Book Review: Dark Force
This book is absolutely compelling and interesting, and also frightening but ultimately uplifting. It is the story of the Bean family, an average, all-American family consisting of Bill Sr., Bill Jr., his younger brother Bobby, older sister Patti and mother Patricia who move into a home in Glen Burnie, Maryland, in 1970, and all were really put-upon by spirits, which Bill believes caused his father to abuse his mother. Bill Sr. became an alcoholic, and never believed in spirits occupying the home. The spirits were an "Undertaker" type with dark hair, black eyes, dark period clothing and a black hat; a red-haired man with a jagged scar on his face; an evil entity with no discernible features except red eyes and a woman spirit, which was almost angelic in her countenance and attitude. The small family, as well as members of the family such as Mom-Mom and Aunt Joyce, also experienced unusual happenings in the house. The hauntings went on for a decade until-well, I will let you read the book for yourself to see the rest of the details. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is a good fan of a good ghost story. It can be purchased at lulu.com and also Amazon.com (it can also be purchased as an e-book at lulu.com) Further details can be found

on the Bluff Creek expedition and the famous encounter on the trail,
made immortal in the 24 feet of film images Patterson recorded.

Mutant Canines - Mans best friend is many times our last line of defense. But something strange is killing Fido. In 2006, a rash of pets were killed in Maine and Minnesota by a beast locals describe as a mutant. But there are more than just stories, a creature was hit by a car and the body was found. This strange looking creature will be DNA tested to see what it really is. And two MonsterQuest winter expeditions will be launched to trap other dog killers still at large.
Wednesday December 5th at 10PM Check local listings for time and channel.

CD Review: Stealing The Fire From Heaven by Shane Speal
If you love blues like I do, you will absolutely LOVE this independently-produced CD, full of some the best original Blues tracks I have ever heard. Song titles range from The Claw to Black Horse Ride to A Dream OF You to Song of The Scarecrow. There is a cover version (two of them, actually) of an old gospel song, Titled variously In The Garden of Gethsemane Part 1 and Part 2. Shane Speal plays an eclectic variety of instruments, from a 3-string cigar box guitar with spark plug slide to a mailbox dobro to cigar box kalimba to turbo-Diddly cigar-box guitar to electric six-string cigar box guitar. This album is highly recommended and full information can be found at Welcome to cigarboxguitar.com... Official site of Shane Speal I give this album 5 VERY enthusiastic stars!!!!!! EXCELSIOR!!!!!!
