4.0 out of 5 stars Legends & Lore, July 28, 2000

By	Sophie Wilzig-Garcia (Florida) - See all my reviews

This book was fun and when followed by the actual Key West ghost tour that departs from the Concha Hotel, you will want to go back and read it again. It does not try to convice you or spook you, it just states as many facts as they were able to verify. The rest is left to you to believe or disbelieve. Fun reading, with short chapters. Good bedtime stories to read by yourself or to read out loud to your parter before going to sleep.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Ghost Book!, February 15, 2003

By	spicesea1 (Pensacola, FL United States) - See all my reviews

This is a great ghost story book of Key West. Pictures are excellent and add an authentic creepy reality to the stories. I also highly recommend the tour leaving from La Concha, it is awesome! I read the book after the tour and was surprised to find different stories in it that we had not heard on the tour. As a fan of ghost books and city tours, I can say that both were better than that of St. Augustine or New Orleans. 3 cheers for Key Weird!

4.0 out of 5 stars I changed my mind and I have to say..., November 12, 2004

By	L. Frantzen "Creep-ologist" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I liked this book. When i first read it it didn't do much for me. I read it a second time after the Key West Ghost Tour and I have to admit I liked it alot more. Most of the stories are great and somewhat creepy. I would tell anyone interested in some good ghost stories to get this book now. larrivlle was me before. Great book. Buy it.
