Roadside Revenants and Other North Carolina Ghosts and Bright Mountain Books From crumbling haunted houses to vanishing hitchhikers, mysterious churches to a ghost-ridden college campus, Roadside Revenants and Other North Carolina Ghosts and Legends is a delight for anyone who likes spooky ghost stories. The author and his plucky band of ghost chasers have done the footwork and researched many of these haunted locations in Western North Carolina and the Piedmont. "Ghost Lights on Brown Mountain," for example, provides viewing locations for this phenomenon, which was once featured on The X-Files. For adventurers who wish to go beyond reading ghost stories, the author concludes with tips for would-be ghosthunters. This quick, easy read is perfect for reading aloud -- perferably around a campfire in the woods on a chilly, overcast night.
Praise for Roadside Revenants "Richly detailed descriptions of quaint locales haunted by the spooks and specters of the Blue Ridge are enough to send chills down the spine of any reader. Renegar does a magnificent job of passing on the local flavor, history and ghostly delights of his region." "If you like a little shiver in the dead of night, you’ll find plenty here to let your imagination run wild." “The best thing about the book is that its stories are fun. While Revenants refers to local figures and historical events, it is written in a breezy, conversational style that enlivens them. They sound like stories that might be whispered among friends late at night.”
