A Little Book of Little Ghost Stories

A Little Book of Little Ghost Stories is a collection of traditionally styled short ghost stories. Set in modern times, the tales are told in the time-honored fashion of long-established ghost stories we heard as a youth that kept us awake in the dark. Employing the conventional premise that those who have passed on retain their essential human characters, these stories take you on a voyage of the paranormal cast in familiar environments, instead of the unrealistic, hyper-dramatic Hollywood concoctions that have evolved in recent years. From an old man remembering a traumatic experience during his tour of duty in Vietnam to a modern real estate saleswoman trying to sell a house to a late night customer, these storylines flow from the themes and routines of our everyday lives. Told in brief, evocative accounts, the stories focus on the ancient technique of telling a quality tale that speaks to our human natures as opposes the theatrical staging of far-fetched supernatural exploitations so common in present day productions.
