| 1 | The Little Book of True Ghost Stories | 2011 | Echo Bodine | Buy |
The Little Book of True Ghost Stories (2011) collects accounts from Echo Bodine’s long career as a psychic and medium in Minneapolis. It is short by design, a compact gathering of stories rather than a comprehensive survey, and reflects the kind of cases Bodine has encountered over decades of working with people who believed their homes or lives were being disrupted by spirits.
The stories are presented as genuine, drawn from her own files and memory. They are not dramatised in the horror fiction sense; Bodine writes about ghost encounters the way a professional might describe unusual cases from their working life. Some involve residual hauntings in old buildings, others involve spirits who appear to have unfinished business. The approach throughout is practical rather than sensational.
Readers who have already read her longer books, like Relax, It’s Only a Ghost, will find familiar ground here. Those new to her work might find this a quicker entry point before moving on to her more detailed titles on the same subject.
