Things That Go Bump in the Night Hardcover by Louis C. Jones, 1st Ed
Located in valatie, NY
Things That Go Bump in the Night Hardcover by Louis C. Jones. Hill and Wang, NY, 1959. 1st Ed hardcover with Mylar covered dust jacket. Contains more than 200 stories of the restless dead, most from around New York state; each of the six chapters is made up of a continuous flow of narrative. Ghosts, in various forms, are seen and talked about all over the world. People who have recently come to America, as well as those whose families have lived here for generations, tell ghost stories, and it is this basic American folklore that Dr. Jones has collected and retold. Included are stories about haunted houses, murder, murderers, revenge, suicide, and the hungers that bring the departed back to their earthly haunts. The chapter on haunted history, containing more than forty stories, is a kind of spooky chronology of American history. The stories begin with the Indians, tell of the French and Indian wars, the Revolution, the early days on New York State's Erie Canal, Martin Van Buren...
