Book – Haunted Rock River Valley

Description

Haunted Rockford Paranormal Events owner and local historian Kathi Kresol publishes a regular column “Voices from the Grave” in “The Rock River Times”, and her very popular history articles have appeared in multi-contributor anthologies Secret Rockford and Rockford Writes, also on hauntedrockford.com.

Haunted Rock River Valley is a new collection of stories from Rockford’s own local historian and author Kathi Kresol, and is a natural follow-up to Kathi’s very popular 2015 book Murder & Mayhem in Rockford and Haunted Rockford, Illinois, 2017.

From the back cover:

“Legends, Lies, and Mayhem Along The Rock River”

“Best known for its beautiful scenery and recreational opportunities, the Rock River Valley overflows with eerie tales of ghostly encounters that suggest that the line between the living and dead is thinner here. The river starts near Waupun, where the nearby Wisconsin State Prison Cemetery contains a dark entity that haunts the grave of a murderer. It travels southward through towns like Beloit, where the students at the local college share stories of entities that linger in the halls. Crossing the state line, the city of Rockford has its own claims of ghostly encounters. The river finally joins the Mississippi in Rock Island, where ghosts of the gangsters who once called this area home still reign at the Rock Island Roadhouse. Author Kathi Kresol weaves together the legends and history of the sleepless dead along this historic river.”
