Haunted Places


Some of the scariest, strangest, and interesting cases of haunted houses, paranormal and supernatural places, and ghost stories in the world!
Do you know what lies behind every door? There are certain buildings which can be unsettling, disturbing, and downright terrifying. Even in seemingly normal homes, the strange and mysterious can help to create a sense of unease and ill-feeling. But there are certain buildings which scream strangeness from every surface. A coldness, an eerie atmosphere, or even the half caught sight of something moving in the corner of your vision. Some homes breathe paranormal activity and can leave you scared before you've even stepped over the threshold.
In this book, we will look at some of the world's most haunted homes, buildings, and places. They are scattered across the world, proving that the unexplained and the terrifying can cross borders and is not restricted to one particular location or culture. We will look at homes, hospitals, boats, and government buildings, all of which contain a history of dark acts. There's nothing to say what might cause a place to become haunted, but there are certain similarities that we can trace from location to location.
Murder, slaughter, torture, and all other forms of gruesome acts serve to leave an imprint. When you walk into these rooms, you can sense the evil deeds that took place. The hairs of on the back of your neck might prickle, the skin on your arms crawl, as you step onto the spot where someone was butchered hundreds of years ago. Often, these events are unexplainable. But in this book, we will attempt to gather the stories together and illustrate the reality of the world's most haunted places.

Freedom for a Bride


When Nathaniel Russell received the wonderful news that the bride he'd written off for would be arriving in New Hope, Montana, it was the happiest he'd felt since arriving to settle his claim. And when the strikingly beautiful but somewhat exotic-looking Katia stepped off the train, his heart leapt at the fulfillment of their months of exchanging letters.
But Katia carries secrets that no one in the town expected, secrets that run deep enough to keep them apart forever.

Another great book from Amelia Rose.  Available at audible.com

The Illuminati


The Illuminati dominates any discussion of secret societies. Search the web, spark up a conversation, or search through a library shelf, and soon enough you will encounter their name. They have become an ancient order and a modern sensation at the same time. At once a ubiquitous herald of the new world order and the people who market pop albums, trying to discern the truth about the organization can get lost amid the hail of noise that inevitably follows any mention of their name. In this book we hope to do something different: separate fact from fiction and confront the truth about the Illuminati.
To achieve this we have uncovered 15 of the most frequently asked questions and accusations that people have relating to the Illuminati. By taking a discerning, informed look at each of these ideas in detail, we will be able to reach the truth that so many people seek but that can be so hard to find. If you have ever wanted a handy guide to cutting through the mess of information that you find online, then this guide will be perfect for you.
Throughout the course of this book, we will look into the origins of the Illuminati, their involvement with the Freemasons, accusations of Satanism, the idea that they caused the French Revolution, their involvement with ancient and celebrity cultures, and their appearance on the dollar bill of the United States of America. If you have ever wanted to know the truth about the Illuminati in a simple, easy-to-understand guide, this book is exactly what you need.
Do they still influence our lives?

The Priory of Sion


Hoax, conspiracy, or secret society? That is the range of responses you might hear when raising the idea of the Priory of Sion.
Ostensibly a clandestine order designed to disguise the truth about the children of Jesus Christ, the group have been labeled as either an elaborate concoction or the most powerful secret society in the world. Are they real? What are they hiding? Where did they come from? What impact can they have on the world around us? These are the questions this book will hope to answer.
At the heart of the story of the Priory of Sion is the somewhat heretical notion that Jesus Christ - the supposed son of God - fathered children. Not only that, but that his bloodline survives to this day. If true, the idea has a huge impact on the very existence of Christianity, the world's most popular religion. If the Priory - as is believed - are guarding the truth about such a matter, they then potentially control some of the most powerful information in the world. Think of it like an ideological atomic bomb, ticking away and ready to explode through the consciousness of the world.
Not only that, but the men allegedly chosen to guard these secrets rank as some of the greatest thinkers in human history. Isaac Newton, Nicholas Flamel, and Leonardo da Vinci have all been implicated in the order, though their involvement is debated. In fact, the entire existence of the order has been argued. Some suggest that, rather than a secret society, the Priory is, in fact, an elaborate hoax. Others claim that these accusations are merely an attempt to disguise the truth. But what do we know for certain? Who exactly are the Priory of Sion? Listen to find out!

Fascinating stuff.

