About the author

Brian Clune is a paranormal researcher and historian associated with Planet Paranormal Investigations, and the author of several books on California hauntings. Haunted Southern California (History Press, 2022) and Ghosts and Legends of Alcatraz (History Press) collect reported hauntings tied to specific sites, from desert stage stops to the former federal prison. Legends & Lore Along California's Highway 395 (2022) follows the route from Victorville to Carson City, gathering stories of ghost towns and reported cryptid sightings along the way, while Hollywood Obscura: Death, Murder, and the Paranormal Aftermath (Schiffer Publishing, 2017) examines twelve Hollywood murder cases and their associated paranormal claims. Clune's books consistently combine local history research with collected ghost-lore, aimed at readers interested in California's haunted geography rather than formal paranormal investigation methodology.
