Treasure trove!

I discovered this book many years ago in my local library's 'occult' section, read it, loved it, took it out a couple more times, and promptly forgot about it. I recently remembered it, as my interest in New England folklore has come back with a passion, and purchased my own copy. Unlike other collections about the 'dark side' of New England, this book doesn't begin to lag towards the end. All of the stories are written by different writers with their own voices, so each tale is fresh and exciting. This book also doesn't recycle every story you've already heard. Sure, there's the bloody apples, but a few of these stories I'd never heard before picking this up. Have you ever heard about the town whose roofs literally vanished from above their heads one night? It saddens me that this book can be purchased for as low as a penny, but at least there's no excuse for not owning it! This belongs in the library of anyone interested in ghosts, New England, or the strange events that take place in our wild world!

Mysterious New England

My sister had this book years ago and I found the stories in it fascinating. I found a copy of it at a second hand book store and snatched it up. It's a great little primer on strange (but true?) historical stories from the New England area. As a previous commenter mentioned, it's worth it for the Lizzie Borden story alone. I keep it in our guest room to give our visitors a taste of local history.

Need to Print Again

I loved the book but have misplaced it! I really need to find this. It has great stories from our own back yards as well as a great Lizzie account (Borden!).