Mail Order Bride Brianna


Sweet, clean historical cowboy romance....
When Brianna Darcy left Ireland to marry a stranger, she expected her life to change for the better. But one surprise after another has left her questioning everything she thought she knew.
For Cassidy Campbell, finding a sweet wife to settle down with is the only thing missing from his life. He owns his claim, he's raised his livestock, and he's made a name for himself in Montana. All he needs now is Brianna.
But she brings a secret with her that can threaten their happiness, and their freedom. Can Cassidy overlook what he believes to accept what's right in front of him?

Love is in the air:)

Mail Order Bride Kathleen


Kathleen Grady has faced hardship - and overcome it - at nearly every turn. Whether it's the death of her betrothed at sea or the fight with her tyrannical brother for what's rightfully hers, she has struggled for so long that can't remember what peace in her soul even feels like.
But when the chance to become the wife of a stranger, a homesteader in a new world called Montana, presents itself, Kathleen must decide if leaving Ireland for America will give her the escape she desperately needs, or will only throw her into even more danger?
Very romantic.  Super clean, super fun.

Bargain for a Bride


When Lady Moira Brennan leaves her home at Brennan Castle for the wilds of her own homestead claim in the Montana territory, she had no idea that a husband awaited her. Sold into marriage by her uncle, she arrives to find a bleak landscape of scarce farmers, all desperately trying to scratch out a living on their claims.
Pryor MacAteer came to Montana himself only three years ago, and his farm has prospered. All that he needs to make it complete is a wife and family, one whose passage he paid, and whose name is on the marriage contract.
Will Moira realize her dream of owning her own land and uncover the truth behind a marriage contract with her name on it?
This is fun.  You will really like all the books in this series if you are a romantic at heart.

Mail Order Bride Margaret



Hi Everybody,

This is the first book in a three book series I am doing for the author.  It is a terrific tale of the old west and a young Irish couple that overcome great odds to fall desperately in love.  You will like it.  The audiobook is available now at audible.com

Declan O'Bryan left Ireland to seek his fortune in the New World, but the journey was long for a man without a penny to his name. It took years of back-breaking work as a sailor and a journeyman for him to finally reach Montana, and to have enough money to his name to earn the title of proud homesteader. There's only one thing missing from his life now, and unlike the boys in town, he's not convinced a man should find a wife in a catalog, the same way he buys a plow. 
But for Margaret McGreggor, answering an advertisement for a wife is the only way she can get out of her sister's cramped apartment and start a new life for herself. She came to America for adventure and opportunity, and marrying a stranger just might provide her with both. 

Tridea's Children

Throughout history, crystals scattered across Tridea have been used to aid in the use of good and evil. When the crystals turn dark, an evil force of shadow soldiers and humans set out across Tridea.

But when they find an unexpected prisoner and a secret about themselves, a power is awakened deep inside. Learning who they truly are is easy, but knowing what the darkness holds for them is another thing.

Skull and Bones


Hi Everyone,

This is a book of fact, not fiction, about a secret society founded at Yale University that has and will dictate the course of history.  Skull and Bones is available now at audible.com.

Skulls and Bones, a secret society that could easily be the most powerful in America


Nobody likes the idea that there are hugely influential powers operating behind closed doors. For centuries, there have been stories about secret societies that control everything we do and dominate the highest echelons of politics and business. Whether it’s the Illuminati, the Masons, or the Knights Templar, it’s not uncommon for people to believe that there might be a cabal of people who conspire together for their own nefarious purposes. But while these earlier societies might be clouded in mystery and intrigue, there are modern equivalents of which we know much, much more. 
One of these mysterious societies is known simply as Skull and Bones. A clandestine group who gather at one of the world’s top universities, they are made up of some of the cleverest, brightest, and most privileged members of their generation. In addition to this, their members have gone on to be CEOs, moguls, and even Presidents. Their alumni hold some of the most important positions within society and, for the majority, their membership of this secret club is a closely guarded secret. 
Whether it’s generations of the Bush family, members of the Taft family, Rockefellers, CIA officers, Presidents, publishers, judges, lawyers, Olympians, ambassadors, congressmen, governors, senators, authors, diplomats, or musicians, there seems to be no limit on who might be its member. With their mooted involvement in thefts, rituals, and even more hidden power politics, the members of Skull and Bones are part of seemingly one of the most powerful groups in the world. In this book we will examine their history, their practices, their members, and their legacy. By the end, you should have a much clearer idea of what it means to be a member of one of Yale’s most exclusive groups: Skull and Bones.

