Dead of Summer: Night of the Living Dead of Summer

DEAD OF SUMMER is a beach-reading collection of true-crime, true-horror, and generally quirky weirdness from a group of writers who call themselves the Dead of Winter. If you like your sun and sand with a little cemetery mixed in, this is your book. We examine the symbols carved on gravestones, and look at a gallery of mourning jewels dating back nearly four hundred years. We recount the story behind several missing persons in Delaware County--and their link to motorcycle gangs and a screaming ghost in a nearby fort. And we examine the Thirteen Club--a group of superstition-busters who dine under umbrellas. Indoors. And we do it all with words, pictures, and a healthy dose of humor.
