“…while the words “adventure travel” may conjure up images of the remote or the foreign, a new book suggests that some wild rides are much closer to home. Zepke documents the supernatural in A Ghost Hunter’s Guide to the Most Haunted Houses in America. As she points out, “Who else but an adventurous and brave soul would dare to spend time in a haunted dwelling—and pay good money to do so?”
–Sarah Robbins, Publishers Weekly
“...Even if you don’t get a chance to visit each of these locations, the stories and the black-and-white photos are fascinating.

Terrance Zepke grew up in South Carolina knowing the tales of colonial pirates, Civil War legends, the impact of lowcountry voodoo, and the famous residents of weathered cemeteries…places you probably best not visit at night, She’s written books such as Coastal South Carolina: Welcome to the Lowcountry, Best Ghost Tales of South Carolina, Pirates of the Carolinas, and her latest book [series]…Terrance is one of the most schooled experts on paranormal in the United States.” –Rick Steves, Travel with Rick Steves
“…From Georgia to California, Terrance writes about places that are home to a ghost or two -- and tells the horrible tales that led to these creatures remaining close to where they died...Yawsa.” -Teresa Flatley, BoomThis! Magazine
“…Zepke herself has always loved a good ghost story and heard many as she was growing up in the Carolinas. Now she has many books recording not only the stories she loves but also the history and photos of the places named. These places have all been investigated and proven haunted by the most sophisticated modern scientific equipment..Each place Zepke writes about has all the tour contact information also and many black and white photos. A fun way to plan a trip, if you aren't afraid!”