Men Shall Dream


This is the story of St. Joseph.  The author said that it flowed from her hands onto the paper.  I believe it is truly inspired to help us understand more intimately the Life of Christ.  As the story goes Joseph lost his wife, Alizah, to the plague as did many other men in Nazareth.  Those widowers were ordered to the Temple in Jerusalem to take part in a lottery.  The winner was to be wed to one of the Temple virgins.  The story is complete with well known Christmas stories as well as all the details during the Visitation, The Annunciation, The Birth, The Shepherds, The Wisemen, all the way up to Joseph's death..  It is an unforgettable tale looking deeply into the Greatest Story Ever Told.  I loved narrating it.  I know you will enjoy listening to this fascinating account of the Holy Family.

Men Shall Dream is now available on Audible and ITunes.

Histories Most Secret Societies by Conrad Bauer, Narrated by Charles D. Baker




Mysterious and almost invisible, these secret societies changed the course of history! Secret societies have always fascinated us, we want to know why they exist, what they did and who are their members and leaders. Find out why the secret societies described in this book are worth knowing about. For as long as humans have gathered together to form societies, there has been a subset of people who have form secret groups. Away from the prying eyes of the main group, these people have formed societies, unions, guilds, leagues, and other organisations with a wide variety of purposes. While some people gather together to drink beer in private and reminisce about the past, other groups have deeper, more complicated, and more nefarious purposes. On occasions such as these, the secret societies become instantly more fascinating. For whatever reason, these groups cannot exist in the public eye. Whether this is because they are breaking the law, operating in a clandestine fashion, or because they fear retribution from other secret societies, they were often the only ones who knew. At the time, their ability to remain secret often meant the difference between life and death. Now, many years later, we can look back on these secret groups and try and lean exactly what they represented. In this book, we will look into murder, assassinations, political coups, and events which left a huge impact on the history of the world. Behind some of the most tragic events in human history, these secret societies have operated in the shadows. Their influence has been felt in every corner of the world. Secrecy is not endemic to one country or one continent. Instead, all humans have a small part of themselves which craves the secrecy afforded to these groups. But only some of us manage to bond together to form societies such as these. That's why they are remembered as the most mysterious secret societies in the world.

Here is my third production of my friend Conrad's series on Secret Societies.  They are all interesting, but the one that hits home for me is his piece on the Underground Railroad.  Very informative and enlightening.  This is a great listen for mature young people and adults.  This cover just became available on audible.com.  I hope that, after you listen, you will leave a comment.

Thank you,

Charles D. Baker

"My memoirs involve Paris, London, Blackpool. This story will take to saltcoats childrens home then to Oxford and Cambridge. I have also included the fairy folk in my story.

Charley portraying St. Paul on Mars Hill in Athens 2012.



Hello,

I thought I would celebrate a booking I received today from Our Lady of the Cheasapeake  Church in Pasadena, Maryland.  That will be on Sunday, March 6 at 8:40 AM for you early risers.  This is me on top of Mars Hill where St. Paul actually stood and proclaimed the Gospel.  A thorough explanation follows.  I, Paul is a full rendition available at audible.com.  Expand the video to full screen for fun.

Mars Hill is the Roman name for a hill in Athens, Greece, called the Hill of Ares or the Areopagus (Acts 17:1922). Ares was the Greek god of war and according to Greek mythology this hill was the place where Ares stood trial before the other gods for the murder of Poseidon’s son Alirrothios. Rising some 377 feet above the land below and not far from the Acropolis and Agora (marketplace), Mars Hill served as the meeting place for the Areopagus Court, the highest court in Greece for civil, criminal, and religious matters. Even under Roman rule in the time of the New Testament, Mars Hill remained an important meeting place where philosophy, religion, and law were discussed.

The biblical significance of Mars Hill is that it is the location of one of Paul’s most important gospel presentations at the time of his visit to Athens during his second missionary journey (Acts 17:16–34). It was where he addressed the religious idolatry of the Greeks who even had an altar to the “Unknown God.” It was this altar and their religious idolatry that Paul used as a starting point in proclaiming to them the one true God and how they could be reconciled to Him. Paul’s sermon is a classic example of a gospel presentation that begins where the listeners are and then presents the gospel message in a logical and biblical fashion. In many ways it is a classic example of apologetics in action. Paul started his message by addressing the false beliefs of those gathered there that day and then used those beliefs as a way of presenting the gospel message to them.
