We are Providence: tales of horror from the Ocean State
(Book)
"Come. Take our hands. The twilight is dimming, but the moon is bright enough to see by, and it's the perfect night to go for a walk. We'll stroll through a cemetery in Exeter to where police officers are dispatched every Halloween and where a one-hundred-fifty-year-old vampire-girl is said to still roam. We'll wander the wharfs in Jamestown, but mind your footing; the sea is home to all manner of creatures just waiting to break the surface after a thousand-year sleep. And keep an eye on the Romanesque Revival windows of the mansions along Newport's Cliff Walk; you might catch a glimpse of a silhouette with no earthly reason for being there. In Providence, we'll stalk the shadowy streets along with the ghosts of transcendentalist poets and jilted lovers, but don't be surprised to discover that the monsters of Lovecraft's fiction are not, in fact, the product of his imagination. The capital city has secrets and those secrets have tentacles. And teeth. Welcome to Rhode Island, home of the weird, the hometown horror, the haunted, the hunted. Home of the Gothic and of horror with history. We promise there's something here for everyone, whether visiting or already one with the region's countless legends. Rhode Island is the smallest state but the biggest house of horrors... And the door is open."--
