in the last section of this book, Sarah takes you behind the scenes of haunted movie sets. It seems that for decades, ghosts and poltergeists have haunted certain movie sets and production crews, often causing tragic accidents and rumors of unspeakable mishaps. Learn which movie sets are filled with ironic, scary and unexplainable incidences. Sarah Ashley's latest book is truly tantalizing and one you won't want to miss!
This book was very in-depth about all kinds of things that are haunted - there is no limit to what kind of things - trinkets, dolls, movie sets, etc. There were some movie sets I had read about that were haunted, but there was some different ones that I didn't know about. This was a really good book and I could hardly put it down. It will make you think twice when you go into a thrift store or flea market and buy something as you don't really know where that trinket or doll has been or what kind of paranormal "thing" has attached itself to it and what maybe you have brought into your home. Great read!
This was a well researched and Interesting book about haunted artifacts. It covers several different types (cars, dolls, paintings) and gives history and background information. Of particular interest is the Annabelle doll, giving what really happened as opposed to popular myths. The author also includes haunted films and shows. A great book and audio book about real spooky tales of haunted items.
Interesting stories of the ghostly items and hauntings. Not many of these were new, or unknown to fans of paranormal shows. Overall, decent, but not earthshattering.
If you enjoy a good ghost story (or many good ghost stories), Haunted Artifacts provides an entertaining ride through many of the well-known and lesser-known stories that involve everything from dolls to trinkets to the hot-spot of random thrift store gems. It is akin to a great campfire setting, just creepy enough to get under your skin, and just intriguing enough (in moments) to make you wonder about what is true and what is not (as every good ghost related tale should). A good way to pass the time, and if you are listening on audiobook form (as I did), a decent way to pass the time on the road.
I enjoyed reading the stories in this book, but there were times where it was difficult to follow the story because of typos or other errors within the text.
