“To be haunted is to glimpse a truth that might best be hidden.”
James Herbert“To be haunted is to glimpse a truth that might best be hidden.”
James Herbert, Haunted“The popular notion that ghosts are likely to be seen in a graveyard is not borne out by psychical research... A haunting ghost usually haunts a place that a person lived in or frequented while alive... Only a gravedigger's ghost would be likely to haunt a graveyard.”
John H. Alexander, Ghosts! Washington Revisited: The Ghostlore of the Nation's Capitol“It was haunted”
but real hauntings have nothing to do with ghosts finally“The main work of haunting is done by the living”
Judith Richardson, Possessions: The History and Uses of Haunting in the Hudson Valley“I didn't sleep well last night because one of my ghosts came back, haunting with his presence, and when I woke up, the others weren't here, haunting with their memory.”
Donna Lynn Hope“My father's haunting memories of war had been transformed into my own haunting memories. Such is the power of war and memory.”
Roger Klare, The Haunting Memories of War: A Memoir of Father and Son“St. Augustine is not only the oldest continuously-occupied European settlement on the American continent, it is also perhaps the most haunted city in the United States. Seemingly every spot in this city has some ghostly hidden history, right below the surface. Just by strolling through the historic streets you can hear the whispers of the long-dead.”
James Caskey, St. Augustine Ghosts: Hauntings in the Ancient City“Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living. You said I killed you--haunt me then. The murdered do haunt their murderers. I believe--I know that ghosts have wandered the earth. Be with me always--take any form--drive me mad. Only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! It is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul!”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights“The splendor of that moment, its transcendent glory and aliveness, haunted him. He could thrust it aside by day, but it poisoned his dreams by night, calling to him and pleading with him to unlock the chains he'd bound about it.”
David Weber, Oath of Swords“Looked at again and again half consciously by a mind thinking of something else, any object mixes itself so profoundly with the stuff of thought that it loses its actual form and recomposes itself a little differently in an ideal shape which haunts the brain when we least expect it.”
Virginia Woolf, Street Haunting
