I’m not
sure if I believe in ghosts but after I read this guide to the most haunted
houses in America I’m pretty sure I won’t be staying overnight in any of these
places any time soon. For some reason this book completely creeped me out, but
in a good way. The author presents each house with some “fun” facts, the
history of the house, and the hauntings that have or are taking place there.
She also provides a few words about where the house is located and whether it
can be visited or not. Almost all of the houses have pictures attached which I
really enjoyed. It’s nice to be able to visualize the place where all of the
horrid and gruesome things happened that supposedly brought about the
hauntings. Ms. Zepke’s style of writing is entertaining and, unlike a lot of
guide books, the information is not dry or monotonous. Even if I never visit
any of these places, I enjoyed reading about them and the murders and deaths
that occurred there. This is due in part to the excellent writing style. It is
clear by Ms. Zepke’s writing that she has a keen interest in the subject of
ghosts and provides her own thoughts on the places in the book she has visited.
I was unsure whether this would format to my ereader due to the pictures but it
worked amazingly well. The cover and title will draw in anyone with an interest
in ghosts and the book will tell them where to find them.
