Authentic Appalachian ghost tales about caskets that visit and ghost-wagons, driven by the dead, who then disappear, mules and all.

A spectral wedding at a church near Jasper.

Item #509

Ghosts & Specters of the Old South, Nancy Roberts, 1984, 96 pp. $8.95

Haunted Inns of the Southeast, Sheila Turnage, 2001, photos, index, 228 pp. $12.95

Whether you like sleeping among spirits or simply enjoy a good chilling yarn, this is your guide to 90 mysterious places across 9 states. At the Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC, the author checks into room 545 and tries to solve the mystery of the “Pink Lady.” In Union, SC, guests at the Inn at Merridun may be joined in bed by the ghost of a little white dog. At the Andrew Jackson Hotel in New Orleans, the courtyard is a playground for the spirits of orphans who perished in a fire years ago. An extremely attractive and useful book if you’re looking for a room with a boo.

Item #557

Haunted Odyssey, Ghostly Tales of the Mississippi Valley, Jim Longo, 1986, photos, line art, 175 pp $23.95

2,000 miles of superlative ghost stories and tales of the supernatural! And great photos. Longo has a lot more nerve than I have: he went door-to-door in small towns asking for ghost stories. And he found them! One of the things I liked best about this book was Longo’s warm descriptions of people and places.
The Lemp family of St. Louis, haunted by depression and suicide, and their house, haunted by phantom horses clip-clopping on long-gone cobblestones and the face of a "monkey-boy" who shows up on photographs at the site. The ghost of a terminally-ill man who moaned pitifully in the basement where he tried to kill himself. The strange tale of an apple tree whose fruit always mysteriously disappear just before harvest. "Herman," an enormous African-American ghost. A ghost that sounded like a smart-alec parrot at the University of Missouri—St. Louis Library.
