HAUNTED SPACES, SACRED PLACES is a fascinating and thoroughly researched exploration of the archaeology, legends and modern mysteries of 32 ancient places throughout the world - from the mysterious megaliths of Britain and Ireland, the haunted tombs of the Etruscans and the Pagan origins of Germany's Aachen Cathedral to the ancient Native American city of Cahokia, the enigmatic Cambodian Temple of Angkor Wat and the sacred Aboriginal rock formation of Uluru. Why are strange phenomena so often connected with these ancient sites? Are certain sacred places somehow able to generate or attract paranormal phenomena? Or can such events be explained in terms of modern myth and contemporary folklore? What can the legends and folklore of ancient places throughout the world reveal to us about the beliefs and ideas of our ancient ancestors? These are just some of the questions answered in Brian Haughton's enthralling new book. In HAUNTED SPACES, SACRED PLACES you will discover: * The relationship between ancient Native American sites and unexplained phenomena in Colorado's San Luis Valley. * The truth behind the legends of the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor in China, home of the Terracotta Warriors. * The legendary history of ancient sites such as Stonehenge, Chartres Cathedral, Delphi, Cuzco and the Ohio Serpent Mound. * The prevalence of modern encounters with ghosts, UFOs, spooklights, Bigfoot and phantom dogs at ancient sacred places.
