Wisconsin's Most Haunted is based off of some of the most haunted places in Wisconsin and tells stories of the location. It covers the history about the haunted location and takes you inside with a professional paranormal team the Fox Valley Ghost Hunters and you will listen to first hand accounts from the investigators some of which were scratched and touched by things unseen in the dark. Some of the stories deal with ghost hunters on a certain location where they were possessed or taken over by something very dark. One story of the founder of the team talks about his girlfriend who passed away at a young age due to cancer but the investigator still communicates with her on another dimension. All the stories and investigations take place in Wisconsin and give bios of the team and show what equipment they use on the investigation as well. This book covers some very well know spots like Summerwind in Land O'Lakes, Wisconsin and the Berlin Tannery as well as a haunted schoolhouse in Wisconsin Rapids. This book was also written by Enid Cleaves a well known Author from Northern Wisconsin who has sold many other books about Gangsters in Northern Wisconsin as well as some cookbooks.
In Achieves of a Ghost Hunter Volume 2, Craig Nehring who is the founder of Fox Valley Ghost Hunters, and lead investigator Melissa Clevenger takes you to some of the most haunted locations throughout Wisconsin and other states in which the team has investigated. Embark on the investigations of the team from well-known haunted places such as the Sallie House in Atchison, Kansas; Randolph County Asylum in Winchester, Indiana; Mineral Springs Hotel in Alton, Illinois; and Summerwind in Land O' Lakes, Wisconsin. Also included in the book are chilling stories of haunted locations that are not as familiar, such as, Groppi's in Bay View, Wisconsin or The Preston Residence in Marquette, Kansas. Hear the stories from The Sheboygan Insane Asylum, which had never been investigated before, so when the Fox Valley Ghost Hunters began investigating, the spirits wanted to be finally heard. From the Chapel, a voice says, "That One," right as Craig is scratched by an unseen force. Disembodied voices, slamming doors and shadow people are only the beginning of what the team has experienced at the Asylum. The Barclay Cemetery is a beautiful, peaceful cemetery where only children are buried. The team has visited this cemetery on many occasions in the daylight. A late-night drive to the cemetery however offered a whole different experience. Something lurked in the trees across the street watching the teams every move. As fear forced them to leave, they soon found out, that whatever was there followed them back to the hotel. Experience the investigations of the Fox Valley Ghost Hunters as they journey inside these haunted places and show you what it is like to be a ghost hunter. Feel what they felt from fear to excitement, and some may receive answers that they have been seeking for many years.

"In our last two books Wisconsin's Most Haunted, Vol I & II, we investigated haunted places in Wisconsin. Now we take you out of state to investigate some of the very well-known haunted places like Villisca Axe Murder House, and the Most haunted place on the East Coast called St. Albans Sanatorium. We take you on an inside look with my team, Fox Valley Ghost Hunters and hear from various investigators about their experiences while investigating these haunted locations. We also show you that there is more to investigating, like the little mishaps along the way and what it's like to be a real ghost hunter. From the bottom of the Body Chute, in Waverly Hills we hear a girl's voice say, "Oh God! Oh God!" Something is standing right next to her our investigator, something she could not see. Would she stand her ground or run away. I am not afraid of the dark, I am not afraid of what's in the dark."--Back cover

Wisconsin is a land rich with stories. It was the "mother of all circuses," a place of buried treasure and home to eerie ghosts and monsters. Native American legends, tall tales told at lumberjack camps and taverns, ghostlore and modern urban legends all form the wonderful mythology of the Dairy State. Many know of Rhinelander's famous Hodag, the Beast of Bray Road in Elkhorn, Milwaukee's haunted Pfister Hotel and the Ridgeway Ghost. But few have heard obscure tales like the Christmas Tree Ghost Ship of Two Rivers, the Goatman of Richfield's Hogsback Road and the legend of the Witch's Tower of Whitewater. Author Tea Krulos, an expert in all things strange and unusual, digs up Wisconsin favorites and arcane lore.
