An interesting and well-written collection of ghost stories connected with American Civil War battles, prisons, hospitals, and headquarters. The stories are arranged approximately in chronological order. Includes an appendix of haunted hotels and ghost tours arranged by state.

This book was really enjoyable. I loved gaining a new perspective and learning new things about the Civil War. My one complaint is that I wish there was more. I felt like the chapters would end right as they got into the ghost and left me yearning for more information. But, it was a fabulous Halloween read and definitely worth picking up.

I feel like there this would have been better had the stories been longer or they build up the emotions more. I don't get that feeling of "spooky" it feels more devoid of emotion.

A great collection of ghost stories from all across the South.

Some of the best tales of ghosts, mysterious lights, rumors of curses that seem to follow Southern families to their ruin, and even the exploits of Voodoo queens; Dixie Spirits travels through the South sharing the wealth of supernatural tales that make up the history of each state.
