Haunted Hikes of NH

I attended a lecture on Tuesday at the Hampstead Public Library. The guest speaker was Marianne O'Connor, author of Haunted Hikes of New Hampshire. I've read the book, so I was really interested to see what else she had to say.

Different crowd than when I went to see the Jackie Kennedy impersonator (the attendees there were all middle aged to elderly middle class white women), this audience had a lot more men and tween boys in it.

She used Powerpoint, with sound effects, showing us photos of the various places she's investigated. It was a lot of fun, I heard some more about the stories I remembered from the book (and other books I've read on the subject) as well as a couple of new things.

I wished there was more, though. It seemed to be over too soon (even if I was so tired I nearly fell asleep twice).

I would love to go on more "haunted hikes" if I had the energy and felt better more often.
