From crumbling haunted houses to vanishing hitchhikers, mysterious churches to a ghost-ridden college campus, Roadside Revenants and Other North Carolina Ghosts and Legends is a delight for anyone who likes spooky ghost stories.
The author and his plucky band of ghost chasers have done the footwork and researched many of these haunted locations in Western North Carolina and the Piedmont. "Ghost Lights on Brown Mountain," for example, provides viewing locations for this phenomenon, which was once featured on The X-Files . For adventurers who wish to go beyond reading ghost stories, the author concludes with tips for would-be ghosthunters.
This quick, easy read is perfect for reading aloud -- perferably around a campfire in the woods on a chilly, overcast night.
A quick read and good for a little ghost story before bedtime. Stories are told in a rather matter-of-fact manner that give them a genuine feel, like a friend is telling you a story.
