The Haunted Pram and other True New England Ghost Stories by Edward Lodi

The haunted pram: And other true New England ghost storiesThe haunted pram: And other true New England ghost stories by Edward Lodi
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

It's a mixture of ghost stories either written by the author or excerpts from other ghost stories. The book lacked flow and was hard to keep interest. It seemed to be a mixture of real New England ghost lore or fictionalized stories which made the book hard to follow. I wished it had chosen one way or the other. I was kind of disappointed by this approach. I'd only recommend for hardcore New England paranormal fans which may get something out of this.

Haunted Massachusetts by Thomas D'Agostino

Haunted MassachusettsHaunted Massachusetts by Thomas D'Agostino
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An interesting look at the paranormal activities of Massachusetts. It also has some history mixed too although. Kind of poorly edited and fact checked(the well known Benjamin Church was a Captain not a General in the King Phillip War. It even said Captain in related picture which was humorous.). Even a few spelling mistakes I noticed. It's an easy reading book otherwise but does seem to speculate and dramatize in an almost amateurish way. It's also a good local guide if you'd like to go exploring these places during the Halloween season.
