In summation...
It is important to consider, though, that without the overdone Hollywood contribution to ghost stories and horrific tales, that the history could likely fall through the wayside, and not be as important. While this is saddening for history buffs to consider, the media hype of the paranormal is an important aspect of its continuing popularity, and the presence of opportunity for small groups such as Dark Realm Research or Daniel Barefoot novels to exist. Therefore, it could also easily be argued that the Hollywood aspect that utilizes the topographical contributions and echo mist of areas to produce cinematic ghostly glories with is the most prevalent aspect of a ghost story as well.
Regardless of the true origin, belief or truth of a ghost story, there are undoubtedly three major components necessary: a vibrant history, an interesting presence in the topography, and enough interest to market a related product to maintain interest for ghost stories to live on. While in the age of Hollywood, paranormal frights sell, ghost stories are in their heyday, and they lack any signs of stopping. It is important to realize that any location could contain fetters or spectral energy that could take form from your fear if you only just believe. The research necessary to draft and write this paper resulted in many a night of unending interest as well as many a night of having to stop because the stories were too real. Despite any paranormal experience or lack thereof, an interest exists, all one has to do is explore it. Are you brave enough?
