This is one of my favorite true-haunting books to read.
And it is just that: truly haunting. After reading it,
you will never look at life (or death) the same. This
family went through horrific experiences in their time
at the house on Poppet’s Way.
Ben and Jean Williams bought land in the Newport
Subdivision outside of Houston Texas to build their
dream home. What they didn’t expect was that it would
cost them their family and their happiness. Soon after
moving into their ‘dream home’ odd things started
happening; unsettling things. They couldn’t keep plants
alive, and they couldn’t keep their pets from dying
horrific, unheard-of deaths (such as kittens being born
inside out). But not only did it affect their
horticulture and animals, it affected family members.
About five of their family members ended up dying from
being associated with the house. Their three daughter’s
lives were ruined and in the case of one daughter,
tragically ended. Not only were the Williams’ affected,
but other neighbors on their street had horrible
experiences as well. These are touched on in the book,
and also on the television show “Unsolved Mysteries”
where the story of the Haunted Newport Subdivision is
investigated.
It was found out that the houses were built over a
graveyard for African Americans who were slaves years
ago and descendants of slaves. These poor, hardworking
people couldn’t even get a break in death. The
unsuspecting residents of Poppet’s Way were horrified
when they discovered the bodies under their lawns, and
they felt terrible. All sides felt violated. The spirits
really wanted to torment the new invaders, and all the
terrible, and true, details are told in this enthralling
book.
