About this listen
Old favorites such as "Mary Calhoun" and "The Vanishing Hitchhiker" are here, along with the ghostly mother who keeps her baby supplied with milk, the haunted mansion which was the model for Scarlett O'Hara's Tara, and stories laced with truly black humor.
For Ages 12 to Adult
©1991 Richard Young and Judy Dockrey Young (P)1992 August House Publishers, Inc.Editorial reviews
This collection of tales from the Southwest includes stories from Mexican-American, Cajun, Ozarkian and other traditions. The Youngs give the stories spirited, fast-paced narrations. Their voices are filled with suspense as the plots of the stories are quickly developed, but there are also touches of humor which is characteristic of scary tales from the oral tradition. The stories are scary - but not too scary - so that this audio presentation is satisfactory fare for middle graders to adults.

Tingly but not horrifying..
I heard many of these stories while growing up, but this was the first time I had seen them in one collection. Enjoyed listening to them again! Great stories, and nothing super scary - so kids would love these too! Perfect for the campfire!
Happy reading!

Pass on this one.
Not scary, and way too short to cost a credit. Save your credits for another one.

Not worth it
Corny with terrible narration. Not at all scary. Don’t waste your time listening to this book.
