This book is not your typical ghost story book. It tells the stories of "haunted" places throughout the areas along the coast from Wilmington, North Carolina to Savannah, Georgia. There is much history contained within this book in relation to the southern mansions in the aforementioned areas and the prominent families in those areas. Worth reading.

Interesting book but far too short

This book was very interesting but it did deal with many murders that were over a hundred years ago. i wish it dealt with murders that were at least within the past 50 years. The one that was most interesting, probably because I live near Winston-Salem and have visited the Reynolda House, was the murder of Smith Reynolds. Still unsolved after all these years.

I got this on my first trip to South Carolina, back in... I think it was '97? God, I was so young. Anyway, it's an interesting little collection of folk tales and legends from the Carolinas. They were obviously not something I'd come into contact with before, so I can't answer as to whether or not it's a representative collection of the kinds of stories that were passed down in that region, but I thought it was interesting.
