Creepy Cat's Macabre Travels: Prowling Around Haunted Towers, Crumbling Castles, and Ghoulish Graveyards Paperback by Katherine Kerestman

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Katherine Kerestman's book is a masterful tour of creepy places that makes the reader want to see every one of them. From Dracula's Castle in Romania to the Bell Witch Cave in the hills of Tennessee, the descriptions in this volume will grip the reader and guide the reader into an eerie and rewarding experience. The descriptive power of Ms. Kerestman is incredible -- I felt as if I were walking through every location she described in the book. It made me want to see all the places I have not seen and revisit those I have. This volume is every bit as good as the best of the classic nineteenth century travel narratives. I cannot recommend it highly enough. You would count yourself lucky to own and read this book.
