We tell stories of the dead as a way of making a sense of the living. More than just simple urban legends and campfire tales, ghost stories reveal the contours of our anxieties, the nature of our collective fears and desires, the things we can’t talk about in any other way. The past we’re most afraid to speak aloud of in the bright light of day is the same past that tends to linger in the ghost stories we whisper in the dark. —Colin Dickey, Ghostland: An American History in Haunted Places 👻🖤📖🕯✨ . . • When my brother and sister-in-law come and visit us from Savannah, one of my favorite things is getting to share some great creepy ghost stories. @mrs.scarden @kennyblueshoes . . • #geekyglowreadsgratitude @amberafterglowreads @thegeekyyogi . . • #allthebooksnov18 @thereaderbee @loriimagination . . #ghoststories #ghoststory #georgiaghosts #indielove #savannahghosts #savannahga #bookstagram #readordie #horrorhound #bookandfunko #lizsower #ghostsintheburbs #bookandcandle #amreading #currentlyreading #bookdragon #bookaholic #booktography #bookcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/BqcytbAnlg0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5lkyvx3if0dk
