The Ghosts of Belcourt Castle

From the man buried in concrete under the banquet hall to the poltergeist in the library, there's hardly a room in Belcourt Castle that is specter free. In The Ghosts of Belcourt Castle, author Harle Tinneyshares her experiences with these paranormal occurrences during the more than fifty years she has lived in her home of Belcourt Castle.

Accompanied by photographs, The Ghosts of Belcourt Castle recounts stories of the apparitions seen at this castle in Newport, Rhode Island. This sixty-room mansion was completed in 1894, but it stood empty for many years until the Tinney family purchased it in 1956.

Based on personal anecdotes and third-party stories, Tinney recounts some of the home's visitors-from the mysterious monk, to the pink lady in the Madame's bedroom, to the suit of armor that screams, to the ghostly dancers in the French Gothic ballroom, and the arm that points through the staircase. Judging from the list of apparitions who've visited the home, Belcourt Castle might just be the most haunted house in America.
