Interesting guy, and his book

So Friday evening after work, I went to my local Kroger grocery store to get some flowers to make a bouquet to take my formal wedding pictures with. (We took them in a cemetery, by the way, very cool) So, sitting in the floral department was this guy with a huge sign with a couple of little flashing lights on it and a table full of books. After I picked out my flowers, I went over to check out what was going on, because I could have sworn I saw the word "haunted" on the sign.

Turns out his name is Byron C. Justice (awesome name, by the way) and he is a veteran scout master who has been telling scary campfire stories for years and years. He finally compiled all of his original stories into a book, included one traditionally retold story and got it published. He describes it as stories for ages 13 and over, for kids who have outgrown Goosebumps but aren't ready for Stephen King yet.

Anyone interested can order it from Amazon, it's called Haunted Camps, and I have really enjoyed my (autographed) copy. It's a great, spooky, easy, read, in short stories so if you don't have a lot of time or for people who don't read a lot.

Thanks for the recommendation.

I really like reading short scary stories. I'm definitely going to check it out.
