Just in
time for Halloween, James A. Willis will give some insight into what it's like
to go ghost hunting when he presents "Meet The Ghosts of Ohio" at 7:00 p.m. on
Monday, Oct. 18 in the Rodman Public Library Auditorium.
Willis, a
nationally known paranormal researcher and author, is the founder of The
Ghosts of Ohio (ghostsofohio.org). The organization, which is dedicated to
investigating and researching reported hauntings in the state of Ohio, has
grown to well over 35 members with divisions in Columbus, Cleveland and
Cincinnati, making it one of the oldest and most-active organizations of its
kind in the state.
Willis has
also authored several books, including "The Big Book of Ohio Ghost Stories,"
"Ohio's Historic Haunts," and "Central Ohio Legends & Lore." He has also
contributed to six books in the Weird US series.
During his
visit to Rodman Library, Willis will explain what it's really like to go
looking for ghosts and whether or not it's at all like all of those popular
reality TV shows.
He will
also share some of his findings from across the state over the past 17 years,
including some ghostly audio, video and photographs. If that doesn't scare
those in attendance away, Willis will demonstrate some of the equipment used
during his investigations and give those in the audience a chance to try the
instruments on their own.
To get in
on the frightful fun, patrons should register on Rodman Library's online
calendar at rodmanlibrary.evanced.info/signup or call 330-821-2665, ext. 107.
