Help For The Haunted

About the time when Houdini and Conan Doyle feuded over spiritualism, a crusading journalist named Vera Van Slyke attended and defrauded a séance led by one Lida Prasilova. This rough meeting blossomed into a lifelong friendship centered upon the exploration and explanation of when ghosts are not real, but also when they are! Vera and Lida's many adventures are documented here, in this wonderful collection of stories that will bring about as many smiles as hairs standing upon the back of one's neck. Join Vera and Lida as they prowl lonely mansions, bustling theatres, and underground train tunnels to unravel the mysteries of the spirit world and provide HELP FOR THE HAUNTED.
