- Anima rising [text (large print)] : a novel / by Moore, Christopher,1957-author.;
"A hilariously deranged tale of a mad scientist, a famous painter, and an undead woman's electrifying journey of self-discovery. Vienna, 1911. Gustav Klimt, the most famous painter in the Austrian Empire, spots a woman's nude body in the Danube canal. He knows he should summon a policeman, but he can't resist stopping to make a sketch first. And as he draws, the woman coughs. She's alive! Back at his studio, Klimt and his model-turned-muse Wally tend to the formerly drowned girl. She's nearly feral and doesn't remember who she is, or how she came to be floating in the canal. Klimt names her Judith, after one of his most famous paintings, and resolves to help her find her memory. With a little help from Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, Judith recalls being stranded in the arctic one hundred years ago, locked in a crate by a man named Victor Frankenstein, and visiting the Underworld. So how did she get here? And why are so many people chasing her, including Geoff, the giant croissant-eating devil dog of the North?"--Back cover.- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Large print books.; Novels.; Klimt, Gustav, 1862-1918; Drowning; Painters; Psychologists; Scientists; Young women;

- Canada's most haunted [videorecording] : paranormal encounters in the Great White North / by World Wide Multi Media (Firm);
Canada has a rich tradition of frightening paranormal activity from one end of the country to the other. Beginning with British Columbia, you will find White Rock Players Club, a 100 year old playhouse that has more than its share of ghostly characters. The Four-Mile House, an upscale restaurant that was once a bordello, contains entities in search of mischief and vengeance. At the Beban House, a mysterious ghost child can be found slamming doors, hurling objects and frightening visitors. And don't forget Andrade House, where an eccentric artist shares his studio with the ghost of a young woman. Moving on to Ontario, we find the Bytown Museum at the gateway to the Rideau Canal, which may also be a gateway to the paranormal; as well as Sax's Fish and Chips which is home to as many as 16 spirits. The Halifax Club in Nova Scotia is a private gentlemen's club known for its elite membership, and the ghosts of some of these men still call it home. Canadian ghosts are also fond of the water. In St. John, New Brunswick the frigate Genii was lost with all hands - but one sailor lingers on in spirit, haunting both the beach where his lifeless body washed ashore and the nearby mansion where he was laid out for burial. In Quebec a thirty-foot lake monster stalks the peaceful waters of Lake Memphremagog. In British Columbia, a decommissioned freighter known as the Queen Mary is haunted by a foul tempered ghost with an appetite for destruction. Prepare for an exciting thrill ride to some of Canada's most haunted locations.E.DVD.- Subjects: Documentary films.; Ghosts.; Haunted places.;
