<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Dead presidents, swamp monsters, and spying spaceships in tales from the Buckeye State.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Dead presidents, swamp monsters, and spying spaceships figure prominently in this collection of eerie tales from the Buckeye State. From across the plains to the metropolitan centers of Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati come a variety of stories and legends, including the phantom in Dayton's Woodland Cemetery who perches atop his tombstone, the pitiful spirits of the Millfield miners, the fearsome ghost of boatman Mike Fink, and many more.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Reading line: Eerie tales and spine-tingling stories from the Buckeye State Things that go bump in the night, disembodied voices, footsteps in an empty stairwell, an icy hand on your shoulder...let your imagination run wild as you read about Ohio's most extraordinary apparitions, sinister spooks, and bizarre beasts. You may know of the wicked witch of Westerville and the Bairdstown curse, but perhaps you haven't you heard about: a vampire cat that killed small animals for their blood and stalked school children in Geneva; the Cleveland gypsy fortune-teller who attributed her startlingly accurate predictions to her unborn child...for several years; the Black Swamp's dreadful Swamp Monsters, whose victims bore signs of gruesome mutilation; and Mary Jane Anderson, whose "second sight" was both a gift and a curse.
