Coggers: A Transformation
A Tale of a Haunted Life
My name is Norman Shaw. I grew up in a haunted house, next to haunted woods, next to a haunted reform school. Not only did the woods scare my friends and I, but it helped lead to my transformation. I invite you to walk this journey with me.
I am not here trying to convince you that the spirit world exists, you either believe or you dont. You have your truths which are based on your life experiences and deductions from them, this book, these EVPs are my truth. I ask instead, that you suspend disbelief and join me in looking at an amazing and wonderful world.
Coggers woods have always been there, the earliest maps show a rough swamp with the earliest roads completely avoiding it. It resisted permanent development until the early 2000’s.
The local history of the area is varied. Maps from as early as the 1750’s show that the area known as Coggers was always there and the earliest roads formed a boundry that remained in place till the present day.
The land itself, held once by some of the original settlers of the area, was sold off bit by bit till eventually it was bought by Patrick Cogger.
He had a gravel pit across from it and opened up a pit in the woods as well.
This is how it became named.

Coggers Book
Coggers:
A tale from a haunted life.
This is a story about the most haunted place in North America, but its not your typical, “here is a haunted house” type tale. Its an intensely personal story of one mans direct experiences with the spirit world. Its more than that, there are over 20 EVPs ( Electronic Voice Phenomena ) included alongside the book, these recordings of ghosts, in some cases confirm, in others deny and in all teach us of the spirit world and whats to come. Its also a story about my own change, from cynical to kind, from bitter to sweet, my own transformation and what I’ve learned from 30+ years of dealing with the spirit world. Most of all, its a tale about Coggers.
