Reseña del libro "Plugged into Fear: The Shocking Teror (en Inglés)"
Some people thrive in the hustle and bustle of a big city like Boston, and others don't. Of those that don't, some find a way to thrive and survive, and others can't. Some will put up with it as a means to an end, and others will find a solution. Eddie and Taylor Byrne were the all American family albeit 1st generation Americans of Irish descent. Both of their families grew up in the predominantly Irish "Southie" neighborhood. Now, married with two children, Kenneth and Lorna and an Irish setter named Guinness, they feel that it is time to leave the old behind and head out to unchartered waters. They wanted to leave the hustle, bustle and noise of the city and settle in a quiet and peaceful place to bring up their children. Eddie is a writer. This means that he can move anywhere as long as there is electricity for his computer and internet service for his printer. Taylor owned her own website development firm with 10 employees who telecommute. Her employees were spread out over the country. She asked them about the pros and cons of their home area, and finally settled to move down south to Gettysburg PA. It was rich in history, and almost half way from Boston and half way from DC where other family was. When they went down and scouted for homes, they could not believe what their money could buy. They didn't mind a fixer upper, but wanted one they could at live in while the work was being done. They found one. At the top of Culp Hill, sat the Henry Culp Farm. It was built in the 1800's and was a survivor of the bloody Civil War battle at Gettysburg. It was still a fixer upper, but able to be lived in. At the price that they were offered, The Byrne's could not resist. They put in their offer and it was accepted. At the final inspection and closing, they were made aware of the electrical system not being up to code. It was old knob and tube connectors with glass fuses. These would have to be changed to a 21st century system before they could turn any utilities on. The electrician was hired and gave them a time line of about a month before it would be livable. They went back to Boston and prepared to move. They forgot one piece of research. This was, that Gettysburg, quite possibly the most haunted battlefield in the world. Culp Hill was right smack dab in the middle of it. They had no worries though, the house would be blessed and therefor protected. There was no way for the spirits of a bygone era to come in. Or was there?
