5.0 out of 5 stars Even tops the tour!, November 20, 2001

By	Dennis Phillips "The Book Friar" (Bulls Gap, Tennessee USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

On a recent trip to Charleston I took the walking tour based on this book. The tour was great but the book is better by a mile. Even while standing just outside or in some of the haunted areas mentioned in this fine book one didn't get a feel for the story like you get while reading these stories. All of the hauntings are documented and have been seen by several people adding to the credibility of this work. Everyone who has ever been taken by the beauty and charm of this wonderful old city has to read this book. If you have never been to Charleston read this book and you will want to go there.

5.0 out of 5 stars A paragon of excellence!, January 11, 2001

By	Ben Halpern "bhalps" (Charleston, SC United States) - See all my reviews

I live in Charleston, and I've been on many of the ghost tours, even the author of this book's tour, and this book really brings the stories to life. The stories are very well written, and are very interesting. I didn't believe in ghosts before I read this book, but now I believe in them. I hope they make a sequal to this book with even more ghost stories, because I wouldn't think before buying it. I hope I can meet the authors of this book, because they sound like very interesting people. This book is definitly a paragon of excellence!!!

By	Matthew Steinberg (Charleston) - See all my reviews

I think that this is one of the best books on the Ghosts of Charleston. I live in the city, and I have not seen any book that even comes CLOSE!
