Most of the stories I have heard before, like the legend of the Gray Man seen on Pawley's Island in SC since the 1800s and the Cherokee legend of the Little People. I liked the variety of the stories. The photographs added a nice flair, even though the authors admit to adding in the ghostly apparitions themselves. :) I don't believe that ghosts are real, but I do enjoy a good spooky story. This book is quite similar to others I have seen at tourist shops in the Outer Banks. Nice collection of area folk lore!
Nancy and Bruce Roberts have written several collection of stories, mostly about hauntings and lighthouses including Ghosts of the Carolinas and America's Most Haunted Places. I enjoy reading similar books while vacationing at Nag's Head or other areas in the Outer Banks. There are a lot of great ghost stories in Southern folk lore! This collection would definitely be a good beach read for kids and adults alike.… (mehr)
