About the author
Candice Shatkins is a founding member of the Paranormal Investigators of Kenosha and the author of Haunted Kenosha: Ghosts, Legends and Bizarre Tales (History Press, 2009). The book collects local ghost stories and unusual history tied to Kenosha, Wisconsin, including accounts of a hidden burial chamber beneath a library and other regional legends gathered through her work with the local paranormal investigation group. Written for a general audience, it fits within the wider genre of regional ghost-story collections published by History Press, mixing local history with reported hauntings rather than offering analysis or theory about the paranormal. The book will appeal most to readers interested in Wisconsin history and local folklore, or to fans of location-based ghost-hunting guides, rather than to readers looking for academic or comparative studies of ghost belief.
