For years Rita has enjoyed reading about ancient mythology and has delved into ancient writings from Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Nordic, Celtic, Mayan, Aztec, and Phoenician scholars.  After discovering an ancient story of what she believes is true history, in the same fashion as Mr. Heinrich Schliemann did when asserting that Troy had been a real place, she has written several books for the adult audience regarding an ancient family that changed the world.  This family has been written about by these ancient scholars and they are the basis of all Gods and Goddesses in almost all mythologies around the world.  Rita Jean has termed this theory, her “Mythological Unification Theory.”





Children's Books/Young Adult to Adult Books (Fiction)

          The Library Kids is a middle grade (ages 8 to 12 and up) book series about a group of children who find a secret, magical library inside the Cave of the Blue Mounds that has the entire history and knowledge of the Earth in the past, present and future. The children can go back in time and meet famous people from the past and travel to any part around the world. However, the children will end up with a mission at the end of the first book. Their mission will be that they must battle the seven Enemies of the Library and defeat the Dark Master that the Enemies answer to. To do this, they must travel around the world to ancient sites and collect a set of twelve crystals that when put together will make a prison for the Dark Master. The children will travel to ancient sites in America, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Ireland, Greece, Mali, Egypt, India, Tibet, and Australia throughout the seven book series. There will be some American history as well as ancient mythology, folklore, and legend in each book. This series is sure to captivate the middle grade audience as well as adults.

Haunting - Lehmann Mansion

Image
The Lehmann Mansion (Lake Villa) was built by Edward Lehmann in the late 1800s.  The Lehmanns ran a successful store, but the stress of running the businesses made Mr. Lehmann have a nervous breakdown.  He was committed to an asylum.  His wife managed the home and eventually the Village of Lake Villa acquired it and uses it to rent out for weddings.  Next to the home are abandoned train cars and cooking ovens and an abandoned shed. The place is said to be haunted and full body apparitions are said to be seen inside the mansion.  Again this place was visited while on a tour provided by Ursula Bielski. http://www.weddingvenuelakevillail.com/

Haunted Mineola Hotel

Image
The Mineola Hotel (Fox Lake) was built in 1888.  The hotel was a reported gangster hide out with visits from Al Capone.  It is now condemned and the current owner is looking for a buyer to renovate the place. It is said to be haunted.  I visited the place while on a haunted tour provided by Ursula Bielski.  She used a Ghost box and did receive some verbal answers via it when asking questions. The most interesting ghost response was when I was asking about the gangster history.  A male voice came through and said, "Get going, buddy." Here are some pictures from the old hotel:

Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum

Without giving too much away, I'll tell you a little bit about my visit to Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum.  The museum is said to have 30 rooms.  The tour (which includes a tour guide) is about 1 hour and 15 minutes.  The haunted basement where occult rituals have taken place is off limits.  The rooms are very small.  I went at night for one of the last tours.  The tour included about six people and a tour guide.  Most of the tour guides were wearing crosses for protection.  I suppose I fit right in with my purse and its Celtic cross. You are not allowed to take pictures inside the tour but you are allowed to take pictures outside and in the lobby.  I took a couple but they were very dark. The lobby had the "old building smell" with some sort of herbal aroma that smelled like possibly evergreen or similar aroma.  If you go on this tour, I will warn you to be prepared for surprises and that is all I will say. The tour began by taking us to
