Seeking the supernatural
Happy Halloween!!
I see you guys are a little shy with your storytelling, so I thought I'd share a few sites to get that imagination going.
American Haunting bills itself as "the historic and haunted guide to the supernatural," and has an entire page devoted to Maryland's spookiest sites.
From Antietam to Point Lookout, Maryland is filled with ghost stories. And if you have your own experiences, I'd love to hear about them. And then give you books.
Hint, hint, nudge, nudge.
And since I skimped on you with no Check It Out entry this week, I thought I'd share what the Horror Writers Association names as the quintessential reading list for all thrill-seekers.
If you can't trust horror writers, who can you trust?
Have a safe, happy and spooky holiday, Read Streeters!

Okay, I started to write this last night and gave myself the creeps, but I'll try again while it's sunny outside of my window...
Several years ago, a neighbor of mine--we'll call him Bill-- shot and killed his estranged wife's boyfriend and himself in his house on Halloween night. (We had never met the man or his family.) At the time, our son was three, and we, naturally, did not discuss the event in front of him.
Two weeks after the incident we were taking a walk, and as we passed the house, our son said, "That's where Bill lives." We asked him how he knew that, and he said, "He told me."
