4.0 out of 5 stars
This book was an entertaining read...,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Up the Back Stairway (Paperback)
I ordered this along with "Horror In The Hallway" and I was impressed with both books. I've read several of this author's other books, and I generally enjoy them...though I could do without ANY of the "legends" filler that he sometimes resorts to. These two books had enough really interesting and scary "true" ghost stories to make it worth my while, and I really liked the design and cover art.

This review is from: Up the Back Stairway (Paperback)
I've read & enjoyed this author's previous & subsequent books in this series. They're fun & informative in that you learn about the Delmarva Peninsula & its ghostly history, folk lore & people's present day stories of their experiences with ghosts. Always fun to read Okonowicz's tales.
