Ghosts of the Old West, Earl Murray, 1988, index, 244 pp $14.95
newinkl3.gif (884 bytes)
Ghost towns and desert horrors like the Snake People—feared by the Apache, the disembodied woman’s head that floats around the Lost Trail Hotel, the mysterious Little People of the Pryor Mountains, little Millie Pratt who died tragically at the Old Pratt Hotel in the 1880s and still searches for her mother. Strong writing; strong stories.

Don’t be fooled by the page count and the picture-book format. Here are 14 mostly contemporary stories from Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas, all new to me and all from places you can visit. The dead soldiers of Fort Concho, Augusta, the little girl ghost of the Stone Lion Inn, who covers her dolls to keep them warm. "Woody the Imp," a pint-sized phantom who haunts the St. James Hotel in Cimarron. The seventeen spirits of the Bird Cage Theatre in Tombstone. Written for young adults, but nice color photos of the sites (although the double-exposed "phantoms" are a bit obvious) and an excellent introduction to some ghostly vacation spots.

A vein of gold-lust runs throughout these stories of prospectors and prostitutes; Chinamen and criminals. There's the ghostly prospector who still warns trespassers off his claim and a red-headed floozy who plays a whorehouse piano in the Nevada City Historical Museum. From lynch-mob victims to ghostly gamblers, this is a very enjoyable book. There is also a map showing the sites of the stories.
