Synopsis
Fred T. Morgan collected 20 tales that exemplify the best of this tradition. Some are scary, some are humorous. Some teach moral values. There's the story of Peddler Paul, who witnessed the digging of his own grave but was saved by a friendly spirit. There's the lovely Louise, who taunted male students at a local college. All the gothic machinery of traditional ghost lore is found here.
