Spooky Great Smokies | Free Book
The eastern side of the Smokies abounds with spooky tales, like the story of a Shadow Woman who appeared to a farmer each morning and evening to beg for a cup of milk. Skinned Tom is another East Tennessee haunt, though his is a sinister tale that warns the unfaithful to steer clear of local lover’s lanes for their illicit trysting.
From the farmer who finds a Cavern of Skulls to a moonshiner who makes a deal with a water demon; and the Half Shaved ghost seeking vengeance to the first (and only) meeting of the Asheville Ghost Club, the Great Smoky Mountains and its foothills abound with spooky tales. My favorites are in this collection.
About the Author
Author S.E. Schlosser has been telling stories since she was a child,
when games of "let's pretend" quickly built themselves into
full-length stories. A graduate of the Institute of Children's
Literature and Rutgers University, she also created and maintains the
website AmericanFolklore.net, where she shares a wealth of stories
from all 50 states, some dating back to the origins of America.
Artist Paul Hoffman trained in painting and
printmaking, with his first extensive illustration work on assignment
in Egypt, drawing ancient wall reliefs for the University of Chicago.
His work graces books of many genres - children's titles, textbooks,
short story collections, natural history volumes, and numerous
cookbooks. For Spooky New England, he employed a scratchboard
technique and an active imagination.
