The House on Maplewood Street and Other Haunts William J. Smith

Every place has its unique story behind it, a place that has, through years, decades, even centuries of human inhabitance, developed a character all its own, through the many human events and experiences that went on there. This is especially true of so-called haunted house and buildings, in which the spirits of since-deceased people haunted said establishment, either because of unfinished business, or because said spirit has unfinished business to attend to. This is especially true of the places in the six, fictionalized short-stories in "The House on Maplewood Street and Other Haunts", whether it's a house, like the one in the title, and first story, or a hotel ("The Crestmoore"), a middle-school ("Left Behind in Middle School"), or even a ski-resort ("The Snowcat Lodge"), or even an entire town ("Town of the Dead"), as ghosts aren't limited to haunting edifices.
