A new collection of ghost stories from every corner of New Brunswick. Pull up a seat and listen closely-storyteller Steve Vernon has another collection of classic, bone-chilling tales to tell. Steve takes readers from one end of New Brunswick to the other, unearthing dark tales of strange happenings along the way-from the headless ghost that haunts those who pass through Johnville's covered bridge, to the spirit of a murdered man that guards long-buried treasure at Wolf Point. Drawing on both documented stories and legends passed on by word-of-mouth, Steve sets one spooky scene after another with a storyteller's attention to every creepy detail, and just a touch of wry humour. It's as though you're sitting beside him at the campfire, getting goosebumps as each story unfolds.
Steve Vernon is a popular storyteller and author of numerous books including Haunted Harbours: Ghost Stories from Old Nova Scotia. He is the resident fortune teller at Little Mysteries Bookstore in Halifax and participates in the Writers in the Schools program. He lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
