THE SHADOWS WITHIN
David Raby - Author & Paranormal Investigator
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Storyteller at Heart

Lost in the passage of time are stories that are begging to be told. Within the shadows are memories of life from generations past. Stories of joy, of sorrow, of incredible feats and agonizing defeats. Sometimes a historical building can provide that glimpse of those memories.
​
I’ve always been passionate about storytelling and love discovering the stories of people that I have never met. It gives me tremendous pleasure to bring those stories that were hiding in the shadows into the light.

WALKING AMONGST THE SHADOWS: HOUGHTON MANSION
Have you ever wondered what it's like to spend a night in a haunted mansion? I certainly did—and one unforgettable experience completely changed the course of my life.
This is the true account of my time at Houghton Mansion in North Adams, Massachusetts. I invite you to join me on a deeply personal journey filled with exhilarating highs and heart-wrenching lows.
​
The mansion called to me repeatedly—I believed it needed my help, only to discover that I was the one who required the guidance of the spirits within. I look back fondly on the laughter, the mysterious phenomena, the heartbreak, and all the ways this historic place and its inhabitants transformed me.
