This book is pretty good although I don't think the tales contained herein are very spooky. intriguing yes, scary no. The most interesting story was about the Superstition Mountains located in Arizona. A secret treasure is rumored to be hidden somewhere in these mountains. Nobody has found it yet because apparently a curse rests upon the area which applies only to treasure hunters. People have vanished without trace, skeletons have been discovered and many other strange and unexplained events have occurred. Many of the places described in this book are open to the public as tourist attractions.
