Packed with more than 150 haunted vacation destinations, this guide covers it all--from old hotels in Austin to spooky cemeteries in the North Texas Prairie. Intended for those having a healthy and light-hearted interest in all things supernatural, The Complete Ghostly Guide to Haunted Texas Vacations is the perfect companion for those seeking a paranormal experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book!, October 2, 2002
By A Customer
This is a fun-to-read, informative book full of interesting ghost stories. It can be used for informative, historical reading or for pure enjoyment.

After reading "Haunted Texas Vacations," my husband and I set out on our own ghost hunts in San Antonio, Spring and Jefferson and, I'm happy to report, we were privileged to experience first-hand a couple of unexplained phenomena mentioned in Ms. Farwell's writings because we knew exactly where to look.

Please give us more, Ms. Farwell!

5.0 out of 5 stars a must -have book for texas ghost hunters, December 14, 2002
By ERICK E ZETINA (KATY, TX United States) - See all my reviews
this is the first book i ever purchased about ghost hunting exclusively in texas. i was impressed with the detail that the author included in her book. every bit of information that you need in order to conduct ghost hunting trips in Texas is included here. i have purchased a couple of books after this one that dealt with texas ghosts but they fall short of Haunted Texas Vacations.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book!!, March 13, 2002
By A Customer
This was my first really good book on haunted places. Anyone who is interested in local (Texas) ghost stories just has to read this one. I am planning my vacation around some of these towns and I am very excited.

This book is so well written that it held my interest for hours and gave me quite a chill more than a couple of times. The way the author put Texas in sections made it even easier to find a particular area I was looking for. Although I was looking for San Antonio, I found there are all kinds of interesting places in between and beyond. I intend to eventually visit them all.

I would recommend this book to anyone interested in our haunted history or just a great ghost story.

This is a great book to take on a trip to add that extra worldly dimension to your vacation. The book divides Texas into six regions. Read more
