Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death is a destination of finality. We are all headed towards this destination, which, depending on beliefs, leads us to an afterlife, or to a never-ending sleep. Throughout the pages in the book, I will explore questions that we all have regarding the processes of death and beliefs of an afterlife. The stories shrouded in the mystery of death will hold a true testament to the beliefs of groups throughout history and today. There are times when spirits can align themselves with people within this plane. When this happens, we can either look at it as if there is a mental condition, or a deeper meaning that perpetuates within the psyche of the paranormal. Many of us out there would question the mental make-up of someone that writes about such instances. I can say from personal experience, that this phenomenon occurs, and maybe at a higher rate than we realize. The paranormal has always been an interest of mine through the years. Whether the typical movie at the theater, or visiting areas that have been a hot spot for activity from enthusiasts. Several years ago, during a family vacation we visited two such sites; Bullock Hotel in Deadwood, South Dakota and the Villisca Axe Murder House in Villisca, Iowa. Like all families, we had fun experiencing such sites that the "Ghost Hunters" have visited. Chasing ghosts was a fun activity and seemed harmless. Although there have been occurrences in my life that I cannot physically explain. I have broken down the stories in my book in occurrences that I have personally experienced. Take a look, examine the situation and believe what you wish regarding the paranormal and how it affects us in our daily lives. Compiling a list of the top 10 most haunted destinations in the Midwest is a daunting task to say the least. As a novice investigator with abilities that many would say is mind blowing, I will be sharing personal accounts with the unknown, along with experiences from other investigators in the region. There are several unknown and known locations listed in the top 10, some may just surprise you. One thing to keep in mind as you contemplate the locations in the top 10, that these are real experiences of the participants involved and myself. The participants or myself have visited the locations on numerous occasions, and hours of evidence have been examined to share with you within the pages of the book. Sit back, relax, and get ready for the list that will blow your mind and may perhaps change the minds of skeptics everywhere.
