Pull up a chair or gather round the campfire and get ready for thirty-eight creepy tales of ghostly hauntings, eerie happenings, and other strange occurrences in Pennsylvania. Set in the Keystone State's big cites, rural communities, rugged mountains, and vast woodlands, the stories in this entertaining and compelling collection will have readers looking over their shoulders again and again. Pennsylvania's folklore is kept alive in these expert retellings by master storyteller S. E. Schlosser and in artist Paul Hoffman's evocative illustrations. Readers will meet the phantom drummer of Valley Forge, cheer on the ghost who haunts a bowling alley in Allentown, search for the mysterious jail cell handprint in Carbon County, and feel an icy wind on the back of their necks on a warm Pennsylvania evening. Whether read around the campfire on a dark and stormy night or from the backseat of the family van on the way to grandma's, this is a collection to treasure.… (mere)

It was really interesting but some of the stories were very vague. One of the towns in which a tale took place was near where I live, but no specific locations were mentioned. It could have happened anywhere. Quite a few of the stories were a little too far-fetched for my liking. ( )

Ms Schlosser traveled all around the State of Pennsylvania collecting local legends about supernatural happenings and retells them in a wonderful style. Most of the stoles are rather short, so it is hard to really get a feel for the author's style, but the collection is much better than Beth Trapani's Ghost Stories of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County.

If you are fan of local legends and a resident of Pennsylvania, you owe it to yourself to check this book out. Also suggest for fans of the supernatural and tellers of campfire tales. ( )
