In her third book of regional ghost stories, Rebecca Solomon presents the Black Patch of Kentucky in a different light from how it has been portrayed in history. The Black Patch is located in a sizable portion of southwestern Kentucky and northern Tennessee, where dark tobacco is grown. With the violent history of the Night Riders against the Planters Protective Association, there are bound to be impressions left behind, and probably more than a few ghosts. These stories, set in the small towns and country places so vital to the growing of tobacco even today, will chill you to the bone. You'll never look at a smoking tobacco barn or a field of dark tobacco quite the same again. Haunted barns and houses, demons, Native American ghosts, and a hairy beast, among other creepy delights, await you between these pages.
