Since I bought this book at the Historical Center in New Bern, I think I was expecting more North Carolina ghosts and legends. In fact, a good number of the stories from this book seem to take place in and around Georgetown, SC.

Not to say that there isn't some valuable storytelling here. Zepke opens with the Ship of Fire, which is directly connected to New Bern, then goes into Danny Bradshaw's experiences on the USS North Carolina in Wilmington. There were some stories I had not heard, which was nice. Also, I like how she gives exact locations for some of the stories with possible sightings for anyone interested in potentially seeing the Shoo-Fly ghost train or others.

Surprised the Maco Light didn't make the list, but the inclusion of the Pactolus Light (a new one on me) made up for it.

Definitely a few of these stories that make me want to research them more in-depth. ( )
