This book includes 15 true tales about a wide range of unusual creatures, including haunted horses at a thoroughbred stable on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, a ghost infested hotel in New Jersey, Bigfoot's visits to Maryland, sightings of the Snallygaster, Delmarva's first serial killer, the notorious Patty Cannon, and many more.

From Avalon and Ocean City in New Jersey, to Lewes and Wilmington in Delaware and in Baltimore, Reliance and Easton in Maryland, the dead still walk at night.

"If this collection doesn't give you a chill, check your pulse, you might be dead."
