This is a travelogue for those interested in ghostly establishments, historical figures, and queer history. I quickly made travel plans for at least five of these places, after reading this book. Mainly hotels and bars in the US and the UK are mentioned. Tons of places in California, England, and Provincetown are. Content warning for this book: a -lot- of people were killed in hate crimes, and while the descriptions could have been easily more graphic, it's still upsetting to read. The book does get repetitive in some ways, but I expected it. All the ghosts and establishments are described in such a way that sympathy comes easy, and the book isn't creepy at all. In a 'blink and you miss it' paragraph, the author describes Satanism factually, kindly, and without judgment. That made a good impression on me. I thought the book was put together well and well-researched. I'm glad it was written and I got to read it.. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Queer Hauntings: True Tales of Gay and Lesbian Ghosts is a collection of eerie locales worldwide with a queer bent, combining historical fact and unearthly encounters from across the United States, as well as around the globe. From haunted bars in New Orleans to a haunted theater in London, this guide encompasses the other side of the supernatural. The stories range from the serious, from brutal murders in rural Georgia, to the light-hearted, including the male spirit who enjoys unzipping men's trousers at a British pub. Ghosts of legendary celebrities intermingle with ordinary individuals. Along with these queer spirits are many businesses, either gay-owned or catering to a gay/lesbian clientele, experiencing hauntings. Clubs and bars hide more than shy young lovers in their darkened corners. Countless bed and breakfasts have otherworldly guests staying the night. Behind the shadows and doors of societal homophobia hide find pink phantoms and lavender apparitions in cities and towns spread across the globe. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
