*sigh* First, none of these were scary. But the main reason I bailed were two stories that just didn‘t sit right with me. One depicted an enslaved person as the narrator and she acted like it was perfectly fine between her and the family that enslaved her, and another enslaved person made the ghost angry so they sold her. Then another seemed to sympathize with the confederates during the Civil War. So yeah, no thanks. 🤢

A bit under the weather so I‘ve spent most of the day resting… loving my new mug, and these spooky tales aren‘t scary at all so far but still fun.

I think it‘s a perfect time to read this one. I got it during our trip to the DMV area in the summer.
