Seems to be more historical information than ghost stories to me, but still a good & worthwhile read.

I haven't visited all of the towns mentioned, but it's interesting to read these stories while in TN. Nothing in here really is nightmare inducing unless your super afraid of ghosts/ghost-stories... No demons, or poltergeists or anything that spooky in these stories.


This is a neat little library book that I borrowed; and not a won book, something I purchased, or a gift. There's also a bonus crossword puzzle at the end of the book (I mentally went over the squares to fill in the blanks as I wouldn't write in a library/borrowed book & was too lazy to get a piece of paper).

Even if you don't believe in anything supernatural, but want a short book on a little history of Tennessee or information about grave digging over the years & how it has changed this might be a good read for you.
