Book Reviews of Haunted Places in America: A Guide to Spooked and Spooky Public Places in the United States
Book Review: A Spooky Historical Read!
Summary: 4 Stars
I have nearly finished reading this book and have really enjoyed it. Its not a conventional ghost book listing lots and lots of hauntings. Instead the author starts each story by giving a detailed historical account on the place in question leading up to the point where the ghosts and legends start - taking each State in turn. The actual ghost story part in some cases is rather short and tucked in at the end. And there are no illustrations. But the colourful and interesting way the book is written makes up for this and I now realise how little I knew of American history! The addresses for each location are given and, where necessary, information on how to arrange a visit. If you're interested in history and like a mystery this book is for you. And its excellent value for money too.
