On this episode we welcome fellow podcaster and paranormal author Al Cooley. We are chatting with Al about his new autobiographcical book, "Spencer's Ghosts: The Guardian, in which he recalls spending his teenage years from 12-16 in a haunted house in Ohio. Al shares some of his experiences from the book and we chat about other experiences he has had throughout his life. 

"From Book 1: In the basement of the house that Lee and his family just moved into, a hand grabs the back of Lee's calf. This mysterious hand keeps Lee from tumbling off a cement block that he is standing on while changing a burned-out light bulb. Earlier that day, Lee noticed a young girl peering out the second-floor window. A short time later, the same Ghost Girl says hello to Lee in his bedroom. He tries to locate the mystery girl, but she's nowhere to be found. Over the next four years, Lee and his friends hop a train to New York where they encounter Boxcar Billy Baxter. Is Boxcar real or a ghost? You will come to know and love Seven, a spunky and foul-mouth seventh grader. You will learn why Lee's seventh-grade teacher, Miss Finch, refuses to call Lee by his first name. Grandma Pearl also plays a vital role in Lee Spencer's life. She is full of ancient remedies and superstitions.
Lee and his friends beat death on more than one occasion, while others close to Lee aren't so lucky. Lee Spencer finds out what the saying 'They Come in Threes' means. Everyone wants to know what's in the mysterious envelope left inside Lee's guitar case. Does Lee open the envelope or not? No twelve-year-old boy should have to live through what Lee Spencer goes through. Have we heard the last from Alice?
Based on a true story, "Spencer's Ghosts" has its readers believing the unbelievable!"
