13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey
13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey | Kathryn Tucker Windham, Margaret Gillis Figh
7 posts | 3 read | 6 to read
Jeffrey is the mischievous 'something' that has headquarters in the Windham home in Selma. He first made his presence known in October l966, and since then he has continued, at irregular and infrequent intervals, to clump down the hall, slam doors, rock in a chair, frighten the family cat (now deceased--through no fault of Jeffrey), move heavy pieces of furniture, cause electronic equipment to malfunction, and hide objects.He frequently accompanies Mrs. Windham on her travels, and tales of Jeffrey's antics are widely recounted. 'Nobody has ever been afraid of Jeffrey.' Mrs. Windham says. 'He is very convenient to have--we blame everything that goes awry on him. His only purpose for existing (if that word is proper) is to prod me into collecting and preserving 'true' ghost stories from throughout the South.'

@megzlynn review is out.
"There are stories about a ghost steamboat, a hole that won‘t stay filled, and a ghost that haunts his grave and is always ready to dance....This is a fun read if you love local folklore."

I don‘t usually read non-fiction. I also normally don‘t reread books. This one is an exception to that rule. I had a teacher that would read this to us on Halloween and I loved it. So I decided to give it another try. I still love it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is so much more than ghost stories. It is a trip around the historical and imposing homes of Alabama, and learning about families they belonged to.

Thanks @Kimzey for introducing me to this book ☺️

Now that I am awake, here are some better pictures of my #secretsantagoespostal #wintersolsticebookexchange gifts!

@Kimzey did an amazing job of putting together this Alabama themed collection, somewhere I am looking forward to learning more about! The cotton angel is wonderful, and I love the personal touch you have added to everything.

I can't wait to try some of the recipes, and my partner has requested that we try out cheese straws first 😉
