The true spirit of Christmas can have a dark side.
- That's what author Sylvia Shults found when researching her latest book, "The Spirits of Christmas: The Dark Side of the Holidays."
- Shults is a central Illinois author who is well known for her books about the paranormal.
- Her new work is a collection of stories that shows that there's more than just Santa that can come down a chimney.
- The stories are culled from history and all around the world, dealing with Greek demons you don't want at your door, wistful Appalachian ghost stories, and how the ghost of a plucked chicken freaked out a WWII era soldier.
- Her publisher is White Chapel Productions and the book is now available at Amazon and other booksellers.
