Author Biography Janice Oberding is a Nevada-based writer who enjoys traveling and researching history, true crime, and the paranormal. She is one of only a few people who have spent an entire night at Alcatraz—aside from those who were incarcerated there. She worked as consultant and historian for the Alcatraz episode of SyFys Ghost Hunters (with Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson). She has also worked with the History Channel, LivingTV, and the Travel Channel, and has appeared in episodes of Dead Famous for Two Four productions, Travel Channels Haunted Hotels, Ghost Adventures, and Foxs Scariest Places on Earth. Janice has previously published spooky books with Stackpole, Arcadia/History Press, Pelican Publishing, and Fonthill Publishing. When shes not writing, she teaches an annual ghosthunting 101 class for Truckee Meadows Community Colleges Paranormal Series. She also speaks at local events and paranormal conferences. Although she has had inexplicable things occur during her research, Janice remains a skeptic. You can find her online at facebook.com/JaniceOberding and Twitter, @JaniceOberding (1,460 followers).
