5.0 out of 5 stars
simply amazing...,
By JakeGuilbo@home.com (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ghosts along the Bayou : Tales of Hauntings in Southwestern Louisiana (Hardcover)
Allright. Ghosts right? Not me, no way. There is no reason why any of us should belive in ghosts right? Wrong. In this book by Ms. Word, you do belive. The reason you do is because this book is REAL. There are no made up stories and like Ms. Word said, all stories she has recorded have been told by the good ol' folks of south Louisiana. I had the good fortune for Ms. Word to visit my elementary school when I lived in So. Louisiana and I was one of the few who bought a copy and had her sign it. Almost 8 years later, I still have this book and as I go through college, these stories still have a firm place in my mind. Even though I no longer live in Louisiana, I can still go back with her book.

Yeah Right...,
By Michael Neese "MNeese" (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ghosts along the Bayou : Tales of Hauntings in Southwestern Louisiana (Hardcover)
Ok, no one is going to believe me, but I actually worked late one night for an Oil Tools Company that had purchased one of the properties in one of the stories. And, as a Computer Programmer was working there late one night. At about 1:00am? I went into the bathroom and the janitor came in and walked behind me exiting through another door. I thought that was the way out to the kitchen where the coke machine was...Empty toilet room. I searched the entire building thinking we had an intruder. No one around...but all the lights were on. (read the story)
I asked the other engineers the next day, 'Say, you guys ever see anything funny here at night?'. The room went silent, then one engineer asked me what happened. I explained. Then another engineer asked me, 'Mike? Didn't you know that this is one of the most haunted places in Louisiana?'. They told me about this book, and I ordered it, and afterward corresponded with the author. I knew the address which is not mentioned in the book, so maybe she believed me. I never believed in Ghosts till that night...and I never again stayed there after 9:00pm, when the 'real' janitors went home. I give this book 5 stars, cause at least one story? I KNOW is true!

Excellent Reading,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ghosts along the Bayou : Tales of Hauntings in Southwestern Louisiana (Hardcover)
These are no ordinary fictional stories that Ms. Word has made up. Each is real as told to her by people she interviewed in getting ready to write the book. Having been lucky enough to not only grow up in southern Louisiana but to have had the chance to see and visit some of the places she spoke of as well I know the stories to be true. It's worth your time to read this book. If you're a skeptic you won't be anymore by the time you're done with it.
