Some of these stores are true. Others, however, are not.
Deciding truth from fiction is up to you.
A collection of paranormal mysteries that will keep you up long into the night.

Canyon County, Oregon is a place unlike any other. For as long as people have lived amongst the creek beds, tree-covered hills and deep shadowy hollers they have encountered strange phenomenon.

The Book Of Witness is a treasure trove containing thirteen peculiar paranormal mystery stories. This book will introduce you to just a few Canyon County residents touched by its cold finger.

A God-fearing Christian with wild hallucinations.
An unrepentant conman who got into business with a frightening shape shifter.
The wounded Vietnam veteran who watched his friends mercifully released from their mortal pain.
A rural mail carrier who got a little too curious.

Though all of these people come from different eras and walks of life, they have one thing in common. Their lives have been touched by unexplainable encounters with the paranormal.

And they want to tell you about it.

What is out there? Nobody knows for sure.

According to legend, it is an evil as old as the mountains.


*My Review* 

This is a quick and easy read. The short stories are very short, but have everything a story needs to make it feel "complete".
I loved how this book brings a bunch of short stories together through location. All the characters experience a different type of phenomenon, but all in Canyon County. Some had a small encounter with the unexplained, while others were much more involved. It reminded me of the Twilight Zone.
