The fearsome Chupacabra stalks the desert valley, while a grandson wanders far from the ranch. The woman whos just moved to the neighborhood wears strange sunglasses after dark. What could be behind them? A man picks up a hitchhikeronly to discover that his passenger is not human. Kids of all ages will find chills and thrills in these tales of the weird, the macabre, and the mysterious, all collected from the lore and legends of the Lone Star State. In addition to Skinwalker, the authors most requested school concert story, this new volume adds spine-tingling twists on the account of La Llorona, the weeping woman, said to be the worlds best-known ghost; the classic tale The Moneys Paw; the story of The Screaming Banshee Cattle of the Night Swamp, and seven others. Told with humor and lively modern-day detail, these renderings by veteran storytellers not only please and entertain but preserve a wealth of folklore from a culturally diverse region of the country.
