Pulling Back the Curtain (Spirits Between the Bays… by Ed Okonowicz

Nice little collection of ghost stories. The author relates various stories that he's been told about his home state area. Stress on the word small an entertaining read for an hour or so. Wished he would have waited to put all the books in the series into one omnibus as opposed to several different very slim volumes.
