About the author
Thea Lewis is a Vermont-based guide, known for leading the Queen City Ghostwalk tours in Burlington, and the author of several regional ghost-story collections published by History Press. Her books, including Haunted Inns and Ghostly Getaways of Vermont, Ghosts and Legends of Lake Champlain, and Haunted Burlington: Spirits of Vermont's Queen City, gather reported hauntings tied to specific inns, homes, and landmarks across the state, often anchored by a notable historical guest or event, such as Mary Todd Lincoln's stays at a haunted inn. The writing draws on local history and oral tradition, presenting each site's story in the manner of a walking-tour narration rather than documented investigation. The books are suited to readers planning visits to Vermont, fans of regional ghost lore, and anyone who has taken or wants to take one of Lewis's own tours.
