Ghosts, Spooks, and Spirits of South Texas

This was my first book, published in 2006.

This is from Story 10, "Trespassers Will be Haunted." Be sure to read Ghosts, Spooks, and Spirits of South Texas to find out what happens in this book of stories inspired by true paranormal experiences of Texas residents.
