Great UP vacation read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I read this book several years ago while vacationing on a rainy, lazy summer day in a cottage on Lake Superior in the Porcupine Mountains. I've loved reading books like these since I was a child, along with bear encounter stories, on that one odd day of the week where the weather doesn't cooperate with my vacation plans. I'm not a believer in ghosts or ghost stories yet I find it interesting that many people convince themselves of these myths and how they evolve. I was a "true believer" as a young child, yet realized as I grew up that most believers as just really good at (and even enjoy) scaring themselves so I have fun with it. The legends are a fun thing to read about, especially if you're from Michigan yourself and are familiar with some of the places and events described. If you're so inclined, buy and enjoy.
Nice Work.

I bought this book because I am related to Minnie Quay. However, I started reading the other stories and found them to be quite fascinating. The Ghost of Minnie Quay has always been something of interest in our family, and Kuclo does an excellent job of telling Minnie's story.
Perfect for everyone interested!

Being the co-founder of the Michigan Anomalous Information Network, I am often asked by people "where would be a good place to start researching strange happenings in Michigan." This book is where I send them. Marion was a charming person and insightful writer. She explains stories and legends with a quick clarity that most writers lack. This is a must have book for anyone interested in Michigan and it's paranormal history.
It was a very interesting book

It was a good book and I believe in this type of thing so I couldn't put it down. I plan to try to visit some of these places.
