Great Regional Paranormal Book:The Granny Curse and Other Ghosts and Legends from East Tennessee

As a paranormal investigator and someone who,loves Tennessee, I just finished reading the best book I have ever read about Tennessee hauntings. "The Granny Curse and other Ghosts and Legends from East Tennessee" is an extremely well-written and researched book by Randy Russell and Janet Barnett that is filled with short and fascinating stores.
I can't recommend this book enough! - And it doesn't matter where you live. These are ghost stories you'll find fascinating and will hold your attention. 5 out of 5 stars!

ABOUT THE BOOK: Witches who fly down chimneys. A chair that won’t release its occupant until a drop of blood stains the floor. A mountain that grew―and continues to grow―from the grave of a woman who was larger than life. The ghost of a woman who jumps on the bumpers of cars driving past the graveyard where she is buried. An apple tree that growls at people who pick its fruit. A woman who rose from her grave each night to get food for a baby born to her after she was buried. A peach tree that grows on the head of a deer. These and other legends and ghost stories handed down for generations are contained in this collection of 25 tales from East Tennessee.
For several years, folklorists Randy Russell and Janet Barnett have taught a course about Southern folklore at the North Carolina Center for Advancement of Teaching in Cullowhee, North Carolina. Russell is also the author of several mysteries, including Edgar Award nominee Hot Wire.They live in Asheville, North Carolina.
