I've been perusing your site for a while now after discovering it this year, and I believe I have the answer to a "Name That Trauma" from May 7, 2009. PhanWolf asked about a book with a haunted house on the cover and thought it might have been called "The House that Came to Life." I had that same book and avoided the cover as well when I was a kid. It's called "The Ghost That Came Alive" by Vic Crume. Here's a link to it on Amazon.
Anyway, maybe PhanWolf is still holding out hope for an answer…five years later!
UNK SEZ: Thanks Jeff! We'll try to contact Phanwolf! By the way, I noticed something strange while putting together your post. Something about the author's name and the title of his previous book rang a bell. Last week I picked up a book at the thrift store and it's currently propped up by my desk starring me in the face, "The Mystery in Dracula's Castle" by Vic Crume!
Vic Crume also contributed to the Scholastic Book Services "The Haunted House and Other Spooky Poems and Tales"
Hey hey. Wow! Good to see people tackling old "Unsolved Mysteries" here. I still search around for a couple that bugged me from a couple of years ago….
I literally jumped out of my chair shouting "that's it! That's it!" You have no idea how long I've wondered about this book, Jeff, thanks a ton!
That's a crazy coincidence Unk! It's a small scary world after all 🙂
Brother Bill,
Thanks for that cool link!
Chuckles,
This gives me hope for all those unsolved NTT's out there!
PhanWolf,
I'm so glad you saw this! I was trying to find your email yesterday and somehow (gmail always confuses me) couldn't. I was about to get aunt John on the case.
A five year old NTT solved. That is the coolest thing ever! 🙂
Haha well I happened to be browsing the site today (work hours make me more of a lurker now) and I caught this and it made my week! Heck, it made my year! I seriously had given up hope on this being solved. Kindertrauma for the epic win! 🙂
I love that you have EROTICA. My first CD!
