Paranormal Petersburg, Virginia, and the Tri-Cities Area by Pamela K. Kinney

There are 58 color images of the different locations, great history of everyone, and the paranormal that can be associated with them. I really like ghost hunters/investigations and I jumped at the opportunity to review this book. There is also some folk lore added in to make the book even better. Then we hop into the different locations with beautiful color photos, events that have happened in the past, and different occurrences in the present. Pamela starts out with the different equipment that is used on the investigations. This book is about hauntings and other events around Petersburg, VA. She is a member of both Virginia Writers Club and Horror Writers Association. Along with writing, Pamela has acted on stage and film and investigates the paranormal for episodes of Paranormal World Seekers for AVA Productions. Pamela and her husband live with one crazy black cat (who thinks she should take precedence over her mistress’s writing most days). She had a horror short story in latest issue of Sirens Call Ezine and has an article included in Horror Addicts Guide to Life 2 just released end of April 2022. She has six nonfiction ghost books, five published by Schiffer Publishing, and the sixth by Anubis Press, and has a nonfiction book, Werewolves, Dogmen, and Other Shapeshifters Stalking America that released April 26, 2022, from Dreampunk Press, plus a short story to be included in Dreampunk Press’ Halloween horror anthology, Blame It on the Pumpkin, coming October 2022.

Her horror poem, “Dementia,” that was published in HWA Poetry Showcase Vol VII in 2020, got her name mentioned as one of five whose poems the editor liked in Best Horror of the Year, Volume 13 released in 2021. She has horror, fantasy, and science fiction stories published in various anthologies and magazines, plus an urban fantasy novel, a science fiction novella published too. Her horror short story, “Bottled Spirits,” was runner-up for the 2013 WSFA Small Press Award and is considered one of the seven best genre short fiction for that year. Her third ghost book, Virginia’s Haunted Historic Triangle: Williamsburg, Yorktown, Jamestown, and Other Haunted Locations, reached a second printing and is now a 2nd edition with extra new stories and ten new ghostly images added. Three of her nonfiction ghost books garnered Library of Virginia nominations.

science fiction, poetry, along with nonfiction ghost books ever since. Kinney gave up long ago trying not to listen to the voices in her head and has written award-winning, bestselling horror, fantasy.
