5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the bunch, October 10, 2000

By	Steven S. Vrooman (Seguin, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a collector of local ghost books, I picked this up on a trip up the California coast. Senate is really the most entertaining author in the genre, rivalled only by Hans Holzer. In contrast to other regional ghost tale collectors, Senate presents his tales in the first person, as he and his colleagues investigated them. This is in contrast to the typical method of simply presenting the direct accounts of regular folks who've had paranormal experiences. It makes the book much more engrossing and at times quite creepy. The volume is slim and so are the accounts, but especially if you are drawn to fictional ghost stories, this book will definitely satisfy.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my best works, July 9, 2006

By	R.L. Senate "RL" (California) - See all my reviews

This was my first book published and one of my best. It took over four years to write the thing and all of the work was researched and done by me--the author. I didn't, like many writers of books on ghosts, crib from other older works. I wanted the book to reflect real ghost hunts. My mentor was the first true ghost hunter of the modern era--Hans Holzer. He blazed the trail that all others follow. I wanted to put into a book all of the haunted places I had found. I am still writing books with my two newest ones out this Fall 2006, "California Mission Ghosts" and "The Ghosts of Carson Valley, Nevada."
