In Haunted Halls, the first book-length interpretive study of college ghostlore, Elizabeth Tucker takes the reader back to school to get acquainted with a wide range of college spirits. Some of the best-known ghosts that she discusses are Emory University's Dooley, who can disband classes by shooting professors with his water pistol; Mansfield University's Sara, who threw herself down a flight of stairs after being rejected by her boyfriend; and Huntingdon College's Red Lady, who slit her wrists while dressed in a red robe. Gettysburg College students have collided with ghosts of soldiers, while students at St. Mary-of-the-Woods College have reported frightening glimpses of the Faceless Nun. Tucker presents campus ghostlore from the mid-1960s to 2006, with special attention to stories told by twenty-first-century students through e-mail and instant messages. Her approach combines social, psychological, and cultural analysis, with close attention to students' own explanations of the significance of spectral phenomena. As metaphors of disorder, insanity, and school spirit, college ghosts convey multiple meanings. Their colorful stories warn students about the dangers of overindulgence, as well as the pitfalls of potentially horrifying relationships. Besides offering insight into students' initiation into campus life, college ghost stories make important statements about injustices suffered by Native Americans, African Americans, and others.

Kasey doesn't understand why her grandmother was so against having children in the house, why the old woman even stayed in the guest quarters in the back instead of within the stately home. But after her grandmother's death, Kasey finds herself to be a single mother with no place to stay and must move with her son, Max, into the main house. It's her dream to transform it into a bed and breakfast. Before they've even finished unpacking, Kasey wakes to Max standing over her bed at night, talking about the woman in his closet. And a few days later, he's gone. Simply vanished. But it isn't long before Kasey begins to suspect Max is within the walls of the house, and the woman in the closet knows how to reach him. Will the ghost help Kasey, or will she find out for herself why her grandmother forbid children from entering the haunted halls?
