From the psychology behind why we like to be afraid to the ghostly tales of yesterday and today, it will all be discovered in a fun and educational setting.

Written by para-historians Tonya Hacker and Tammy Wilson, Ghostlahoma will chill your bones and warm your heart with over 40 true tales of hauntings from the Sooner State. From the first published ghost story in Oklahoma to present day phantom hitchhikers, this book will take you through over 100 years of Oklahoma’s haunted history.

The El Reno Convention and Visitor’s Bureau will be hosting historically themed Upper Floor Tours and dinner events later in the evening in downtown El Reno. There will also be trolley tours that are fundraisers for the Preserve El Reno Program. Dinner will be available for purchase at the main event at the Elk’s Lodge.

GHOULI, Eerie Oklahoma, and the Ghost Divas strive to preserve and promote Oklahoma’s history through research and to present it in educational and fun venues. ###END

HAUNTED LIBRARIES

Oklahoma Libraries are great community resources providing information and recreation to an entire community and to inquiring strangers. They will usually offer courteous and factual information to even a paranormal researcher. It is recommended that instead of dropping in to demand to see the "spooky stuff", a group or individual should develop a relationship with the library, offer to volunteer, and help with fundraising, etc. Demonstrate that Paranormal groups give back to their communities...

"Broken Bow Public Library. This 1998 building stands on the site of a former high school. Sometimes at closing, staff members report a cold spot and argumentative voices in the southeastern corner of the library.

Inola Public Library. Books often move themselves forward and fall off the shelves in this small facility built in 1969.

Waurika Public Library. Housed in a historic Rock Island railway depot built in 1912, this library’s haunt is responsible for books falling repeatedly off the shelves, phantom telephone rings, and doors opening and closing. A translucent male apparition has been photographed. "
