5.0 out of 5 stars Fun book!, April 8, 2003

This review is from: The Ghostly Gazetteer : America's Most Fascinating Haunted Landmarks (Paperback)

I'm the owner of one of the apartment houses that are listed in this book. It's a private residence, so out of respect for my tenants' privacy, I won't specify which one.

Even though I wasn't the owner at the time this book was published, I can confirm that one of the families living there is still experiencing occasional phenomena. Granted, it's nothing as extreme as the incidents detailed in the book by a few of the former tenants, but it's still enough to remind them that not every noise in the dark or slamming door has a neat and tidy explanation.

Overall, this is a fun book. If you're looking for a good book for late night reading, I'd recommend this one.

This has got to be one of the most interesting books on ghostly phenomena out there to date! The format used by the author for each story in the book was creative and is something I have yet to see in other books on the subject of ghosts. Because the format was unique, it made the book very interesting and such a pleasure to read! For those looking for good ghost stories to read without getting bored, this book will not dissapoint you. An excellent read!
