Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Growing up in the South I am fortunate to live close to Savannah, GA and St. Augustine, FL. I know the history of both well and although I've never visited Ohio I think that I would enjoy a road trip to some of the places mentioned.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. This had some potentially interesting local legends in it, but the writing turned what could have been spooky stories into bland little blurbs. Most of the legends felt rather hokey, perhaps because they lacked that dramatic embellishment that I've come to expect from horror stores. There were a few minor factual errors on the history of the sites that locals might catch, but most of them don't really detract from the haunting legends, just the historical accuracy. My qualms with the writing aside, it's an interesting guide to local haunting legends. I live in Cincinnati and it was entertaining to see the legends concerning places that I pass by on a regular basis talked about here. The handbook covers a nice variety of sites, so mostly anyone from the area should be able to recognize several of these spots. Overall, an interesting book for locals. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Having lived all my life in southwestern Ohio, most of these places are very familiar to me. Some I've spent a great deal of time in, and I've heard many of the legends already, so this was quite a fascinating read for me, and great for discussion with friends and family. Other than a few minor factual problems (i.e. Mother of Mercy High School became exclusively for grades 9-12 in the 1940s, not the late 1970s), I and my family have all really enjoyed this book. Ghost stories are always fun to read! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
The first book in the newHaunted Handbook line within the popularAmerica's Haunted Road Trip series,Cincinnati Haunted Handbook offers a plethora of eerie spots in the Queen City. Each of the places inCincinnati Haunted Handbook is presented in a two-page spread that includes directions, a brief history, details about the paranormal activity, and advice on seeing it in person. Sites are organized into sections, including schoolhouses, roads and bridges, hotels and inns, and others. From the winding curves of the spooky Buffalo Ridge Road to the ghost of Music Hall, from the moans heard by the Miamitown bridge to the wispy form that flits through Spring Grove Cemetery, this book offers creepy hideaways that even Cincinnati natives don't know about. Equally suitable as a travel guide or as a diverting read for casual dipping,Cincinnati Haunted Handbook sorts out what creeps and crawls in the Ohio night. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
