On July 25 at 6 p.m. Jeff Belanger will offer a multimedia lecture on his findings about things that go bump in the night at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library.

For the last 15 years, he’s searched the world for monsters, ghosts, and other paranormal legends that have seeped into our culture, folklore, religion and even our history books.

Belanger is a paranormal researcher, investigator, and is the author of more than a dozen books on the paranormal. He’s also the series writer/researcher for the "Ghost Adventures" show on the Travel Channel and founder of Ghostvillage.com.

Belanger’s talk will include images, audio clips and video from some of the world’s most infamous haunts plus a question and answer session for the audience. He will also have autographed books available for purchase.

“I can’t wait to haunt the Mattapoisett Public library,” Jeff Belanger said. “We’ll dim the lights, talk about the ghost experience and see the evidence and theories regarding the paranormal. I’ve spoken on the topic of the supernatural all over the country—there’s nothing like sharing in this discussion in person.”
