Ghosts, spirits, spectres, spooks, apparitions, ghouls, banshees, Quinkans, feather-foots, poltergeists and doppelgangers. They come with a host of different names. But if you ever actually meet one, what you call it will be the last thing on your mind.
Celebrated children's author John Heffernan has compiled ghost stories from across Australia for this sometimes scary,
sometimes funny, but always mysterious new title. With spooky tales from the city and the bush, from olden times to present day - all drawn from actual accounts - this new collection looks at haunted houses, spectral ships, eerie islands, ghastly gaols, and all manner of ghosts!
'Haunted Australia' is perfect for young readers who love to be terrified!

The book Haunted Australia is the best non fiction book I have ever read. I only wanted to read it because I love ghosts and I am not afraid of anything. Three of my friends read this book and stopped at half way and couldn't continue but I read the whole book no stopping without getting goosebumps. It's scary but not enough to scare me. Anyway you have to get this book and read it, trust me you'll love it.
