Sleepy Places

I wrote this book because I wanted children to enjoy reading about sleeping animals and listening to the rhymes. This book is factual because the ways and places in which animals sleep are accurate.

America's Most Ghostly Places: New York State: A Psychic Medium's Guide to Investigating Haunted Locations will enlighten your view of ghosts and make you more sensitive to paranormal activity. The state of New York is home to a large number of haunted sites populated by ghosts—people who have died sudden or violent deaths and have been unable to rest in peace. These ghosts and spirits inhabit bars and restaurants, cemeteries, homes, and popular historic sites, many times hoping to find someone who can relay an important message to their loved ones before making their journey to the other side. Nationally acclaimed psychic medium and communicator to the spirits, Jeffrey A. Wands, has been interacting with ghosts and spirits for the majority of his life and is now sharing stories about those he has encountered in New York’s most ghostly places, including who they were when they were alive, what happened to them before they died, and what paranormal activity has been reported by visitors to these haunted sites.
