A noted folklorist spins a tapestry of spooky yarns involving haunted houses, ghostly visitations, midnight trips to the graveyard, and other chilling vignettes. Moody black-and-white drawings complement the stories, which range from humorous and playful to downright eerie. Helpful notes and a bibliography offer details on the tales' sources and background.
Dialects, folk speech, and slang were the particular interests of Maria Leach (1892-1977), a noted American scholar of folklore who wrote and edited books for adults as well as children. She spent a dozen years compiling her distinguished two-volume study, the Standard Dictionary of Folklore, Mythology, and Legend.
