I bought this as a gift, but ended up keeping it!
I bought this a couple of days ago as a gift for a friend's Halloween birthday party, but one rainy afternoon and three coffees later and it looks like I'll have to find her another gift! This book is written like a collection of short stories that are easy to read and leave you wanting to know more about this intriguing family. It's a captivating page-turner that is guaranteed to raise the hairs ...

Penguin Classics, 2006

The Premier Haunted House story
"No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; ...

A Real Page-Turner from Beginning to End...GREAT!!
On a recent family vacation to Williamsburg, my 9-year-old daughter was looking for fiction works with a Williamsburg backdrop to enhance her trip. This was one we came across. I was skeptical at first because of the ghost theme, so I started reading it. I only intended to read enough to discern if it was appropriate for her, but I could not put it down and ended up reading the entire book. ...

Joanne Austin

Sterling, 2006

Reminds me of the old days...
Weird Hauntings by Joanne Austin is quite good for a book of ghost tale compilations. This is from the same team that does the entire "Weird" series of books (Weird U.S., Weird Arizona, etc.), and reminds me of the best of the books that I would find at my local library as a child with a voracious appetite for the macabre. Off the bat, the introduction by Ryan Doan in which he relates the fact ...

A Book Review From a Spiritridge Third Grader
You should definitely read this great book The Haunting of Freddy. This book is about a small hamster who has a huge adventure because whenever he writes a story, the characters spring to life! But those characters are causing a lot of trouble. Another reason why you should reason this book is because it will send chills down your spine! It is amazing how one tiny hamster writes stories and ...

Yearling, 2005

Petrified Plantation
Joan Lowery Nixon is a striking writer. I would read this book over and over again. She shows an evil mood, when she describes the mysterious evil that haunts the old plantation house. Nixon's style is mysterious murders, ghosts, and other things that go bump in the night. I would recommend this book to people who love a good spine-chilling, horrifying, spooky tale. The exposition could use a ...

simply fascinating
This book has so much detail in such few chapters. This story tells how Truman was first left to stay at Jenny's house..Also featuring the special tree house, the bone fence and the Sunday dinners. All these stories were wonderful. I've never read such interesting, real detail about Truman's life..this book is a must have for every Capote fan. Way to go Marie

Haunting At Home Plate
In this story I have some things to point out.The setting was mostly at Phantom Limb Park,which was the place for the Dodgers team's baseball practices and games.Most players did not like playing at Phantom Limb Park becase it was to spooky for them, and they thought there was a ghost living there.In this story the main characters are-Mr.Conger, Andy Kirk, Gannon, Mike Nelson, Nelson's father,and ...

By far the best book I have read!
OK, I have ready numerous books in effort to learn more about the afterlife. I enjoy reading books about families and how the cope with it. I personally enjoy books dedicated to one haunting. However this book gave me good stories about some people and the most important part of the book: TALKS ABOUT LIFE AFTER DEATH AND WHAT THE SPIRITS SAY. I can't explain how much detail Hazel Denning ...

Puffin, 2005

Great story, wild characters, laugh out loud situations
Be aware that there are 3 books with the exact same story word for word. "The Haunting of Granite Falls", "The Haunting of Hiram C. Hopgood", and "The Haunting of Hiram" are all the same story by the same author. Just a different title and different cover art, same book inside. This is not the author's fault by the way, it is just that 2 publishers have the right to publish, Puffin and Macmillan, ...

Kay Hooper

Bantam, 2007

A Shorter, older version, but good.
This is a shorter, less scary version of her later books but the romance is there. It's well written and is a good introduction to her style for those who haven't read her yet. I'm so glad that her earlier books are be republished. Think this one almost has me current. I'm still catching up with Ms. Hoopers older books - started reading her books with "The Wizard of Seattle" and have loved ...

Three Rivers Press, 1998

Absolutely Hilarious!
Absolutely hilarious. For example, from "Appendix B: Sample Questionnaire for Ghosts" Are you frequently tired, weak or cold? Have you ever walked through a wall by accident or felt invisible? Does this seem strange to you? What do you like least about being a ghost? . . . and for those spirits unaware of their state of existence . . . I believe that you are a ghost. How does that make you ...
