Spooky Colorado: Tales Of Hauntings, Strange Happenings, And Other Local Lore, First Edition - Paperback
by S. E. Schlosser (Author), Paul G. Hoffman (Author)
Tales of hauntings, strange happenings and other local lore throughout the Centennial state!
Pull up a chair or gather 'round the campfire and get ready for twenty-five creepy tales of ghostly hauntings, eerie happenings, and other strange occurrences in the state of Colorado. From Lord Dunraven's ghostly skirt-chasing and the canyon where the White Lady walks to ghosts who send telegrams and the hot springs where Doc Holliday breathed his last, the stories in this entertaining and compelling collection will have you looking over your shoulder again and again. Colorado folklore traditions are kept alive in these expert retellings by master storyteller S. E. Schlosser and through artist Paul Hoffman's evocative illustrations. You'll meet ghosts and monsters, hear things that go bump in the night, and feel an icy wind on the back of your neck on a warm summer evening. Whether read around the campfire on a dark and dreary night or from the backseat of the family van on the way to Grandma's, this is a collection to treasure.
S. E. Schlosser has been telling stories since she was a child, when games of "let's pretend" quickly built themselves into full-length stories. She created and maintains the Web site AmericanFolklore.net, where she shares a wealth of stories from all fifty states, some dating back to the origins of America. Paul Hoffman illustrates books of many genres--children's titles, textbooks, short story collections, natural history volumes, and cookbooks. For the Spooky series, he employs a scratchboard technique and an active imagination.
