Helpful Score: 3

Four stars. I like Leslie Rule's ghost story collections over others of the same kind for several reasons. She interviews those who claim to have had the encounters and I like her in-depth, detailed, and emotion-filled recounts. I prefer them over the books stuffed with quick, summerized, and emotionless accounts of spooky happenings. The author includes many of her own b/w photos of the various haunted locations that do a wonderful job of adding to the fun and spooky flavor of her book! The author sometimes includes the psychic envolvement in her book's recounted tales, and I really don't have much faith in those who claim to be sensitive. I like hard, scientific evidence. The author will sometimes draw conclusions, or is quick to believe other's drawn conclusions of identities of ghosts, ect, when there just isn't any evidence to support them. There are several stories where there was mention of wierd, unexplainable phenomenon captured by the camera's of those experiencing the hauntings, but those photos are absent from the book. Makes me wonder if they actually happened and why they were not used as part of the book. Overall an easy and fun read!
