We all have them. The dead won’t stay still. The departed won’t shut up. Do you see dead people? What do they want? Do you hear your name called when no one is there? Poltergeists may throw plates or slam doors, but hauntings can include anything that makes the hair on your arms stand up. This collection contains poems, stories, and essays to make you believe in spooks. Inside, you'll find writing that scares the hell out of you, moves you, or even makes you laugh.
