I'm not sure how old fashioned the books are, Molly! Pepper is definitely a modern woman--and she's got the wardrobe and the attitude to prove it! But the stories are nice and ghostly.
Kai, love the sound of an 1885 house. I, too, believe there must be energy from all those years still residing in places like your house. How can a place not pick up the vibrations of all that's happened there?
Late here in Ohio. Will check in again tomorrow! G'night, all! Sleep tight. Watch out for things that go bump in the night!
Cool railroad ghost story, Chris! Glad you like the Pepper books. As far as dreaming about people who have passed, I've heard those called "visitation dreams." I've had them, too, and once, had to tell a newly departed uncle that he was, indeed, dead. He hadn't quite gotten the message yet!
Teresa, love the idea of a haunted inn in Maine. How cool would that be!
Ivy, I've heard much the same comments about "Tombs of Endearment." Lots of people were sorry to see things not work out between Pepper and Damon.
All, so much fun to hear who believes/who doesn't. As far as haunted houses...if you mean those phoney, gory ones at Halloween...yuck! I don't get it.
It's amazing, isn't it? A while back, nobody talked about ghosts much except for "weird" people. Now, there are so many people who are interested. I was at a wedding on Saturday. . . and found people to talk about ghosts with! I think it's interesting that people are finally opening up to the possibilities. And speaking of that...anyone here ever visit Lily Dale, New York?
Too funny . . . I've been asked to guest blog here in a couple days, and I wanted to check and see what other writers were blogging about. Who do I see first but you, Emilie! And a post about friendship. A perfect morning pick-me-up.
