    Such was the case in the Fall of 1993, when Linda McLaughlin and her innocent six-year-old daughter Kelly passed by Easton Connecticut's Union Cemetery. Kelly didn’t even know such spirits existed when an apparition materialized and tapped into her consciousness. Nothing could have prepared her or her family for the suffocating terror that they would soon experience when it followed them home. The merciless spirit didn't stop with Kelly. It quickly targeted each and every family member, their pets, and their friends when they were alone and most vulnerable. Then, it targeted the alpha of the family, the wealthy, real estate broker father, who was a natural skeptic and the last person to believe in ghosts. In this re-creation of real the most terrifying case the author had ever experienced, a Connecticut Family is plagued by an evil-natured human spirit and by a group of inhuman, diabolical spirits who infest their home and oppress the family. Will these evil spirits continue to haunt them or will the family find help in ridding them of this terror from beyond the grave? The book explains, in detail, the process of investigating a ‘haunted house’ and what can be done about it. It explains the dangers involved with the negative occult and how dabbling in it can summon darkness and ruin into our lives. Dark Siege is a 467 page recreation of the most terrifying case McLeod has ever investigated.

Both books in the Dark Siege Series are required reading for Bishop James Long's Demonology Course.
