Here are some of my favorite authors that have great ghost stories! CC Wood, CC Dragon, Carolyn Ridder Aspenson (her ghost stories are a hoot!), Danielle Garrett, Bobbi Holmes, J.A. Whitney, Angie Fox, Rebecca Patrick Howard (she has a great series called Tamyrns Camera), E.J. Copperman (another great series), Juliet Blackwell, Leigh Perry, Morgan Best, P.J. Alderman, and Heather Grahman (her earlier ghost stories are great, but later on she get’s more into writting Police/FBI stuff which I don’t like.)…?
