A new true paranormal book, 'Haunting of Wilson Castle,' has been released by co-authors Rob Gutro and Monique Toosoon, documenting a five-hour public investigation that uncovered a century-old secret at the iconic Wilson Castle in Proctor, Vermont. The book, published on June 1, 2026, quickly achieved number one status on Amazon, marking the third installment in their 'Haunting Of' series.
Wilson Castle, an architectural masterpiece built in the mid-19th century amidst Vermont's Green Mountains, has housed several families over the years. Many former residents are believed to remain as earthbound ghosts, haunting the castle for various reasons. The book takes readers on a paranormal journey where the investigative team, including medium Lexi Duquette and The Digital Séance Experience, uncovered a hidden family secret and a 100-year-old secret tryst.
According to the authors, the investigation revealed a family secret involving a man with a darker side, a child seeking truth, and other ghosts, as the team worked to bring a happy haunted reunion. Monique Toosoon, New England's paranormal drag queen and para-technology wizard, stated, 'We had amazing communications with Elliot and Sarah's ghosts and might've even uncovered a secret castle love affair. But things took a darker turn after midnight when an ominous male presence made himself known… and let's not forget the elemental energy that stirred.'
The investigation originated from an idea by Monique Toosoon, who discussed it with Denise Davine, the owner and operator of Wilson Castle, who granted approval. Rob Gutro, a medium, pet medium, paranormal investigator, and scientist who explains the paranormal using the science of energy, communicated with all the ghosts. He remarked, 'Learning the personal emotional stories of the ghosts we encountered, and assembling the puzzle together with mediums and technology was amazing.'
Gutro distinguishes between earthbound entities (ghosts) and those who have crossed over (spirits). Monique Toosoon acts as a trigger object for paranormal activity and is sensitive to earthbound ghosts, also versed in the latest paranormal technologies, which are explained in the books. Together, they have taken readers to some of the most haunted places, intimately getting to know the ghosts and discovering secrets hidden for decades.
Each book in the series provides a history of the location, along with photographs and sometimes sketches made by Gutro of ghosts he connects with. The books are available on Amazon in paperback, e-book, and audiobook formats. For more information about Wilson Castle, visit www.wilsoncastle.com or call 802-773-3284 to arrange a visit.

By presenting a methodical approach—combining mediumship with technology—the authors may encourage a more open-minded discussion about life after death and the existence of ghosts. Additionally, the book shines a spotlight on Wilson Castle, potentially boosting tourism and interest in Vermont's historical landmarks.
