Tales of hauntings, strange happenings and other local lore throughout the Sunshine state!

What better locale to consider for spooky happenings than the home of the Salem witch trials? From mysteries at sea to ghosts and unexplained footprints, you'll shiver your way through these mesmerizing tales. Set in the state's historic towns, charming old islands, and sparsely populated backwoods, the stories in this entertaining and compelling collection are great for the whole family.

There is a mystical quality to the land and sky in New Mexico. Places with long histories, such as New Mexico, breed superstition, carrying the memories, stories, and beliefs of those who have passed before. The state is such a notoriously superstitious place that real estate agencies post notices about whether a house is "truly" haunted, with pseudo-legal discussions about the need to disclose this information publicly. There is a haunted State Monument in Lincoln County, and a lovelorn ghost wanders through one of the state's national parks. There are ghosts who are friendly and fearsome. Stories that have become fables, and others that are fully believed. Haunted New Mexico will occasionally ask you to suspend belief, showing those cracks between what is real and imagined.

Things that go bump in the night, disembodied voices, footsteps in an empty stairwell, an icy hand on your shoulder...let your imagination run wild as you read about Wisconsin's most extraordinary apparitions, sinister spooks, and bizarre beasts. You may know of Lotta Morgan, Ghostly Lady of the Evening, but perhaps you haven't heard about: -A man driven crazy at the Summerwind Mansion after finding a mummified corpse in a drawer -The phantom acapella music of the Lost Spirits of Coolidge -The flying manbat known as mothman of LaCross -The mythical haunchies of Haunchyland who hung a man for discovering their underground tunnel system.
