Title: Frightful Deliciousness.
Review: The photos are stunning, the introduction gives a sneak peek into paranormal encounters. The recipes are based on haunted places and you're given background and photo of the people and places that inspired the dishes. Definitely things I would make, from downhome dinners to epicurean delights, and some apparitionally inspires aparatifs . I would recommend this to be on everyone's book shelf!

Title: Most unique cookbook
Review: This is an excellent coffee table book for Halloween, perfect for the paranormal or ghost enthusiast. Amy includes the historical facts of each of these haunted locations, along with a recipe, that was either served and or is still on the menu today. A section of the book, Amy lists the types of paranormal equipment that can be used during an investigation, along with the different types of paranormal experiences you may encounter. Amy shares her own personal experiences of each of these famous haunted locations which makes this book a good read. At the end of the book, Amy offers up several themed feasts, there's something for everyone. For the history buff, a civil war feast & a turn of a century gala. For the more macabre, there is a blood curdling brunch & a last meal. I highly recommend this book. The photography is beautiful, one you will proudly display. Your guest will thoroughly enjoy thumbing through and reading the many stories within.
